Sobre IBD

In the middle of the Pacific Ocean, farther from major civilization than almost anywhere else on Earth, a mysterious island civilization carved hundreds of colossal stone statues that continue to challenge historians, archaeologists, and explorers to this day. Easter Island: The Lost World of the Moai takes readers deep into the forgotten world of Rapa Nui-its legendary migrations, sacred ceremonies, environmental struggles, undeciphered rongorongo script, and the towering moai that still stand in silent watch across the volcanic landscape. From the first Polynesian navigators to the dramatic rise of the Birdman cult, this book reconstructs one of humanity’s most extraordinary civilizations in vivid detail.Blending archaeology, oral tradition, environmental history, oceanic exploration, genetics, and ancient mystery, this immersive study reveals how the people of Rapa Nui survived at the edge of the inhabited world and created one of the greatest ceremonial landscapes ever built. Perfect for readers fascinated by lost civilizations, ancient cultures, Polynesian history, megalithic monuments, and unsolved historical mysteries, this book explores the enduring legacy of Easter Island and the civilization that transformed stone into immortality.
