I found an interesting read a while back detailing an
extraordinary find on Easter Island. Obviously the island itself
is extraordinary,with gigantic rock figures popping their heads
up through the ground for a breath of fresh air. But whats even
more interesting is that archaeologists have been excavating the
dirt around the remaining heads that are still upright. What
they have found below the surface were the bodies belonging to
the heads that go some seven meters into the ground.Some of
these bodies contain ancient petroglyph writing on the backs.
This shows that even though something may have been discovered,
sometimes you just need to dig a little deeper to discover it in
its entirety. The statues called Moai, 887 of them, were not
particularly built to symbolize gods or spirits per-say , but
people who most important in their lives were the recipients of
the dedication of these people. People they were very close to.
So you could say that one was very loved if their statue was one
weighing in and aroun
