This is  Ahu Tongariki, the largest Ahu on Rapa Nui. Its Moai were toppled during the island"s civil wars and in the twentieth century the Ahu was swept inland by a tidal wave. It has since been restored and has 15 Moai including an 86 tonne moai that was the heaviest ever erected on the island.

Al acercarme a ti,
quiero escuchar tus palabras
hablándome desde el silencio de tu piel
esa porosidad de tu roca,
formas y fisuras, ya hablan por si solas.
Cuantas manos te crearon ya se anunciaron,
cuanto esfuerzo en tu traslado no está nada claro,
uno sólo con pukao, sería el mas trabajado.
