Watch Archaeologists Walk an Easter Island Statue across the Ground
How did the technologically limited native people of Rapa Nui move
the huge stone statues for which the island is famous? Archaeologists
Terry Hunt and Carl Lipo have an idea: the ancients may have rocked the
statues back and forth with teams of people yanking on sturdy ropes.
