Valuable Archaeological Findings That Have Shaped History Over Milennia

Easter Island, or Rapa Nui, in the South Pacific, is home to 900 mesmerizing moai. These monumental ‘head’ statues, created between the 11th and 17th centuries A.D., are original icons famously replicated in various forms of pop culture.

These statues vary in size, ranging from six to thirty feet, with an unfinished moai standing at sixty-five feet tall. Symbolizing the islanders’ deified ancestors, the moai offered both protection and fortune, embodying invaluable cultural and spiritual significance.
