Here is what I found about them for you.


Of course, the most intriguing thing about the island is the hundreds of massive statues called Moai, which line the coast. These were chiseled out of the volcanic basalt, which is found further inland. The other mystifying thing is how these massive monoliths (average weight 14 tons, height 13 feet) were transported to the coast and why. With different theories existing, it still remains as much a mystery today as it was when the "moais" first came to light.





About 900 of them exist in good condition. The Moai building and transportation perhaps took place between 1400 to 1600. What were the moais? Were they sprits of ancestors or important high-ranking men? Unfortunately mute stones tell no tales.
