Or they use wooden rollers made from the trees that used to grow on the island?

Oh my God, it's coming towards us!

I would have assumed rollers to move those statues.

...and maybe they used both rollers and 'walking'.

Yes, it's odd but the deforestation of Easter Island never seems to come up when liberals are prating about how the "native peoples always lived in harmony with the environment." Or the moa being hunted to extinction by the NZ aborigines, or the pueblo cultures which turned the surrounding lands into desert...

Or the myth that FN's were tree-hugging pacifists....when the reality was that they practiced genocide and slavery.....

In Warroad Minn...a "war path/road" is still visible near the high-school. Going "on the war-path" was not just an expression....it was a ceremonial physical feature...

Brilliant deduction. Of course, that's how people move large heavy objects all the time. Who hasn't 'walked' a solid door off it's hinges or those cement patio pavers like that?

Now ask me how the Egyptians moved the blocks that made the pyramids . . .

The Easter Island natives always insisted that the statues walked to their current locations. I think this is as close as you're going to get. If it were possible to know 100%, I'd make a bet on this being the method.

How'd they stand them up...?

Ellie, it's the Maori and they pronounce it "aborigines" (at 1:56):

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
