    Super cool! Such an insane auction bid estimate on it though.

    I imagined it to be more simple than that. I wonder what the "face" on it represents.

    I think I know now. The face on the tube is a zemis - a Taino idol - who was an assistant which helped the user of the cohoba snuff to talk to gods.
