the earliest inhabitants of the island known as the te Henua, which means The earliest Europeans to the island boarded the Dutch, who named the island American-based; almost all live in a barrier on the west coast of the Anga Roa (Hanga Roa) villages. Population 3,304 (2002). Location: Located in the southeast Pacific Ocean, 27 ° 07'41 .51 '12 .08 Panu Yi languages Religion: Christianity Time Zone: West Region VI (14 hours later than China, Chile later than 2 hours) Capital: Hang Jialuo A (Hanga Roa) Causes: Easter Island is about a million years ago by three undersea volcanic eruption. historical changes are about 2,000 residents on the island, are of Polynesian species, not yet reached the island in the West before, this is still in the Stone Age human beings, their only language, there is no text. because of the island are rocks, not long crops, only to plant some easy growth of sweet potato. islanders rely on the original fishing, species of a few sweet potatoes for a living, now mostly engaged in tourism services.'s indigenous Polynesian island , said the island is Many huge stone statue erected there, Davis was very surprised, and he put the island as Panu Yi people as slaves. At first, just occasionally, in 1862, Peru by eight vessels from pirates, who captured a thousand 多名拉帕努伊 men was almost wiped out the Rapa Nui people, who were transported to Peru, sold to the local master. in the international condemnation, the Peruvian government had ordered these slave traders back into the Rapa Nui people, Rapa Nui, but these only 100 people have died around the , Easter Island in the back way, but also infected with smallpox, have died during the journey, only 15 returned home. these 15 people to smallpox to the Easter Island. legendary figure of the founding chief Huo Tuma A (Hotu Matu'a) died last group of descendants, all the chiefs, the priests are dead. on the island only a few hundred residents. The second set foot on Easter Island, the French missionary, easy to Rapa Nui in the disaster, people are transformed into a Christian, but also completely destroy the island's culture. They ordered the burning of all the engraved wooden Langgelangge. Now the surviving 25 panels Langgelangge is the possession of the Rapa Nui people secretly down. in the 19th century, the age of 70 have survived the Rapa Nui people moved to Tahiti, to 1877, the island population of only 111 people. Easter is the day in 1888 , the Chilean government announced the annexation of Easter Island, the island most of the land leased to shepherd the company, until 1953, sheep on the island even more barren land. Today the island population had increased to 2 thousand people, but only 5% Rapa Nui language speaking school-age children. In Easter Island the first European to visit the Dutch merchant captain UCLA paper (Jacob Roggeneen), he stayed on the island in 1722 a day. he and his crew found the island Some residents, according to them, these residents have a variety of size, they prostrate the rising sun, the use of fire to worship a huge stone.

. geographic traffic on Easter Island in the southeast Pacific Ocean, in 27 degrees south latitude and 109 ° W near the intersection area of about 117 square kilometers, now part of the Republic of Chile, Valparaiso area. it is from Chile, South America about 3,000 kilometers away from the other Pacific islands are very far away, so it is an isolated Pacific Ocean southeast of the island. Easter Island is the world's most isolated islands, from its recently been settled Pitcairn Islands, are 2,075 km away. The island was a shape similar to the triangle formed by three volcanoes. topography of this hilly island is not part of settlement land mass, but by the rising number of undersea volcanic typical The high ocean island.
