Having been there, I got the distinct impression that the Rapanui do not consider the Moai to be "tikis". Tikis come from the Marquesas and Hawaii. They seem to consider the Moai to be something quite different from those. That was my impression anyway. I wish I could be there tonight, but getting there by 6PM through LA traffic after work on a Thursday is a daunting prospect. |
