The world's most mysterious island

Easter Island in Chile is located in the eastern part of the South Pacific Ocean, this island is 2,000 kilometers in the middle of nowhere, but for no reason thousands of giant stone statues, the most amazing thing is that these stone statues even the locals do not know where they came from and why they appeared here. Speaking of the name of this island, I believe that most people know better, it is Easter Island, is the world's most remote island, is the Dutch navigator found on Easter day, thus calling this name, the locals called this island Rapa Nui island, the locals in the West did not come before living a very primitive life, but with the discovery of the Western countries, the way the locals have changed.

Compound Island really came into everyone's view and became famous because of the many unexplained mysteries on the island. There are about 1,000 or more huge stone statues on the island, of which more than 600 stand by the sea in the southeastern part of the island, which people call Maui. These stone statues range in height from 3 meters to 21 meters and weigh up to 82 tons. These stone statues of different forms, some even wear a hat, at first glance is a landscape. Speaking of this stone statue, originally thought that the local people should know a little, I did not expect the local people are no impression of these stone sculptures, do not know where they came from, who carved.

In this regard, experts on the island in an attempt to unravel the mystery, but in the end can only put forward a variety of hypotheses, a variety of experts are each have their own say. Some speculated that the statues could have been carved from volcanic rock, but there is not much evidence to prove this speculation. Some people see these stone statues, can not help but praise the carver's wisdom and exquisite carving techniques, and each stone statue has its own characteristics, if it is man-made construction, then the construction of so many statues in the end what is used? Is it just for aesthetic purposes?

Until today, there is no very scientific explanation for the giant stone statue on Easter Island, to solve the problem at hand, only endless are speculation and verification, and even some think that this may not be carved by man, or perhaps nature's ingenuity, or even aliens. Of course, these statements are also clouds, without any scientific basis, want to uncover its mystery can only wait for experts to further examine and verify it.
