Curious if any of you know of any good resources to find Easter Island designs? I've seen the bird/birdman design am I'm wondering if there are any other types of art or images like that and if you know of good places to find that material. Thanks. |

Thanks Buzzy, Ku, Bear, and hiltiki. I'll have to look into a couple of those books or see if the library has them. -Bear- thanks for the links. I came across a few of those already and that sea creatures link is what made me want to try to find other images. That Tomkins site looks like it has some good stuff. |

Came across this site today. http://www.chauvet-translation.com/TOC.htm Haven't looked through all of it but looks like it has a lot of good information. |
