    The Statue of Liberty arrived in New York Harbor in 1885, 350 pieces in 214 crates. However, one part was exhibited earlier than the rest, at the Centennial Exposition in Pennsylvania in 1876, and then in Madison Square in New York City until it joined the rest of the statue. Which part was this?

    I read a book years ago about a man who was part god or godlike, or may have even been alien. He had the ability to heal himself and could grow new limbs and organs. I remember in one part, he was in ancient Mexico and was about to be made a human sacrifice. He grew another heart in a different part of his body and when the priest cut out his other one, he was able to survive. He then stood up and really scared the priest. I know this sounds strange, but does anyone remember the name of the book?