mainly tuff (volcanic debris from the solid formation of a porous rock) and the lava flows of three extinct volcanoes that form the island was unique triangle. within the spread some parasitic and volcanic tuff cone crater (crater that is blocked at the earliest, after or near the side of the volcano crater formation and volcanic cone), there are many other areas of lava erosion area, the region around the black Yao rock. no stone surface soil barren; suitable for large-scale farming areas are mainly located in the southwest of the Anga Roa and Mata Wei Lane (Mataveri) region, Ba Yiwu (Vaihu), Capistrano Lala library (Rano Raraku) volcanic island, eastern plains and the southwest corner of the prehistoric has cultivated Powick (Poike) peninsula. rely on La Nuke (Rano Kao), Capistrano Lala library and 拉努阿罗伊 (Rano Aroi ) and other parts of the volcanic crater lakes covered by the swamp water savings. 拉努阿罗伊 Crater Lake by the intermittent supply of a river flow down the hillside from the Terre waka, to water seepage into the soil. about 914 meters (3,000) wide La Nuke deep volcanic crater lake water to water to Anga Roa. coast from the soft, gray cliffs formed by erosion, steep drop of about 152 ~ 305 vertical meters ( 500 ~ 1,000); some of the low long hard and sometimes bumpy structure of truncated lava cliffs. the lack of natural harbors, but in the West Bank Anga Ah, the south bank of the Wei Napu (Vinapu) and Aotuyidi ( Hotu-Iti), Ana McKenna (Anakena) near the sea, and the north shore of the la Cruz Bay (Bahia la Perouse) has an anchorage, there are some small islands off the coast of the main island are Motunuyi (Motu-Nui) Island, Motuyidi (Motu-Iti) southwest of Cape nearby atolls and quiz Motu (Motu-Kaokao, local birds, the image of God). The only real beach in Ana Faulkner, Most other beaches are sand and gravel. There are many caves. hydrology and climate tropical climate, no surface streams, the crater lake as a drinking water source, Rano Kao crater lake 1.6 km in diameter. humid climate, the annual average temperature of 22 ℃, rain throughout the year, annual precipitation 1300 mm. rainfall is the biggest month of May, rainfall reached 1590 mm. rain does not change people's way of life on the island, but the fishing and agriculture are affected by the moon and wind. subtropical climate type, that is sunny and dry. 1 to 3 months the hottest, with an average temperature of 23 ℃ (73); 6 ~ 8 月 most cool, average temperature 18 ℃ (64). annual average rainfall of 1,250 male (49 ) or so, but the big changes every year. September the dry, up to 6,7 months of rainfall, and the Southern winter front passed through the same time. June and August blowing wind, no law, other times mostly from the eastern and southeast trade winds. from September to March next year in Peru Current (also known as Humboldt ocean current) flows through the island, with an average temperature of about 21 ℃ (70). geological features more than a dozen fire towers on the island hills, the highest point 601 m above sea level. the ground is rugged and deep coverage of tuff. Most of the island's topography is smooth hills, grasslands, and volcanic. the island more than a rock on the beach, the cliffs are everywhere, no one guards the Gulf. island only three beaches, the sand is very clean. northeastern higher than the face of Polynesian island group. southwestern flat landscape, and the west coast of Chile, 3700 km away, distant relative. triangles on each corner of each of a volcano. left corner Llano test is volcanic. the right is 拉诺拉拉科 volcanic slopes of the volcano on the largest island of the giant stone statue base. Aru northern corner is the Llano volcanic mountain adjacent to it with Trey waka . Easter Island is a prairie plant resources, there is no higher than 3 meters of trees. vegetation to shrubs, grass-based. botanists on the island found only 47 species of native higher plants, mostly herbs, ferns Only four small shrubs. the local flora and fauna is very poor. on pollen analysis of sediments that occurs when the local fire before cultivated home, the island of trees and shrubs, including the large Chilean palm trees (Jubaea spectabilis) . At present, only 31 species of wild flowering trees, 14 species of ferns and 14 mosses. barren land of long grass and small ferns, which were covered with two kinds of Crater Lake marshes of the United States imports Plant densely covered Totora Lu Cong (an important building material), and a pointed Polygonum genus Polygonum acuminatum, it is a medicinal plant. before the Europeans arrived, but also introduced a number of cultivated plants, some from the Americas, partly from French Polynesia; The main varieties of sweet potato, widely grown in plantations, the main food for the residents. earliest gourd varieties imported, sugar cane, bananas, taro, yam and two Asia's useful trees, paper mulberry bark can be used for making cloth; U.S. Triumfetta semitriloba, bark rope. wild animal resources, in addition to mice and a small alien lizards may be local, no one species larger than insects. It is not even local bats and terrestrial birds. As for domestic animals, only chicken. island isolated environment so that animals have many limitations, only vertebrate fish or sea with a long flight capacity birds. in addition to spiders, insects, earthworms, snails, centipedes and so on. 1866 missionaries introduced sheep, horses, cattle, pigs and other livestock. caveman cave in the wilderness is not clear how a large number of incoming cats. in a human before , the only vertebrates are fish or long-distance flying birds. land animals are only a few species of isopods (Crustacea in one eye), spiders, insects, earthworms, snails, and a hundred feet insects. Modern appeared a large number of flies, cockroaches and a small scorpion large. local edible Polynesian rat was later replaced by larger European mice. the island in 1864 to shelter the missionaries introduced sheep, horses, cattle and pigs. 1870 ranchers began operating foreign commercial breeding farm after about 100 years in the period, particularly sheep. In the mid-1980s, sheep farming over, but cattle-breeding industry prosperity. since 1880 wild animals were added to Chile quail chickens, quail, and a Kitty Hawk. sea turtles and seals are now rare animals around the coast lobster and a variety of coastal and deep-sea fish. residents of the island residents are from the Marquesa Sri Lanka (Marguesas), a Polynesian ethnic group most east Asian immigrant groups. the original Arab Nui vocabulary has been lost,

