The fire in Fireball whiskey comes from Cinnamon. Cinnamon grows in various countries around the Bay of Bengal including Bangladesh, Burma, Thailand, and others, but the most famous source is Ceylon.

Kodiak is just the Aleuti word for "island". Kodiak Island is just "Island Island", etymologically speaking. Ceylon is an island. We may be on to something here.

"Frozen face" can be a face of someone who is trying too hard to control their emotions. That could lead us anywhere. It can also, however, refer to statues, "faces frozen in stone."

If we go with the Ceylon theory, there are some famous Buddhas and other statues on Ceylon. A particularly grand collection of ancient statuary can be seen at Polonnaruwa, an ancient city once capital of a kingdom. Some of the statues include:
Statue of King Parakramabahu

and this reclining Buddha, one of four huge Buddhas carved out of a single rock at the Gal Viharaya temple:

I'll guess Polonnaruwa, Ceylon (or Sri Lanka for the trendy).

Lol for the trendy. You are showing your age.

Congrats on getting with the program for Siam though.

Is it Maldives?

[Dukasaur]

Is it Maldives?

Not much cinnamon production in the Maldives. A little bit in the Seychelles, but still nothing to write home about.

I beg to differ. Both from a gourmand's point of view and from a historical point of view, Ceylon is the place. From a gourmand's point of view, Ceylon cinnamon is vastly superior to other cinnamons. It is definitely the gold standard if you take your palate seriously. From a historian's point of view, the spice immediately brings to mind the Dutch East India Company and its magnificent wars against the Portuguese and later the British, and definitely at Ceylon they were fighting for the cinnamon trade. Nobody cared about the low-grade cinnamon that came from Sumatra and Java. There, the battle was mainly over nutmeg, cloves, saffron, mace, and later coffee.

However, since this is your game I'll abide by your ruling. Since it's not Ceylon, we'll look at Sumatra, where, despite the low quality,60% of the world's cinnamon originates. Price beats quality, I guess.

Looking around Sumatra, I find few really famous statues. Best I can come up with is this bronze Buddha at Si Pamatung temple in Padang Lawas:

Ambon, Ambon Island

[yclee0206]

Indonesian rafts transported cinnamon directly from the Moluccas to East Africa (see also Rhapta), where local traders then carried it north to Alexandria in Egypt.

Drake left the Pacific coast, heading southwest to catch the winds that would carry his ship across the Pacific, and a few months later reached the Moluccas, a group of islands in the western Pacific, in eastern modern-day Indonesia.

From Wikipedia


So..... Molluccas?

[ConfederateSS]

--------Drake was just to mean OLD MAPS ...I could have used anyone from past centuries...
--------Ambon...NO...but you have the Idea. Keefie...
