The Mysteries Of Easter Island by Jean-Michel Schwartz. Ref: B0379

Title: The Mysteries Of Easter Island 
Author/Editor: Jean-Michel Schwartz
Description: What race of men built the immense, enigmatic Easter Island statues? How were these huge monoliths - many of them sixty feet long - transported on an island barren of the technology and materials necessary to move them?
'The mysteries of Easter Island' is a startling new penetration of a forgotten civilization which has mystified and fascinated researchers for centuries. Author Jean-Michel Schwartz reveals the astonishing dimensions of that vanished race and its enigmatic, enduring legacy: the legend of the los continent of Hiva; the secrets of mana - the mystic supernatural force which conveyed the monumental statues to their final resting places; the astounding meaning of the statues' positions - some with their backs to the ocean... some gazing outward across the limitless sea; and the startling similarities between the Islanders' rongo-rongo writing and symbols found in the Indus Valley and in ancient China.
Revealing at last the ancient ceremonies in which the giant statues played such a vital role, Jean-Michel Schwartz has brought to light the deepest mysteries of the lost Easter Island civilization, in all its wonder.
