Ana Kai Tangata Cave Entrance Easter .Ana Kai Tangata is one of the most interesting and accesible caves on the island. Its name has led to various speculations due to the different translations. On one hand, Ana, means “cave”; Tangata, means “man”; and Kai, means “to eat” in modern Rapa Nui. For which, the cave is referred to as “the cave of the cannibals” or of the “man-heaters”. However, there is no archaeological proof or any oral traditions that confirm that the Rapa Nui practiced cannibalism.

This is the largest moai ever carved on easter island. It still sits at Rano Raraku ready to be moved to its final location. If completed and erected, would stand 21 meters high and weigh 270 tons.

$Some of the iconic Moai statues of Easter Island, half buried in the soil near the quarry at the extinct volcano of Rano Raraku. This quarry is known as the birthplace of the Moai and the Moai seen here hadn't even begun their journey to their respective Ahu (stone platforms) as they were still being carved out of the volcanic rock.\n\nThe Moai were constructed around five or six hundred years ago and represent the islanders' ancestors. They were all toppled after a period of tribal warfare broke out, though a number were restored in the twentieth century.$
