La isla de Pascua, situada en el océano Pacífico y uno de los lugares más remotos del planeta, guarda uno de los mayores misterios a los que se ha enfrentado nunca la arqueología. En esta isla volcánica de apenas 163,3 kilómetros cuadrados y una población que no supera las 4000 personas, pueden contarse hoy alrededor de 900 estatuas llamadas moai, estatuas que miden y pesan de media cuatro metros y catorce toneladas aunque alguna de ellas alcanza las ochenta toneladas y los veintiún metros. Pero el porqué las construyeron o como las transportaron desde la cantera en donde las tallaban no son los únicos enigmas de este insólito lugar. El mismo origen del pueblo rapanui, su lengua, su escritura aun sin descifrar, los restos de murallas ciclópeas, sus petroglifos, sus enterramientos y, sobre todo, sus extraños cultos y creencias, hacen que este sea sin duda uno de los lugares que mayores desafíos plantea a la Historia. El autor, que vivió en la isla durante dos meses recorriéndola de extremo a extremo y de rincón a rincón, nos ofrece en esta obra un resumen de todas las investigaciones realizadas hasta la fecha, las respuestas e hipótesis de los más destacados especialistas, el cúmulo de interrogantes aun pendientes y, como no, sus propias deducciones fruto de la reposada reflexión entre sus restos arqueológicos, de íntimas conversaciones con los lugareños y de la minuciosa y profusa documentación manejada. Un libro indispensable para cualquier persona que desee adentrase en las incógnitas y maravillas que esconde un lugar al que sus habitantes siguen llamando "el ombligo del mundo".

Más de 2.800 ejemplares vendidos en Amazon en sus dos primeros meses a la venta. Sinopsis: Un arqueólogo español entra a formar parte de una ambiciosa excavación que pretende arrojar un poco más de luz sobre los numerosos enigmas que todavía hoy persisten en torno a la Isla de Pascua. Un crimen atroz y la sospecha de hallarse ante un descubrimiento antropológico sensacional, le situarán en el centro de una conspiración de la que se acabará convirtiendo en involuntario protagonista. Tras el éxito de su primera novela (La esperanza del Tíbet), José Vicente Alfaro nos propone ahora un viaje lleno de intriga a uno de los lugares más cautivadores del planeta. A través de sus páginas tendremos ocasión de conocer la cultura rapanui y realizar un recorrido por la historia de la isla, deteniéndonos en sus episodios más destacados: el incierto origen de sus primeros pobladores, la fabricación y el traslado de los descomunales moai, las terribles guerras internas, el culto al hombre pájaro, su misteriosa escritura jeroglífica, el contacto con los primeros exploradores europeos, y la evangelización llevada a cabo por los misioneros católicos, poco antes de su definitiva anexión a Chile a finales del siglo XIX. ¿Te atreves a desvelar el secreto mejor guardado de la isla?

Easter Island, isolated deep in the South Pacific and now a World Heritage Site, was home to a fascinating prehistoric culture—one that produced massive stone effigies (the moai) and the birdman cult—and yet much of the island’s past remains shrouded in mystery. Where did the islanders come from, and when? How did Rapa Nui culture evolve over the centuries? How, and why, did their natural environment change over time? Paul Bahn and John Flenley guide readers through the mysteries and enigmas of Rapa Nui, incorporating the records of early explorers, folk legends, and archaeological evidence along the way. They cover the island’s geological and environmental history and explore its flora and fauna, illustrating how human actions affected the natural environment of the island. This fourth edition draws in: recent DNA studies of ancient human and animal bones as well as plant remains; evolving understandings of how the moai were transported; and current efforts to reforest the island.

Despite sickness in the final years of his life, Dos Passos presses on for adventure. He and his wife journey to Easter Island, where they explore the history behind the famous statues—called maois. “When I was a small boy,” Dos Passos says, “some kind person took me to the British Museum. There I saw a statue, a huge, rough, dark-gray statue with [a] long, sad, dark-gray face. The statue stared back out of deep, sunken eyes. What was it trying to say? To this day I can remember the feeling it gave me of savage, brooding melancholy.”

Easter Island, an isolated speck in the Pacific Ocean, produced one of the most fascinating and yet least understood of ancient cultures. Who were the inhabitants of this unimaginably remote volcanic island? Where did they come from? What, and equally intriguing, how did they erect the giant stone statues found all over the island? And what became of their civilization? - ;Easter Island, an unimaginably remote volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean, produced one of the most fascinating and yet least understood prehistoric cultures. Who were its inhabitants, and where did they come from? Why, and equally intriguingly, how did they erect the giant stone statues found all over the island? Paul Bahn and John Flenley tackle these and a host of other questions, introducing us, along the way, to the bizarre birdman cult found in the island's art, and the only recently deciphered Rongorongo script engraved on wooden panels. The Enigmas of Easter Island combines a wealth of new archaeological evidence, intriguing folk memories and the records of Captain Cook and other early explorers, to reveal how the island's decline may stem from ecological catastrophe. The result is a fascinating portrait of a civilization which still retains many of its mysteries. This book, originally published in 1992, was hailed as the best account of Easter Island ever written. Now it has been brought substantially up to date with a wealth of new material. -
