| Theories abound on the mystic origins of Easter Island's Statues |
Located 3,500 km (2,174 miles) off the coast of Chile,
Easter island is the world's most remote inhabited
island - technically a conjoined trio of extinct
volcanoes that rise over 3,500 in (10,00 ft) from the
ocean floor. Fodder for widespread speculatiion. the
cultural development of Easter Island is shrouded
myth in relation to its giant statues dating back to
AD700 - some of which are over 1.2 m (4 ft) tall and
weigh around 14 tons. Theories as to how the rock-
hewn figures were carved then hauled and erected
range from ship-wrecked elephants to Atlantis and
arrivals from another world. Conjecture continues
regarding mystic energy fields, alien influence and
spiritual dynamics - one of the planet's last great puzzles.
