DESCRIPTION:1 April-6 September 2015\nFree entry\n \nThe monumental stone
  statues of Rapa Nui (named Easter Island by European explorers) in the 
 Pacific are some of the most widely recognised archaeological objects in
  the world. Based on fieldwork on the island by Professor Colin Richards
 \, an archaeologist at The University of Manchester\, this exhibition ta
 kes a fresh look at these impressive statues\, or ‘moai’. \n\nMaking Mon
 uments looks at how the statues were made\, the role they played in the 
 lives of the islanders\, how they were quarried and transported across t
 he island\, and what they mean.\n\nIt also deconstructs some of the myth
 s about the island\, and discusses current theories about the decline of
  this astonishing culture.\n\nThe exhibition includes one of the statues
 \, Moai Hava\, which was collected from Rapa Nui in 1868\, and is on loa
 n from the British Museum.
