Background, Rationale and Goals

Some 35% of the known statues are located on or in direct relation to ceremonial sites called image ahu (Martinsson – Wallin [...]]]></description>

(left) This statue illustrates the ceremonial use of a fallen moai into historic time. The site was excavated by W. Mulloy and reported in the published papers of the Norwegian Archaeological Expedition. Although there were some anomalies in the descriptions of the statues, Mulloy&#8217;s team also produced a conjectural reconstruction view of the statues standing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[EISP is the longest collaborative and evolving artifact inventory ever conducted within the context of the Easter Island archaeological survey. Our primary goals are scientific. Our basic purpose is to shed light on the complexities of prehistory, and to integrate the moai into the unfolding time line of Rapa Nui prehistory. We aim to locate, describe, and understand the original context and use of all statues, including those in museums. Context and use, it is hoped, will reveal meaning.]]></description>

In 2006-2007, EISP resurveyed the statues along the &#8220;transport roads&#8221; and updated the visual documentation record for each statue. This new data was used to create a more accurate map that shows unique statue details.

It weighs approximately 82 m tons and wore a red scoria pukao (30-220-004) that added another 11-12 m tons of weight to the statue. Previously investigated by C. Smith and W.
