Hawaiian Petroglyphs Puzzle

Although they look alike, the pieces of this puzzle are all different shapes from one another.  The pictures on the pieces are William Waite’s interpretation of various petroglyphs carved into stone which he documented on a trip to Hawaii.  There are 32 solutions if you allow some pieces to be turned upside down.  Since the pieces are blank on the back, that doesn’t look so great, so the tougher challenge is to find one of the 4 different solutions which have all 10 pieces face up. This is one of the better puzzles for using logic to find a solution.

• red alder and black walnut wood
• 10 pieces
• 32 solutions
• 5.5″ x 4″ (14cm x 11cm)
• difficulty level:  easier challenge 4 out of 10, difficult challenge 7 out of 10
