Watch Archaeologists Walk an Easter Island Statue across the Ground


(Video Link)


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. Watch them walk this 5-ton replica statue forward.

Por lo visto en esa isla no hay cuestas ¿como los subieron o bajaron por las cuestas? por lo visto utilizaron la misma técnica que los de Stonehenge.
