It is very helpful for understanding the history of the island. Looking at these stone statues that were knocked down and damaged, future generations can imagine the severity of the tribal conflicts on the island at that time. The size of the early stone statues was not too tall, and no tools were needed to knock them down. This unreconstructed stone platform is well preserved. It also provides help to archaeological experts in studying the history of Easter Island. The volcanic quarry Rano Raraku is dotted with hundreds of completed and unfinished giant Moai statues. It is a place that makes people imagine. Archaeologists have also conducted numerous investigations and speculations on these unfinished stone statues, but it is still an unsolved mystery. AHU TONGARIKI, a group of 15 stone statues, is the largest stone platform on Easter Island. There are a total of 15 tall stone statues and an extra-long stone platform. This group of stone statues represents a glorious period in the history of Easter Island sculpture. To this day, we are still sighing at the efforts of the original islanders in carving stone statues to worship their ancestors. The majestic, 220-meter-long stone platform is the largest ancient building group in the entire Pacific region, and is also the essence of Easter Island.
