This is the magnificent Ahu Tongariki ceremonial structure with the largest number of Moai of all the Ahus. As with all the other Ahus, the Moai of Tongariki were knocked down, and the white coral eyes with obsidian pupils were removed so that the mana of the statues was removed. This Ahu also suffered a great tragedy when, in 1960, a tsunami hit the Island and swept all the toppled Moai and the stones that formed the platform like toys far inland.
In the 1990's an team of archaeologists, working in conjunction with a Japanese company to restore the Ahu. Tediously they identified stones from the Ahu and pieces of the Moai, based on photographs from before 1960. Today, all the 15 Moai are now once again standing in the same order they were raised. It is a powerful sight to see.

* Your Story of Art
As a fine-art photographer of many years (initially in black and white large format film), my purpose is to capture and share the incredible beauty in our world. I have a passion for travel and photographing the many places I have been fortunate to explore. I am enthralled by both the grand scene of a live volcano or brilliant sunrise and the amazing detail and design of each tiny part of a flower. There is beauty and design in everything around us and the goal of my work is to share that and encourage everyone to look closely and take the time to see what is before us all.
