Bill,
I think you're referring to Cocopeli (spelling?). He's a god of sexuality or libido or something like that. I'm not sure that he's the thing on on the head. I couldn't see it very clearly, though.

According to the little Irwin blurb on the ebay page, it's a peacock inlay, which was eventually replaced with the eagle inlay. I must say, I can't actually read it as a peacock . . .

Don't know much about the Dead, but the flute player referred to above might be Kokopelli (perhaps sometimes with one L). Dates back to the Anasazi, in what is now Colorado.
