" ... in fact evidence points to the palm becoming extinct soon after colonization."

Does that mean we can eliminate the theory that log rollers were used to move the moai into position?

The E Islanders moved those sculptures during the night, singing, In the midnight hour, moai, moai, moai.

Seriously, Thor Heyerdahl’s “Aku Aku” is worth reading. The nimmies who badmouth him clearly haven’t read it, or don’t remember it very well, because they never have any coherent criticism of it.
