Sun Wukong – aka the Monkey King – is a mythological warrior figure who is featured in many legends and can be traced back to the period of the Song Dynasty  (960 – 1279 AD).  He was known to possess immense strength and was a skilled fighter.  There are reams of stories about this character and they are quite fascinating.  Look it up:  http://historum.com/blogs/ghostexorcist/5300-story-sun-wukong-monkey-king.html .

 

This piece is a large statue…. much larger than normal.  It has lots of detail.  Although hollow, it has substantial weight.

 

A great warrior statue for the warrior in your soul.  Felt bottom.
