There are also 13 moai carved from basalt, 22 from trachyte and 17 from fragile red scoria. These massive creations usually weigh around 12.5 tonnes (13.8 tons) each.Īll but 53 of the more than 900 moai known to date were carved from tuff (a compressed volcanic ash) from Rano Raraku, where 394 moai in varying states of completion are still visible today. The average height of the moai is about 4 m (13 ft), with the average width at the base around 1.6 m (5.2 ft). Some of the 'heads' at Rano Raraku have been excavated and their bodies seen, and observed to have markings that had been protected from erosion by their burial. This is partly because of the disproportionate size of most moai heads, and partly because many of the iconic images for the island showing upright moai are the statues on the slopes of Rano Raraku, many of which are buried to their shoulders. Though moai are whole-body statues, they are often referred to as 'Easter Island heads' in some popular literature. Except for one kneeling moai, the statues do not have clearly visible legs. Generally, the anatomical features of the backs are not detailed, but sometimes bear a ring and girdle motif on the buttocks and lower back. The arms are carved in bas relief and rest against the body in various positions, hands and long slender fingers resting along the crests of the hips, meeting at the hami (loincloth), with the thumbs sometimes pointing towards the navel. The torsos are heavy, and, sometimes, the clavicles are subtly outlined in stone. The jaw lines stand out against the truncated neck. Like the nose, the ears are elongated and oblong in form. The over-large heads (a three-to-five ratio between the head and the trunk, a sculptural trait consistent with the Polynesian belief in the sanctity of the chiefly head) have heavy brows and elongated noses with a distinctive fish-hook-shaped curl of the nostrils. The human figures would be outlined in the rock wall first, then chipped away until only the image was left. The moai are monolithic statues, and their minimalist style reflects forms found throughout Polynesia. One unfinished sculpture, if completed, would have been approximately 21 m (69 ft) tall, with a weight of about 145–165 tons. The heaviest moai erected was a shorter but squatter moai at Ahu Tongariki, weighing 86 tonnes (84.6 tons). The tallest moai erected, called Paro, was almost 10 metres (33 ft) high and weighed 82 tonnes (80.7 tons). The production and transportation of the more than 900 statues is considered a remarkable creative and physical feat. The moai were toppled in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, possibly as a result of European contact or internecine tribal wars. The statues still gazed inland across their clan lands when Europeans first visited the island in 1722, but all of them had fallen by the latter part of the 19th century. The moai are chiefly the living faces ( aringa ora) of deified ancestors ( aringa ora ata tepuna). Almost all moai have overly large heads, which comprise three-eighths the size of the whole statue. Nearly half are still at Rano Raraku, the main moai quarry, but hundreds were transported from there and set on stone platforms called ahu around the island's perimeter. aɪ/ ( listen) MOH-eye Spanish: moái Rapa Nui: moʻai, lit.'statue') are monolithic human figures carved by the Rapa Nui people on Easter Island in eastern Polynesia between the years 12.
