Ahu Tongariki is the largest Ahu on Rapa Nui/Easter Island. 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. Ahu Tongariki is close to Rano Raraku and Poike in the Rapa Nui National Park.

Tongariki
written by Alfred Asís, August 07, 2009
Como habitantes siempre vistos en panoramas de Rapa Nui
los Moai se muestran recortados al mar;
son señores siempre presentes
los de ayer no están ausentes
nos vigilan y acompañan de manera permanente.
