Ancient artists moved more than 1,000 big stone statues across Easter Island with no machines to help them. The largest statue weighed about 200 tons.
These statues were built hundreds of years ago by the Rapa Nui people on Easter Island, in the South Pacific Ocean. Once they were finished, the stones had to be moved as far as 11 miles from their quarry (采石场) into place. Ancient people had no metal tools or wheels to get the work done. Their method remains a mystery.
Some scientists found that 18 persons with three strong ropes could move the statue. In this way pulling one statue at a time, they could have “walked” the statues on their large, rounded bases. But scientists can’t be sure this is the method, because the islanders didn’t write down their skill. But it’s the most likely answer. The old legend says “The statues walked into place”. Maybe that was the truth!
