Summary Easter Island is one of the most remote places in the world, and with its huge, mysterious statues, it has puzzled archaeologists for centuries. How were the statues made and moved in a pre mechanized age, by whom and why? Thor Heyerdahl made the first scientific excavation of the statues in 1955 and in Easter Island he outlines his discoveries, as well as what still remains a mystery.
