Easter Island

Aug 7, 2009 - 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?

Aug 23, 2009 - 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.

Sep 3, 2009 - DUH! 100% agree w/u the simplest explanation is often the correct one.

Sep 4, 2009 - 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.

coonass3124 Says:

Sep 4, 2009 - 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!

pookoos Says:

Sep 7, 2009 - Yes. I was thinking that very thing too. Why would they need to be finished statues? I think that sounds plausible.

Ancientpeople Says:

Sep 11, 2009 - 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.

Ancientpeople Says:

Sep 11, 2009 - How did they get so much hard wood? Easter island has no hard wood

dreicemoney Says:

Oct 1, 2009 - they probably used cylinder shaped trees they used to move them back when the island had trees

isanification Says:

Oct 7, 2009 - 80 tons?, the method show is useless.

Oct 19, 2009 - Mana:D

dawnblueclover Says:

Oct 23, 2009 - 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

dawnblueclover Says:

Oct 23, 2009 - or even...they would be able to move the statue 180 more easily on a a-frame using the point as the pivot? .....

joshgura Says:

Oct 28, 2009 - 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.

Keishiron123456789 Says:

Oct 29, 2009 - or or! there just gaint rocks there and just carve it

1MartinD28 Says:

Dec 31, 2009 - the composition of the statue materiel is actually feces

Timmeh705 Says:

Jan 15, 2010 - instead of playing with rocks, why dont they replace all the trees we cut down.

IAMSTILLTATTOOING Says:

Feb 6, 2010 - how do they mix cathalosism w moiri tradition

nephozo Says:

Feb 28, 2010 - they had to use crane.that leaves some important questions maby the most important ones.

Toymit Says:

Mar 7, 2010 - Yep thats it.Because there are many "carved" statues (Moai) still at the quarry getting evidence to the statues being carved at the quarry first then transported to the resting sites.

willsad83 Says:

Mar 13, 2010 - i think aliens crash landed on the island then helpd the natives build the statues to ward off attackers until they fixed ther ship then as a reward took them to ther home planet