In recent years more and more people of foreign origin into. scientific research in this solitary island on the southeast Pacific, and now the world has caused many people to its interest and concern. from the discovery of the island, the many problems that people have become discussion, concern, but is inextricably mystery, scientists study it for a long time, had no explanation of a scientific consensus. many of the world Easter Island is known as It's a lot of questions, but also by the world as , arranged on the shore of the island. Every stone in different shape and size are different. At the time, Luo Gewen see all of their own was very surprised. then in 1770, the Spanish navigator Gonzalez to the island , 1774, the British sailing again measured Cook arrived here at home, they see everything on the island are surprised. archeology of Easter Island is famous for its huge stone statues, the island over about 600 stone statues, and stone platform (ahu, rubble) sites, the Korean land
volcanic rock carvings on Easter Island to work
to the direction of open-air courtyard, some clever construction yard. 1886,1914 and 1934 archaeological survey was conducted; archaeological excavations began in 1955. concluded that the existence of three distinct island culture period. early days in the Ta Hai (Tahai), Wei Napu and Anatoly Faulkner boulder station, about the carbon dating method AD 700 to 800 years. Cork Colonel appreciation of the first two stone sets, and describe; Ana Faulkner stone walls unearthed in 1987, before, has been buried in the ground. from the excavations Anatoly Faulkner found a variety of carved stone like in the early, including a small prototype of the mid-term bust, and bust the main difference between mid-round and sturdy body. Another type of realism is a statue, kneeling in the general performance Portrait, sitting in the heel on the buttocks, hands in her lap, there is a statue of a bare ribs, with the South American Tiwanaku (Tiwanaku) of the former Inca monuments of the various features of the period. In the medium term (1050? ~ 1680), intends to destroy and discard the stone statues, stone table full reconstruction of all, do not take into account the sun position, also did not consider the size of stone structures. It seems the only hope is to have a solid stone, you can support the higher and larger bust that the mid-typical big red cylindrical tuff produced 10 m (32) high, by the weight of about 74,500 kg (82 tons) of a stone carved, the top of the deep in the mud below, about 11 meters (37) high. not completed the largest stone statue of about 21 meters (68) high,
shape ups skechers, back against the rock. by some of the traditional archaeological confirmed that these stone statues be regarded as representative of God after the death of some important figures. Interim Capistrano Lara statue are made in the specific library crater wall is made of yellow gray tuff. In areas outside the crater bowl, spread with unfinished Thousands of rough stone and stone-ho, demonstrating carving abruptly. In 1955 to 1956 on the island tradition as a basis for experiments that left many in the rock field to do with the basalt stone ho can tuff hard for carving. once again, experiment shows that 12 islanders be able to about 3 meters (10) high weight of 25 tons of a stone statue moved out of the ground,
shape up shoes, so that tilt vertically, put the stone platform In addition to the two wooden rods used outside the case without any tools, the job will take 18 days time. big and small stones were wedged stone statues one by one, the formation of a slowly rising conical pile of stones, erected in order to make this monster. Traditionally known as the stone like a on the move. In 1986, an experiment again with a group of 15 people found the rope and pull it forward, you can put a medium-size stone statue erected on the ground to move. Interim clear from the local stone bust of a prototype, other places The stone is not alike. There is a special mid-term phenomenon, that is, the birds fowler followers of God worship ritual ceremony, a phenomenon that continued into the third period, that is late. The ritual center is La Nuke mountain Aolong Ge (Orongo) village, the village is stone, the roof arches seem to leave. These are connected to the roof stone and the entrance is a circular brick characteristics of early and mid-island; While other parts of Polynesia not have this housing, but adjacent areas in South America but is common. Related mystery mystery island, Easter Island stone statue is famous for its world. over the island about 1000 the great stone statues and large fortress ruins. 1914 and 1934 conducted a survey study in 1955 in the excavations, concluded that there are three cultures of the island. early huge stone wall, can be used to observe the sunrise of the year. all kinds of stone like a small black basalt with , tuff and volcanic slag aggregates, measured by carbon isotope time around 1680 BC. mid-to long-ears stone platform, no legs, like a stone bust of the features. stone high 3 ─ 6 meters. the highest one of 9 .8 meters and weighing about 82 tons. 6-meter-high statue. Easter Island statue over nearly a thousand giant stone carvings, some of which
