TODAY IN ADVENTURE | | Easter Island Discovered | | On April 5th (that’s today!), 1722, Dutch explorer Jacob Roggeveen found the island Rapa Nui in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Chile. As they neared shore, the crew noticed a few of the tall, head-like sculptures that surrounded the high volcanic island. It being Easter, Roggeveen named his finding Easter Island, but at the time of his discovery there were over 2,000 people living there. This population was a remnant of the cultural flourishing of Rapa Nui people 100 years before. They created the iconic maoi statues that are now protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. | | |
