    Thanks for this post, Mozart!

    Have you ever visited Rapa Nui(Easter Island is the name the colonist gave to the island). I spent 2.5 days there last June after spending 12.5 days in Peru. It was quite a charge to my energy field to spend 2.5 days there especially after spending time in some tourist locations.

    There is a very natural power present on the island that can be felt by those sensitive to it. There a magnetic anomalies present on the island.

    Here is a video that may help in further researching your question:

    Easter Island's Statues Reveal Bodies Covered With Unknown Ancient Petroglyphs - 21 January, 2014

    MessageToEagle.com - Standing some 2,000 miles west of Chile, on the Easter Island, 887 mysterious giant statues have intrigued scientists and the public for years.

    For a long time it was believed that the massive statutes consisted of just the heads.

    However, in October 2011, when the Easter Island Statue Project began its Season V expedition, scientists could reveal remarkable photos showing that the bodies of the statues go far deeper underground than just about anyone had imagined.

    Project director Jo Anne Van Tilburg said: "Our EISP excavations recently exposed the torsos of two 7m tall statues.

    "We found a round, deep post hole into which the Rapa Nui had inserted a tree trunk," she said. Van Tilburg said ropes were attached to the tree trunk and to the partially carved statue. "We found a rope guide that was actually carved into the bedrock near the statue." The Rapa Nui then used the tree trunk to raise the statue upright. Before the statue was upright, they carved its front. Once it stood erect, they finished the back, Van Tilburg explained.

    The excavation team also found about 800 grams of natural red pigment — nearly two pounds — in the burial hole, along with a human burial. Van Tilburg believes the pigment was used to paint the statues, just as the Rapa Nui used pigment to paint their bodies for certain ceremonies.

    The unusually large amount of pigment found indicates that it might have been used by a priest or chief, perhaps as part of mortuary practice, she said. Human bones were found throughout the dig, indicating that people buried their dead around the statues. (continues in the link posted bellow)

    IT’S a fascinating sight that has long baffled experts, but new research is finally shedding light on Easter Island’s most perplexing mystery.

    Famously, there are approximately 900 statues, or moai, located around the remote Pacific island, known to locals as Rapa Nui. Most are found around the coast, and were built sometime between the years 1200 and 1600.

    So why, and how, did they end up there?

    Researchers from New York’s Binghamton University are suggesting that the lost civilisation used the iconic statues to signal locations where fresh water was available.

    Carl Lipo, an anthropologist who has been looking into how the local Rapa Nui people were able to survive with such limited access to drinking water, led a team who conducted field studies of groundwater around the coast.

    He wondered how, with no springs or streams and very little rainfall, did the civilisation of approximately 15,000-20,000 people survive?

    According to the research, published in the Hydrogeology Journal, they were forced to rely on brackish groundwater — which is saltier than fresh water but not as salty as sea water — found in coastal areas, for their source of drinking water.

    “Two field surveys indicate abundant locations of brackish but potable water along the coastline,” the study states.

    “Although coastal groundwater sources are of poor quality, they were apparently sufficient to support the population and allow them to build the magnificent statues for which Easter Island is famous.”

    Hey guys I found some brackish water, can a couple of hundred of you help me carve a giant stone statue and help me drag it 3 miles to help me mark my water?..... it will be fun I guarantee it. I'm an expert by the way.

    Amazing what academia has come to with absurd explanations like this?!?!? NY Times had a story about academic journals publishing B.S. stories such as “Human Reactions to Rape Culture and Queer Performativity at Urban Dog Parks in Portland, Ore.,” which illustrates the fallen useless state of the university.

    The same institutions have ridiculed serious research into psi, alien abduction, the age of the Sphinx, while ignoring any serious study of the Kennedy Assasination or how the three World Trade Center towers came down.

    They cost taxpapers billions of dollars a year and have taken huge donations from the wealthy who had nothing but good intentions of advancing human knowledge and civilization, and yet the Harvards, Stanfords and hundreds of others do nothing but turn out huge heaps of intellectual dung.

    This report about Rapa Nui (a.k.a. Easter Island) is just another example of how a Hidden Hand is keeping humans down by polluting our institutions of knowledge.

    My question is how they figure that these statues were built between 1200 and 1600 AD? These things are huge, like 30 ft tall, and many are often half submerged, indicating they would likely have been there much longer.

    I doubt they do any 'figuring' outside of their box at all. Academics are taught within certain parameters - they are definitely not encouraged to think critically, much less actually work things out for themselves.
    And that's the way the establishment wants it.
    Pathetic, really.

    A recent fire on Easter Island has damaged some of the statues due to cracking.

    David Wynn Miller's story about the Easter Island statues: link

    globalnews
    Quote A fire has caused damage to Easter Island‘s megalithic statues, called moai, charring some of the iconic stone figures beyond repair.

    After the fire broke out on Monday, the flames raged through Rapa Nui national park, 3,500 km off the coast of Chile. More than 100 hectares of land in the Rano Raraku sector was reportedly affected by the fire, including where the moai statues reside.
    10/07/22 (2:00)

    Quote Wildfires over the past week has caused "irreparable" damage to Rapa Nui, Chile’s (Easter Island) megalithic and sacred Moai statues, charring some of the iconic stone heads beyond repair.

    “The damage is unquantifiable, unmeasurable. It is also unrecoverable because the fire warms the stone, and the stone cracks. Our scientists, along with the park’s administration, will have to go to the island to make the corresponding analysis and see how big the damage is and what we’ll have to do in the future. I do not know if there is a solution for this,” Rapa Nui Mayor Pedro Edmunds Paoa said.

    After the fire broke out on Monday, the flames raged through Rapa Nui national park, 3,500 km off the coast of Chile.

    More than 100 hectares of land in the Rano Raraku sector was reportedly affected by the fire, including where the Moai statues reside.
