  • There is something that very few scientists have realized in regards to the statues on Easter Island in that the heads all face eastwardly, pointing to the continent of Lemuria.

    The original heads that were constructed there were an honoring of the home world, or the home continent, if you will. In that Easter Island was once a colony of the Lemurian Empire, and the colonists sometimes constructed these heads as an honoring of their homeland.

    This honoring is why these effigies were raised up facing home, facing Eastward, reminding the colonists of their origins, of where they came from. There were later attempts of this that were copying the effigies and the gods. These would have been constructed after the demise of Lemuria and that the original thread or connection to the homeland had been lost.

    At that time when those heads that were constructed in later periods were raised up, they were more done from a superstitious level, to appease the old gods, but the original heads were simply reminders of the homeland that the original colonists came from, that homeland being Lemuria.

    There was a time in which these islands, Easter Islands, were covered with trees, before natives began to cut down the trees to build houses and boats, and at some point the last tree was cut down, and no seeds or replanting was done and because of this, when the boats and houses rotted, the natives then had no means for fishing , no place to live, no way to survive.

    This was the hazard of living on an island and not protecting the vegetation on the island, for when it is gone, it is gone, and one cannot expect to rape and remove all foliage without destroying everything that is left.

    With respect…
