Many were wood, often Palm & Fern wood, which quickly rotted in the hot & humid Polynesian climate. Many more that were made of stone were destroyed by missionaries & natives after converting to Christianity. Others were just lost to the jungle, fallen & buried they may still be found in the future, we just don't know where they are right now.
