I recently was given these by my father who does construction work. He said he found them while digging in Arizona, however his story has many holes and I don't believe he even knows where they actually came from, so they really could be from anywhere in the world. One really catches the eye as it has the male anatomy carved into it. This one is about 26" long. The second is just a carved sculpture of a person, not too detailed but heavy, about 24" long. The third seems to be some sort of carved serving plate, about 16" long. I do not know where else to go to find out any information about these artifacts so any information at all is helpful. Here is a link to a video of the three. Thank you all.

 

Thanks for your input but how can you say they are tourist pieces without seeing them in person? I have a gut feeling they are authentic. The style and carvings themselves are so intricate and old, especially the one with the male anatomy. Is there any other opinions out there?

Welcome to TNET! They look like they would be from the Pacific Islands area.
