Statues on Easter island may have been indicators for freshwater and fertile soil, scientists say
A new theory says that the statues on Easter Island „are best explained by the availability of the island’s limited freshwater“. The monuments may have played a role as indicators for these and for fertile-soil-resources important for a survival on the island with its dry climate. In addition, they probably had „their well-known ritual roles“, as explained in PLOS One.
