Easter Island 'Moai' stone statue begins long journey home
A huge "Moai" statue, one of the iconic stone monuments from Easter Island, began its journey back home on Monday following a years-long campaign to get it returned to its original setting since it was housed in a museum in Santiago in the 19th century.

The Moai were created by the Rapa Nui people from the 13th to 16th centuries on Easter Island. They ingeniously moved these massive statues by rocking them with ropes, allowing them to “walk” to their destinations. This method highlights their advanced understanding of physics, managing to transport these figures for ceremonial purposes without any modern machinery. | Historyinmemes

They were never just heads… 👁️ Beneath the surface of Easter Island, archaeologists discovered that most of the Moai statues actually have entire bodies buried deep underground — complete with carvings and inscriptions. For centuries, people wondered how these massive figures were moved and placed across the island… now new findings suggest an advanced understanding of balance, leverage, and perhaps something even deeper. Were they simply monuments — or markers left behind by a civilization wit

The Moai of Easter Island are incredible. There are more than 800 of them. The largest weighs 88 tons and is several meters tall. Many of them have bodies that are buried in 10-20 feet of sediment. Are they really only a few hundred years old? How do you accumulate 15 feet of dirt in only 500 years on an island with almost no vegetation? The mystery continues. #EasterIsland #Moai #LostCivilization #Archeogeology #AncientExplorers www.ancientexplorers.com | Ancient Explorers
