Big half buried moai portrait in Easter Island

Rano Raraku was a quarry for about 500 years until the early eighteenth century, and supplied the stone from which about 95% of the islands known monolithic sculptures (moai) were carved. Rano Raraku is a visual record of moai design vocabulary and technological innovation, where 397 moai remain. Rano Raraku is in the World Heritage Site of Rapa Nui National Park and gives its name to one of the seven sections of the park
