1. Where is Rapa Nui located? When do archaeologists believe the Rapa Nui statues were constructed? How will you display this information in your exhibit? Rapa Nui is located in the southern Pacific Ocean. They were constructed about 1500 AD. I will write it on paper or a wiki.

The statues were made from volcanic tuff (compressed ash). They were moved by several logs as wheels and as one log came out it was immediately moved to the front of the line. They were erected on giant platforms

3. What theories do archaeologists have about the purpose these statues? How will you display these theories in your exhibit?

The purpose of these statues was religious and spiritual reasons. I will probably write the theories down or put them in
