Moai, Easter Island

Monolithic human figures carved by the Rapa Nui people from rock between the years 1250 and 1500. Almost all Moai have overly large heads three-eighths the size of the whole statue. The tallest Moai weigh 75 tonnes, but the Rapa Nui people were able to move these statues around the island. It’s still unclear how, but these statues are now among the most famous statues in the world.
