S1 E5_Easter Island
Manage episode 276053597 series 2793488
Easter Island, or as its known to its inhabitants, Rapa Nui is one of the most remote places on the planet. In this episode, Ed will discuss how the first people made it to the island, the insights their "oral traditions" reveal and how European contact turned the whole place on its head. There's much more to the Rapa Nui than the amazing statues they erected. Those famous Moai will also be discussed, but spoiler alert - they had nothing to do with aliens!
