One of South America‘s mysteries is Easter Island. Easter Island, also called Rapa Nui
and Isla de Pascua, 3,600 km (2,237 mi) west of Chile, is a volcanic island with an
interesting and partly unknown history. The island was named by the Dutch explorer
Jacob Roggeveen because he encountered it on Easter Sunday 1722. He was the first
European to find the island. The official name of the island, Isla de Pascua, means
Easter Island in Spanish. This island is famous because of the approximately 887 huge
statues which were found there. The statues consist of heads and complete torsos,
the largest of which weighs 84 tons! These monuments, called moai, were carved
out of compressed volcanic ash, called tuff, which was found at a quarry at a place
called Rano Raraku. Statues are still being found. Some of the monuments were left
only half-carved. Nobody knows why Rano Raraku was abandoned. It is thought that
