The sizes and number of the moai make me wonder if they weren't supposed to be "defending" or "protecting" the island's inhabitants from giants. I mean, you don't even have to step foot on the island to see them. I think that if this is the case, the makers of the moai wouldn't have to see giants but only to hear of them, maybe from some traveler/ trader who was also told stories of giants who were murderous and/or cannibals. They certainly would outnumber the occupants of most ships and if they were viewed from the water, they could be seen only as silhouettes, figures that look like huge men/warriors, always on guard. Just my wondering.

To me it remains a mystery that we can only speculate on. The fact that several of the statues weighed in around 150 tons I can't believe they were walked into place especially since the trip was downhill and it would take a army to move them.

There was a NOVA Documentary at least as far back as 2012, which started with a group of American engineering students speculating and ended with a feature-length film detailing their on-site experiments, on Easter Island, to prove it. Where so-called "educated Europeans" mocked and denigrated the natives of Easter Island for centuries, for the native "legend" that the statues walked the several miles from the quarry to the seaside, the students asked, "What if they mean the way you walk a refrigerator across the kitchen?" Turns out that's exactly what was done. They studied the "unfinished" statues around the quarry and discovered that each one was left with a pot belly, meaning a rounded "foot" with a bulging weight out in front, and they made a comparably weighted replica out of concrete. Then they tied ropes around the head, using the "eyes" as their anchor point, and had a team of 5 or 6 on the left and right side of each statue, pulling the ropes. The roads on Rapa Nui are graded into a wavy pattern, up and down, so that gravity assisted in giving the moving statues speed on the downgrade but kept that speed stable and controllable on the upgrade. A dozen teenagers and a couple of professors were able to move a 12-ton replica so easily that they reported it was just a matter of "steering" to keep the thing going the direction they wanted it to.

They were members of the Pulotu Empire from Moturiki Fiji who went to Tonga, then to Tuamotu Islands(whose underworld is Turikiriki) then went on to Rapanui(Easter Islands).. Led by a chief called Hotu Matua nd his crew members. They built all those statues and stone walls. That was the mystery of Rapanui revealed..As you can see a few more small islands near Easter islands called Motu Hiva, Motu One nd Motu Iti.. That Hotu Matua had the same mysterious attractive influence as Ratu Paula of Moturiki and earlier Tui Pulotus/ Tui Davetalevus of Moturiki where fish nd marine lives used to draw closer nd present themselves to the king or chief on dryland. That used to happen to Hotu Matua as well where turtles, lobsters nd other marine lives used to present themselves to him on to the dryland of Rapanui. As theres a chief Moai there on the far right with a crown was called the Tongariki (Tonga-riki)..Even the heavenly cellestial for this eastern Pacific islands was called the Sauriki(Sau-riki). Every Sau in Fiji nd the Pacific islands derived from Koya na Sau(Ratu Levu/Lewanavanua l). Who was the eldest son of Tui Waicalanavanua no.1 of Davetalevu Moturiki. They moved those big Moai statues by levitation powers nd skills on dryland and sailed them as well on their big double hulled canoes. Why the names Waqavatu nd Vatuwaqa still existed in Fiji to this day.

Excellent documentary. Enlightening!❤

The monsters that were created are stories of myth and legend of the past

Assuming or theorizing how 20, 30,50 up to 150 ton statues were transported doesn’t answer the question any better then the natives story of the statues walking over by themselves. Supernatural powers being possessed by the islanders ancestors is more probable than a sketch explaining how it might work since at least the islanders were natives . I’ve seen experiments when they tried to move just a couple of ton rock using boards underneath and grease to offset the friction. What’s even more mysterious than how they moved these statues is why would a primitive culture undertake such an impossible feat living such a simple existence. Most seaside cultures around the world have evolved as everyday fishermen to feed their families. Don’t assume the answer is as easy as accepting the best theories without putting the theory to practice.

All I can think of when I hear Easter Island is that the toes of these guys form Stonehenge.

A lot of things have changed on Earth since those statues were built 15,000 years ago.

I've always been of the opinion that the way that the statues came to be situated below ground level was because the soil itself on the island might be a lot softer than most other Islands, that one would think of.

By the rest of the story, I doubt if any of those shots were accidentally fired.

You have some bad science there . Polynesian rats (Rattus exulans) stowed away on those canoes, Hunt and Lipo say, and once they landed, with no enemies and lots of palm roots to eat, they went on a binge, eating and destroying tree after tree, and multiplying at a furious rate.

Crane hiding somewhere 🕵🏻‍♂️😂

When it was built the ocean was lower, there was a continent there which we only recently rediscovered.

They didn't come to it. They were already there. The planet was inundated by a flood that buried the icons. The water has now abated a bit, but this island was once much larger. The people knew the catastrophe was coming, and built the icons to show that they had the foresight. How else do you communicate across time to different cultures?

*sponsored by Big archeology*

Notice the lack of trees that they would have used as wooden rollers archaeologists say the natives cut down all the trees but a more logical answer would be this was a very tall mountain top and it was so high up no trees grew at that elevation

North America was not *discovered* by some unwanted visitors, that phrase needs to change. Just because I happen to come upon a strawberry bush at my grandparents house does not mean I *discovered* strawberries 😊 and now they only exist, as they once didn’t, before I came along.

Some maybe cutting down forest and using the ash to supplement the soil for minerals cause mud slides or mud flood that cover half the statues. They likely didn't make coal to mix in the soil to help buffer the soil for moister and minerals. We face similar problems today with use of Glyphosate; it depletes minerals in the soil and in the produce. Evidence of mud floods are common around the world where often the first story of building are buried underground.

A small factoid. There is no basalt on the island. So where did the basalt come from for 150 statues made of it?

Are we sure that numerous volcanic eruptions didn't cause the trees to burn? Or maybe even a forest fire. You say that there's charcoal everywhere. That doesn't make sense as far as making fires. Especially whespecially when there couldn't have been that many people living there at the time. I'm thinking that we need to search further to find out if there were ancient volcanic eruptions. Or at least possibly. A forest fire, it's not that big.

I thought the island sits on a volcano. If a major volcano erupted and burned down all the trees, that would explain a lot😊

Wish I had the abs these blokes got in the thumb pic

They knocked over the statues? Definitely wasn't a tsunami that knocked them over and buried them and destroyed their way of life.
