📝 Description

Written by Thor Heyerdahl, 'Aku-Aku: The Secret of Easter Island' documents his 1955-1956 archaeological expedition to Easter Island. The book explores the mysteries of the island's giant stone statues (moai) and the culture of its indigenous inhabitants. Heyerdahl's work often challenged conventional archaeological theories, proposing trans-oceanic contacts between ancient civilizations, which is highly relevant to the speaker's broader themes of lost civilizations and ancient global connections.
