I believe that the Polynesians responsible for the erecting of the Easter Island heads were carving them for religious purposes, as any imperfect statues were abandoned and the broken ones left roadside. Evidence shows that the people of the island had exhausted their supply of timber by the time their civilization fell, and that helps explain their method of moving the statues from the ledges they were carved from to their final places. Personally, I think that the islanders eased the statues onto a wooden sled horizontally. The sled would be on several logs that could roll the statues, and when each log came from beneath the figure, it could be placed at the front of the line of logs.
