We now know how the Easter Island giants were transported.
Easter Island Giants

The significance of the Easter Island gigantic heads has been unresolved for hundreds of years, but we ought to know how they were created and brought to their permanent site. Three components make up the moai statues. a broad yellow body a red hat or top knot as well as white inset eyes alongside a coral Iris within 1 000 of them were generated the main bodies of the majority of the statues were created out of volcanic difficult from a local Quarry in what utilised to be a volcano the substance is easy to carve but rather than so easy to transport that's undoubtedly why investigators found over 300 incomplete moai back in the Quarry the rest of them remain in various spots facing the villages as if viewing over the locals so it appears like the statues were carved lying on their backs then their creators separated them from the rock move them down slope as well as set them in a vertical position to complete the work immediately it was done it was moments to get the statue to its structure now if you've ever moved resides you know how physically hard it is so envision having to shift a statue that is regarding half as heavy as a house with no a car or any modern machinery for a separation of three miles the residents must have created some original way of performing it and scientists attempted to re-create it to believe what it was they tried pulling moai replicas on wooden sleds they thought an individual could have used palm trees for that objective but this theory has been debunked the most effective experiment so far was wielding ropes to rock the statue down the roadway in a standing position this method sounds real since the local rapper no I Legends stated that the moai walked from the Quarry and of naturally they needed a good road to get there in the early 20th century the investigator Catherine Rutledge discovered an 800 year old Road Network on the island it was a bunch of Pathways within 15 feet wide heading from the tribunal she thought that those roads were symbolic and not constructed just for the statues she wasn't a famous scientist back then so others mainly ignored the theory multiple decades later famous Norwegian Adventurer as well as archaeologist Thor heredol published his concept he stated that the roads were built only to transport the moai and some of the statues were dropped together the roads for some evidence but in 2010 researchers found that the statues weren't at random fell they actually reached their final destinations as they were all set on concealed platforms plus the road floor was u-shaped so pulling enormous statues along them wouldn't be easy you might still find roughly 15.5 miles of these roads on the island as well as see them from satellite pictures and it looks like Catherine Rutledge was right about them Halfway around the world, in Southern England, lies another enigma. The roads were likely constructed for pilgrims travelling to a sacred volcano, and the moai sitting by them served as signposts. Made of Stone a massive sound illusion a symbol of unity a burial ground or greater scientists are still discussing the objective of Stonehenge it took Neolithic Builders around 1500 years to build this Beauty created of roughly 100 Stones standing straight in a circle millions of tourists come to see it every year as well as Heritage protectors were worried regarding the modern Road snaking close to the symbol that contemporary Road is now sunk into the ground below the grass level as well as even though archaeologists believed they could find an older Road under it they didn't possess any high hopes but when they utilised off a layer of asphalt they noticed two parallel ditches that were almost perpendicular to the Road the ditches linked the shortened portions of the Avenue that's what the archaeologists call the ancient route leading up to Stonehenge it indicates that the ancient individuals used to visit the monument for their purposes and undoubtedly some ceremonies another intriguing find during a dry summer was three dry patch signifies within the stone circle it appears like they were left there by three massive boulders so Stonehenge might have been a full circle once in 2021 archaeologists discovered a Roman Road submerged in the Venetian Lagoon the reality that it runs there on the bottom for nearly 4 000 feet is evidence that the Romans were here prior to sea levels Rose as well as flooded the area it encourages the theory that there was an important settlement here centuries prior to Venice was established at the spot in the 5th Century CE the ancient Romans were excellent at a lot things and one of them was building roads and it appears like they weren't afraid to work on the trickiest terrain The old Road was constructed directly on the sand, according to scans, and it calls for some considerable expertise. Put yourself in a village from more than a thousand years ago. Researchers discovered this village in 2011 in present-day El Salvador. They believe a large celebration occurred in a Maya village called Sarin more than 1400 years ago. The entire village was getting ready for the main Temple for the ceremony when a nearby volcano erupted. The 200+ residents had no opportunity to rush back to their homes. They were left behind, frozen in time, with still half-eaten food on the plates and personal items left in a hurry. All Sac ach roads had a stone outer layer, but this one's outside layer was constructed of ash, which is hilarious because it demonstrates that the Maya didn't simply employ stones to construct their roads. Since Pontius Pilot was the local governor when the Road was built, it is almost certain that he gave the order. Pilgrims most likely used this Road to get to Temple Mount for battle. The pathway, constructed with over ten thousand tonnes of limestone, was nearly as broad as a London bridge. The original Travellers moved around the globe down the trails for thousands of miles before the initial Europeans arrived, and they even used it to transport trade goods during the last ice age. This ancient highway, known as the old North Trail, was used by the people of North America for ten thousand years, first on foot, then with dogs, and finally with horses. the people who crossed via Asia on the Bering land bridge approximately 15 000 years ago, as well as settled in North America, may have used the ice-free corridor to travel to visit relatives, find a mate, or simply explore. Researchers keep uncovering evidence that the Blackfoot Indians' tales and legends about this Trail are true, and it may even be the route used by one of the largest human migrations. The nakasendo highway, one of the five primary routes utilised by the feudal lords as well as their households to travel to the Capitol, originated in the 17th century in Japan during the Edo period and runs along the Rockies, which subsequently grew a part of the Trail. The 310-mile Road operates across mountain ranges before plunging onto the plain. There were 69 post stops along the route where travellers could stay the night. The Road was constructed for horses and pedestrians.
