Hoa Hakananai'a references on wikipedia


Hoa_Hakananai'a
Hoa Hakananai'a is a moai (Easter Island statue) housed in the British Museum in London. The name Hoa hakanani'a is from the Rapa Nui language; it means (roughly) "stolen or hidden friend." It was removed from Orongo, Easter Island on 7 November 1868 by the crew of the English ship HMS Topaze, and arrived in Portsmouth on 25 August 1869. In 2000 the statue was moved from its previous display in the Wellcome Trust Gallery to the new Great Court.
