or or! there just gaint rocks there and just carve it
-
omg, how on earth did the ancients bless the moving of a statue without the help of the vatican? this was a half baked documentary… even by microwave dinner standards.
-
or even…they would be able to move the statue 180 more easily on a a-frame using the point as the pivot? …..
-
What if they were actually carved upside down? and they didn’t have to rotate the statue? Or they waited until they got to the pedestals to rotate it? Just an idea
-
Mana:D
-
80 tons?, the method show is useless.
-
they probably used cylinder shaped trees they used to move them back when the island had trees
-
for more about the causes of downfall of this island read ‘Collapse’ -by Jared DIamond!!!

i like the easter island’s mystery..who made the statues?,how was it built?,when was it built?,why is it built?…
anyways i really like the view on the sunset by the sea i really like those kinds of pictures,it makes you feel peace and relaxed i dunno to you but thats my opinion
-
How did they get so much hard wood? Easter island has no hard wood
-
Well they found a half craved statue which is in the carving side so they think ancient people carve the statue 1st then move them.
-
Yes. I was thinking that very thing too. Why would they need to be finished statues? I think that sounds plausible.
-
I just spoke with a grey aliean and he told me that they built these things and placed them all over the island like scarecrows to scare away any humans who happened to land on the island by sea.Easter Island was a central meeting place where all alieans landed when visiting Earth.Dos’nt that make more sence than any thing else? EBE told me so!
-
Where are the remains of the so called people who lived there?(bones,tools,artifacts of dailey life) Why would a people with know how 2 build stone statues live in mud or straw huts and where are thier remains? Duh? I think the aliean theory is a more believable story.Maby they were just picked up in one hand by the giants who lived on earth from the beginnings as stated in the bible.Modern man will never know how and who built them,just like the great piramids and the spinx.
-
DUH! 100% agree w/u the simplest explanation is often the correct one.
-
I did spot one flaw in their technique, I doubt they had 20,000lb.+ tinsel strength rope to lash the logs together and pull the statue.
-
Wouldn’t a simply method be carving the pre-statues into roughly cylindrical shapes, rolling them on their sides to the site, raise the cylinder on its end, and finish carving?

So sad that our ancestors who were ( ahem ) primitives, seem to have been more knowledgeable and smarter than we are today with all our tech. Just seems to me how egos ALWAYS get in the way. The more schooling someone has, makes them so limited in perspective & understanding and less likely to accept that fact that they might not know anything.
-
It’s just funny, because someday someone is gonna figure out how all this monolithic work was done by early peoples, and it’s going to be so simple and easy and inspired that all these historians and their theories will look like idiots in comparison.
-
Amusing to see Catholics co-opting spiritual parts of the process… pretty sure they were not involved originally.
-
There is a great section in Jared Diamond’s book Collapse about the difficulty in raising the mouai. Deforestation occured earlier than would allow for many of these methods. Good read, though.

your wright that red headed chick was mean and wrong,and her idea had a lot of holes in it
-
Brilliant!
