Stone statue, (not plastic resin), 8 inches (20 cm), 2.75 inches width (7 cm), wearing traditional Pukao (initiation hat) & authentic back carvings.
The mysterious Moai statues of Easter Island have baffled seafarers for centuries, raising questions about giants and lost civilizations. Looming from the barren landscape like ancient sentinels, three hundred of them once created an unbroken line around the edge of the island. Another six hundred in various stages of completion are scattered around, nearly all carved from the black volcanic basalt of Rano Raraku volcano.
Ranging from about 14 feet (4.5 meters) to as tall as 30 feet and weighing more than 80 tons, the majority were carved between 1000 and 1650 AD. They were also back-carved with clan initiation symbols, although weather has eroded much of these features.
