[[They made Statues before they ran out of Food and started eating each other]]
“Easter Island Job opportunity- plenty of fresh air in a lovely environment, lots of leisure time, and all you can eat buffets Daily. Remember, if it tastes like chicken, then that’s what it is... most likely... Except in extre... oh never mind, it’s chicken”
No fava beans and Chianti to go with the liver? Tsk. Tsk
No. They did eat fish. They used the trees to make large rafts to go deep sea fishing. And they used trees to roll the statues around on the ground. Eventually, they had chopped down all of the trees and could no longer go deep sea fishing. Their economy collasped. When the white men arrived the natives were already close to starvation and were fighting amounst themselves. Reminder for the future. Always re-plant trees after the harvest of mature trees. Keep making more trees. Replinish the resource.
