Pooka,
That is definitely a Haitian fetish associated with Hoodoo (not VooDoo). Typically it would be placed on or near an altar. I am unable to date the piece without examining for tool marks, etc. If this is a late 20th century piece, it would be worth $200-$300. If it was a 19th century carving, it could easily go for more than $10,000
