Some
believe that people from somewhere else arrived at the island and
constructed the shines and statues, but some feel that they were the
work of disturbed minds, elephants or extra-terrestrials were
responsible. Then there are the Rongorongo tablets that can be
deciphered in many ways depending on who is doing the deciphering.
Who made the statues that stand on Easter Island and how did they get to this remote island
to make the pieces of art that attract attention from all over the
world. A Dutch captain discovered the statues in 1722 on Easter Day. The
statues weigh tons and reach 30 feet tall. How could people with no
means to heavy lifting equipment
carve these statues? How could elephants have helped build these
statues when no signs of elephant remains are found on the 10-mile wide
by 15 mile long island.
Although
no one knows the right answer, some have speculated that the only way
for these statues to be constructed was from above by
extra-terrestrials. They would have the means to use laser beams
to carve the rock into statues. However, some feel that the Polynesians
traveled by canoes to the island and built the statues. It is said that
they were stuck there and couldn't leave so the long ear people became
the rulers and the other short-eared people were the workers that
created the statues. Therefore, most of the statues have long ears and
only a few display short ears.
The
statues appeared to be carved out of the side wall of the volcano and
then rolled to the bottom of the volcano where they were hoisted upright
by the estimated 11,000 islanders. Then it is said that after depleting
the islands resources to survive, they resulted to cannibalism.
Putting
elephants and Polynesians aside, there is another form of life that
could have preformed the task from above and not needed any pulleys or carving tools.
The long ears could be a characteristic of the form of life from space
that we know nothing about. They could have used Easter Island as a way
to develop their skills with laser beams. They could have constructed
the statues elsewhere and placed them on earth as a way of declaring the
earth their new takeover.
It
may not be possible to ever discover the truth about Easter Island.
Mystery and speculation is what we have now, which varies so much and
sometimes does not even may sense. However, one does not know for sure
who the statues are supposed to represent. Once someone determines who
the statue resembles, then maybe someone can say for sure who is
responsible for the mystery of Easter Island.
Until
then, it no one will ever know for sure if it was aliens from outer
space that are responsible and the only ones that could have the
resources to make such large and heavy statues of this type.
