How were the giant stone heads of Rapa Nui – also known as Easter Island – carved and raised, and why?

Now, a new generation of researchers is overturning old theories, revealing the rich history, innovation, and resilience of the Rapanui people, and uncovering intriguing new evidence about where they – and their practice of monumental stone building – came from.
