In Eastern Polynesia there sits what's been called "The World's Largest outside Museum" on the island of Rapa Nui, known to some westerners as Easter island. The island nation has been studied for it's Sacred Moa'i statues of Polynesian Ali'i or Ariki with Rapa Nui being a World heritage site with quite a few past expeditions of people trying to solve the mystery of how the Polynesians sculpted the Mega-ton statues, and then remarkably transported them to outer regions.
Some expeditions dumb-down theory with recently a new stunt on National Geographic presenting a 5 ton sculptural replica hoping to physically prove that hauling it with a team can easily be done today. However, the average Polynesian Rapa Nui statue on the island is "42 tons" not 5 tons and even the 5 ton replica thats supposed to prove a team can pull or walk it, doesnt look to be its true weight. The largest Polynesian Rapa Nui statue to be moved on the island nation before European navigation even began is 82 tons.
It's quoted from the local Polynesian inhabitants that "the statues walked", with that being a way to say "figure it out yourself and dont miss leg day" or it could be that they're telling the truth in a very vague way.
With the nation's fame for sculpting it has been a defamation target many a time with authors writing condescending works on the islands technology and ethnography, with wild theory of its former fallen economy due to over sculpting? In reality there was never more than 5-10,000 islanders at one time. Up until the 1800's Rapa Nui island had one of the largest top 15 (possible top 7) built statues in Human History. Today though with Asia's mainland economic booms the numbers are much different and mainland Asia has pushed their Mega-sculptural numbers over most of the worlds. Ancient Egyptian Art still remains and will forever be one the greatest places of sculptural accomplishment.
