...but where is the "BUY IT NOW" button? Actually I am happy to see this go home, it is always refreshing to hear about people getting countries historical artifacts back to where they belong. Mahalo for sharing |

Excellent to see someone did the right thing and it didn't end up at the Mirage in Las Vegas. |

"It is one of a dozen statues known to reside outside of Easter Island, including two at the Smithsonian Institute's National Museum of Natural History in Washington, two at London's British Museum and two in the National Museum of Natural History in Santiago." Another heart-warming story about a moai on Easter. However, a large part of my heart wishes that Mirage MGM, Inc., would have purchased it (heaven knows that company can afford it) and put it next to the Volcano - much easier to enjoy it there. |

It may take a while, but eventually all Moai will be returned to Easter Island. Sabu |

Isn't that how they were placed on Easter Island in the first place? |
