Thor Heyerdahl: the Story of a Great Adventurer
With no knowledge of metals, the early inhabitants of Easter Island carved their giant statues with Stone Age tools. But how did they raise them into an upright position? And how did they move them to sites all over the island?
Thor Heyerdahl set out to solve these age-old riddles one by one. In doing so, he moved ever closer to the central mystery of Easter
Island itself. Who were these fanatical sculptors? And where did they come from? Narrated by Christopher Railing.
