Introduction

The stone statues of Rano Raraku are a unique concept partly because they are carved halfway and the other half is covered by nature. These carved stone statues, called guardians, are works of art made from debris from the surrounding dead volcanoes, with the largest being 21 meters tall. The impressive carving technique and materials used make it one of the world's famous landmarks.
