Travel back in time to more than 1200 years to the remotest island in the world.
Imagine how the first people would have travelled thousands of miles on rough seas to reach this remote and mysterious island.
It is as mysterious as it was 1200 years ago to the Raupini people as it was to the Dutch explorer who discovered the island in 1722 and to us the super humans of 21st century.
The island that was discovered on Easter Sunday.
Hundreds of gigantic monumental statues took the Dutch explorers breath away as it did to the hundreds of thousands visiting the island.
As for me, just seeing the pictures and the videos left me in awe and I'm dumbfounded.

Who were the first people to inhabit this remote island? From where did they come? What did they do for a living? How did they thrive? What was their culture?
