: Klingon word:   Hew
: Part of Speech: noun
: Definition:     statue

As used in canon:

  Hew vIHo'
  I admire the statue. KGT

  tam; Hew rur 
  quiet as a statue KGT

  Hew chenmoHwI'
  sculptor KGT

As seen in KCD, Pok's father Torghn had several interesting pieces of sculpture
in his house: {ghobchuq loDnI'pu'} "The Brothers Battle One Another,"
{ghochwI'} "The Tracker" and {'Iw 'Ip ghomey} "Blood Oath Circles".  

Worf had a small reproduction (*{HewHom "statuette"?) of {ghobchuq loDnI'pu'} -
showing Kahless and his brother Molor locked in hand-to-hand combat for "twelve
days and twelve nights" - in his Enterprise D quarters, which we saw in several
episodes.  He probably brought it with him to DS9, though I don't recall ever
seeing it there.
