what I know
Rapanui is the Maori word for Easter island
Voyagers used the sun, moon,stars,wind,ocean and
Clouds
if they were birds near by their is a island
Polynesians used to collect rainwater
They fished for food
Used winds to navigate
They used wood to make boats
In 2012 two waka-Te Aurere and Ngahiraka Mai Tawhiti sailed to Rapa nui
what I want to know
How did maui bring up islands?
What is the statues of Rapa Nui made of?
What is Hawaiki?
How does Maui bring up Island?
How did they make their fishing rods?
Who was the first to use the stars to navigate?
How did they know how to make a canoe or boat?
Where did the polynesian people go when they moved away
What I learned
The statues of Rapa Nui is maori word for Easter Island - The Statues and Rock Art of Rapa Nui. Using basalt stone bricks, the Maori were carved from the solidified volcanic ash of Rano Raraku volcano. They are all monolithic the carvings are created in one piece and an average weight of 20 tons and measuring 20 feet tall or more.
ONE of Maui's homes was near Kauiki, a place well known throughout the Hawaiian Islands because of its strategic importance. For many years it was the site of a fort around which fierce battles were fought by the natives of the island Maui, repelling the invasions of their neighbors from Hawaii.
Haleakala (the House of the Sun), the mountain from which Maui the demi-god snared the sun, looks down ten thousand feet upon the Kauiki headland. Across the channel from Haleakala rises Mauna Kea, "The White Mountain"-the snow-capped-which almost all the year round rears its white head in majesty among the clouds.
