The Mystery Of Easter Island One may wonder about the mystery of Easter Island, is it a myth just like mermaids and aliens. Well, the mystery of how the statues got there has been proven in so many ways. Although, the most efficient way is by walking the statues. First and foremost, the Rapanui people never had enough people to move the statues by rolling them. As the text says,”...
