Moai

Moai are the monolithic human stone sculptures of Easter Island. The massive statutes are generally thought to be representations of the deified ancestors of the Rapanui people, who likely produced them between 1250 and 1500 CE.

Despite Haber's conversion from Judaism and his service during World War I, he was exiled from Germany following the Nazi rise to power. Which of Haber's inventions did the Nazis likely use to kill many of his relatives during World War II? More... Discuss
