Johnson Park Raritan river. Stumbled upon the mother lode. They were everywhere, along with some sort of cloth flags, flower leis, and limes, lots and lots of limes.

Those figurines/statues were tossed into the river as part of a Hindu ritual/festival Ganesh Chaturthi. At the end of the festival, the figurines are tossed into the water to commemorate the creation and dissolving of life in nature. The statues used to be made of clay but are now made of plaster of paris. They are supposed to dissolve (if made of clay) but those that are not, seem to pollute the body of water they were tossed into. There were so many tossed into some rivers especially the Ganges, that fish died from the release of so many chemicals that were in and on the statues. It seems that the best best thing to do was to remove them from the water before they possibly polluted that section of the river. I looked this information up on Yahoo.
