Moai

Le Moai esas granda petra skulturi su situanta sur Pasko-Insulo. Li konstruktesis da l'ancestri dil nuna indijena habitanti di Pasko-Insulo, le Rapa Nui, inter 1200 e 1600.

Olia signifiko o skopo ne esas totale certa, ma on konjektas ke li honorizas ula personi.

Moai diferas segun stilo e grandeso. On supozas ke to esas pro diferi di evo e di konstruktinta tribuo.

Famoza e kontroversala teorio di Jared Diamond e Clive Ponting supozas ke le Moai esis la chefa kauzo dil senforestigo* di Pasko-Insulo, ma co ne esas aceptata da multa experti. Ciencisti nun suspektas ke rati, qui manjis la semini di la maxim importanta palmieri sur l'insulo, esis la precipua minaco, ma ke klimatochanjo ed ecesiva hakado di arbori esis min importanta kauzi.