giant Easter Island head statue hat
Woyu mountain slopes, or lying on the beach. erected in respect of which there are dozens of artificial sea platform, a single or in groups, facing the sea, head hyperopia. These legless statue form a lively half-length, high nose, deep orbital,
skechers shape ups, long ears, Alice mouth, his hands on the stomach. 5-10 meters tall statue, dozens of tons of weight, the highest one, 22 meters and weighing 300 tons. some also with a red stone head stone cap weighing 10 tons. these are local people called What people carved it? What does it stand? people is how they are transported hundreds of kilometers from the quarry, the beach it? Some people say it is an alien masterpiece. Easter Island stone to crack the mystery of giant hat Easter Island stone statue of a giant hat on his head so that archaeologists have been puzzling mystery. Now, a British archaeologist team finally opened the riddle. They believed that the stone carved from a stone cap had not been of quarries, so a hat is a stone of power. researchers believe, the first stone hat appeared in the 1200 to 1300. [2] produced the legend of a statue of stone are saying is that these islands Master sculpture, they are the island's indigenous people worship different gods or the dead chief, was deified ancestors of the islanders, who agree with this more. But some experts believe that the statue of the high nose, thin lips, it is typical of students relative to whites, while the islanders are Polynesians, their looks do not have this feature. ear length, which people like. Sculpture is an art, always contains the nation characteristics, and these stone shape, no Polynesian characteristics. then they would not be the ancestors of Polynesian islanders now, it is impossible for these statues is that they made. In addition, people from another careful analysis of the angle, the island is very difficult when the original stone tools used to accomplish such a large sculpture project. It was measured before, in the year 2000, the island can provide food, can only support 2000 people, productivity is very low in the Stone Age, they must diligently seek out food every day, can barely feed themselves, they have time to do these carvings? Moreover, this stone as a high art, experts on these stone carving is not a people on the island, but more civilized than that alien on the planet to produce. They asked for some purpose and to select the Pacific islands, built the stone. This claim was even more bizarre. as carving the stone, the island had dropped a number of stone tools with a blunt, who believe that people are more civilized than that alien planet, will use the original statue of stone tools to complete these works it. on the hill a few hundred an unfinished stone, why not put them carving is completed, give up, where experts said the analysis, which may be encountered in the carving of hard rock, can not continue to go on and give up carving. because it was using stone tools carved stone, in the manufacture of stone tools, selection of the most hard rock as much as possible, but may in the carving, also face hard rock, carving does not move, had to give up. Therefore, these are not carved in stone finish not encounter any catastrophic events suddenly stopped, but in the process of gradually carved abandoned. One of the largest stone, more than 20 meters high, is the Easter Island stone statue of the largest seen as unfinished , is still lying on the mountain rock. But scientists do not fully agree with this rock views. They explained that the stone carvings of people may spend a great deal of labor and time and erection of the stone carved up, but toppled by the earthquake, and then put up the new sculpture, and has been toppled. carvings of people think it is God or God's punishment, let them stay here longer, so they stopped. Now, the mystery already have a preliminary answer. archaeologist according to the language of Easter Island on the characteristics of the residents that the Easter Island people originally from a Polynesian migration from the islands. and from the Polynesian Where it? It has been that from South America. Now, more scientists believe that Polynesians from Southeast Asia. ancient Asians starting from Southeast Asia, after a long period of time, via Irian Island, Solomon Islands, New Caledonia, Fiji Islands and other islands, the last four or five centuries AD, arrived at about Easter Island. Polynesians reached Easter Island, the customs will also be taken to Easter Island stone carving on stone carving and a variety of reasons the wind intensified. According to scientists to research, the stone statues on Easter Island is not the representative of God, but on behalf of the late great chief or religious leader. In the eyes of the ancient Polynesians, these who has a very powerful god, to bless their children. According to carving remains left at the scene of transport, the scientists believe that the ancient Polynesian statues so transportation: the road was covered in a good chisel and reed thatch , and then use pry bar, rope to the stone moved supine years. In 1960, American archaeologist who led the Islanders Muro this approach, successful in seven of 16 tons of heavy stone erected. Scientists also believe that in about 1650, two on Easter Island Large Group - Fierce fighting fat and lean