Rapa Nui mythology is a scientific issue. In the South Pacific, there is an uncharted “Easter Island” (“Rapa Nui” named by locals), with hundreds of large stone statues located on the beach. Later on April 5 of 1722 (Easter Day), Dutch explorers stumbled across this island while sailing at sea, which is also known as “Easter Island”. However, the question is: how did these stones end up on the island? How were such huge stone statues carved? For what? Therefore, it has caused a worldwide debate for the next hundreds of years, known as “Rapa Nui mythology”. Many people even believe that it was brought by aliens from outside the sky.
