Elephant from the lake

[baylorhall]

I found this in shallow lake water. My guess is that it was attached to a boat or something, but I have no idea why someone would do that. Someone on the site said it might be a Hindu Ganesh. Any ideas about this find? Thanks

It looks vaguely hindu. I seem to remember hindu objects showing up near water after being buried in some ceremony. Anyone else remember that thread?

There was a post 2 or 3 years ago about finding elephant figures in the water?? Tony

I am not able to search old posts.
Anyone want to send the link?

I am not sure what I am going to do, but I don't want to keep it. Hope that doesn't offend anyone, but in my life there is only one true God, who can be found in the Bible. I don't need any other gods.

Also not to offend anyone. The orange elephant doesn't look like the one's mentioned in the other posts. The orange one has a pedistal w/ what appear to be 2 holes for bolts or screws. Could have been Hindu religious symbol I guess but wouldn't bet on it.
Why not ask a Hindu? If religious ceremony is for the Sea or a river will a lake work? I don't know.
I wouldn't throw a cross I found in the lake back. I have no bad mojo from either idea. The Ol' Boy Upstairs knows what's in your heart no matter what name ya call Him.
