Easter Island Moai: The Monumental Magnificence of this Legendary Phenomenon | Phenomana E8S7

Statues carved from volcanic tuff (a porous solidified ash) stand tall, even thousands of year later, to guard the island of Rapa Nui, also known as Easter Island. The Rapa Nui Moai ( #easterisland #moai ) are prodigious monuments to high chiefs, known as Ariki, embued with mana to stand guard over the island. As well as something boardering on the #supernatural perhaps? This week we dive into the #theories behind why the Moai were constructed, and debunk some theories that write off the hard work, resilience and culture of the #rapanui people.
