Discovered on Rapa Nui (Easter Island) in 1868, the massive basalt statue known as Hoa Hakananai'a was transported to England on the HMS Topaze and given to the British Museum. In this report, Van Tilburg (Director, Easter Island Statue Project) describes the statue and discusses its aesthetic connections with other Rapa Nui objects held in museum collections around the world. This is a considerably revised and updated version of the 1992 British Museum Occasional Paper No. 73. Distributed in the U.S. by the David Brown Book Co.
