The scoria quarry at Puna Pau.

A half-buried topknot with carvings on it.

The entrance to Rano Raraku quarry.

Unfinished Moai waiting forever for buyers. The stoneworkers would finish the statue according to the buyerÕs specifications.

Two more unfinished works of art. Notice the European sailing ship carved into the one on the right, probably as a magical symbol.

Unfinished Moai still attached to the mountain.

The monster Moai partly buried and still attached.

The anomolous seated Moai. The features are quite worn and do not resemble the other Moai.

The lake inside Rano Raraku Crater where raftsmen race.
