How did the statues on Easter Island get there?
How were the statues moved?A Dutch drawing from 1728, right, seems to show natives moving an Easter Island statue in an upright position. Although it is unclear in this image whether what is being depicted is moving or erecting, Thor Heyerdahl was told by village elders that the statues walked from the quarry to the ahu. While this seems fanciful some have considered that it meant the statues where moved in an upright position.Several experiments were carried out and although it was proven that the statues could have been moved by rocking and rolling their bases similar to the way we would move a refrigerator or large piece of furniture, the method would have caused so much damage to the base of the statue that it would seem an unlikely method except when the statue was at the end of its journey and ready for final positioning.
What did the archaeologist discover about early man's ability at Stonehenge and Easter Island?
Stonehenge and Easter Island have enormous boulders that have been moved great distances. It took a lot of engineering to accomplish those feats. Shape and also transport (sometimes over considerable distances) large pieces of stone which they then managed to erect in their chosen location. It is a remarkable example of man moving large intact objects, carve things, and have an understanding of the relationship of the Sun to the seasons and calendar. They planned and built complex structures, placed large statues and figured out ways to lift things in a time when man had no machines to help them do this. It is a mystery today how they built Stonehenge, and got the Statues on Easter Island.

What are characteristics of early greek sculpture?
Greek statues are so admired because the sculptors who made them tried to make them look perfect. They wanted their statues to show how beautiful people could be. To improve their art, these sculptors carefully studied the human body, especially how it looked when it was moving. Then, using what they had learned, they carved stone and marble statues. As a result, many Greek statues look as though they could come to life at any moment. Hoped that helped! Most of their statues' noses have worn down or crumbled off over all this time as well.
How do you get to temple of courage?
If you have the Sun Key (you should), go to Molida Village and go into Romanos' dad's REAL hideout. Go along the passage and you will find the Sun Door. Go through it and, when you surface, you will eventually find the door to the temple is locked. Go around the north part of the island and you should come across a face-like statue. Hit it with your sword and a blue laser should come out of its head; direct this towards the door to the temple by tapping the statue and moving it around. There are three of these statues in the north part of the island. When you have done as above to all three statues, the door will open.