people. forced to work in stone carving Thin uprising, using circuitous tactics, surprise attack fat people, fat people will be wiped. Thus, the work will stop over in stone carving down. Of course, the mystery of Easter Island stone statue can not be said to be completely, completely opened, scientists are still many issues to be studied further. In short, the Easter Island stone portraits, many of these claims. Until today, so we have not come to a convincing, scientific and satisfactory explanation. research Islanders living in the resurrection of late with the boat was built in pole and thatch houses or caves. This period was characterized by civil war large destruction and cultural decadence. mass production of the Method of Writing (text from right to left, and then make the trip from left to right each wrong) sign the wooden slips (called a; they have forgotten the correct pronunciation, although there are several claims, but modern attempts to decipher, without success. During this period, art treasures hidden in a secret cave in the family, the erection of the stone sculptures was knocked down. abandoned quarry in the standing in the mud drops to the foot of the volcano without eyes unfinished bust of the chest, not down them, so as to leave to future generations of these non-eye stone head, to make the island world famous . legend, in two different national cultures and languages, after a period of peaceful coexistence, and began sabotage, short ears ethnic group for the long-eared hard work, their northeast coast Powick (Poike) a large ancient drainage pile of firewood, almost wiped out all of the long-eared family. carbon dating and genealogy researchers have claimed that the late start of the event and about 1680. According to carbon dating, man-made drainage Powick, built around 380 AD The. Easter Island in 1984, held the first international science conference unanimously adopted a resolution before the island as the location of European culture. recent excavations indicate that the earliest immigrants came to the island in the concept of existing building , and mastery of a special masonry skills, which confirmed the legend of the island's traditional ancestors came to the island when the first organized immigration, not just accidentally by the wind to the fishermen. 1995 Resurrection Island by UNESCO (UNESCO) as World Heritage Site. These navigators and soon spread throughout Europe and Easter Island and the world saw and heard, so to attract a number of experts and scholars come to this Investigation of the island. The experts came to the island on a detailed observation of stone. They found that the triangular shape of Easter Island, 24 km long, maximum width 17.7 kilometers, an area of 117 square kilometers. many extinct volcano on the island, there are 3 high volcanic island ranked the top three corners, steep coastal cliffs, climbing extremely difficult. statues on Easter Island around 440, not including the rocks in the mountain has been carved, but not yet completed hundreds of stripping down. statue height is generally at 5-6 m and 3-4 meters, the tallest a high 2l.8 meters. about 30 to the head of a statue wearing a cap stone, stone statue of the body cap and not the whole, is also put to good sculpture, and painted on some red stone cap. are not carved stone statue of the lower body in the foot. carved stone shape varies a good , but they are very long ears, big nose, thin lips. who also carved stone design patterns, carved stone statue erected in a good 60 meters long, 3 meter high platform. Here there were 11.4 platform, are also used The large stone blocks. carving stone material used, is the local volcanic rock. The weight of each stone, generally more than 10 tons, the smallest estimates are more than 5 tons. There is also a phenomenon that now see the stone, In addition to the vertical part of the throngs, there are hundreds of statues has not yet completed, is still on the island of rock, a sudden event like what happened, so work in progress, suddenly stopped. The experts visited the Islanders here . Island Polynesians do not understand the origins of the statue,
shape up skechers, whose ancestors did not tell the future generations who carved the stone. because there is no text, no historical records. But they said the statue called hat called when accompanied by a Tahitian who can talk with the residents on the island. However, despite the high degree of seamanship Polynesian known, can not fail to impress even the Western colonizers, UCLA paper found only three of the Easter Island , four simple canoe, only 3 meters long, up by two people, with a small wood tied together with a simple, leakage is very powerful, need to draw side of the bucket while the boat in the water. This can only be a small canoe on the shore road impossible to go deep. However, that is, this poor and backward land, but the birth of a large number of locals called Moai (moai) of the huge stone. has been found that the Moai are 887, most of carved in a quarry, of which 288 have been carved after the expiry of successfully transported to the called ahu (ahu) stand in the altar above the seaside, transport distances, some up to 10 km. There has not been carving 397 After throwing in the quarry, the remaining 92 were abandoned in transit. most of them are relatively soft and easily carved with tuff (solidified volcanic ash formation) sculpture, a small part of the volcanic rocks carved with the other. Moai average height of about 4 m, the average weight of about 12.5 tons.'s largest one 21.6 meters high and weighs 160-182 tons, but not completed and abandoned in the quarry. completed the largest Moai 9.8 meters high and weighs about 74 tons. no two
