HOW TO MAKE WALKING MOAI
00:09  - 4 years ago
Legend said Moai walked by itself. But how did Moai walk? I show you my proposal. http://www.tegakinet.jp/moai.htm How I thought of walking moai I watched a special feature TV program of Easter Island in January, 2004. In this program, form of a base part of a moai was not flat, and Professor archeologist Charles love of Wyoming university explained that it was easy to incline forward when a moai stands on the ground. As for this, there is a description in a homepage of Kontiki Museum. http://www.museumsnett.no/kon-tiki/Research/Papers/walking_statue.html Some methods about a movement of a moai are suggested. Particularly,a method of Mulloi and http://www.museumsnett.no/kon-tiki/Research/Papers/walking/figs/fig1.html a method of Pavel are famous. http://www.museumsnett.no/kon-tiki/Research/Papers/walking/figs/fig4.html However, the nothing can explain that moais are easy to incline forward. How? Does the moai which I thought about seem to walk? Would the genuine moai walk in this way? Please send your opinion.
