POTD: Easter Island Statues, Hunt

Inspiration for this and one other statue near Hunt, Texas are located on one of the most isolated places on the planet: Easter Island. These stone icons known as moai total 887 and were created between 1400 and 1600 AD, constructed to represent the spirits of island ancestors.

At Stonehenge II outside of Hunt, however, you won’t find 887 moai but just two. They’re located on the opposite sides of the Stonehenge II creation.
