The A'a statue on Lulutu Island is a wooden sculpture of the A'a god, made on the Pacific island of Lulutu in the Australian archipelago. The production period may have been between 1591 and 1647. In the early 19th century, this sculpture was presented by islanders to the London Missionary Society in memory of their conversion to Christianity. Afterwards, it was brought back to the UK and then exhibited at the British Museum. The image of A'a is one of the best surviving sculptures in Polynesia, and according to Julie Adams, director of the Oceania Collection at the British Museum, in the 21st century, the sculpture was considered an "international celebrity".
