2. It houses the outstanding Moai Paro, the largest transferred from the Rano Raraku quarry to his ahu successfully. Although lying down almost two centuries ago, this moai is a landmark in the history of statues, with height of 9.9 meters and an estimated weight of more than 80 tons. It was torn down and has not yet been restored. The gigantic pukao of almost 2 meters high and about 10 tons, located in front of the moai, also stands out as one of the bulkiest headdresses coming from Puna Pau. According to navigator accounts, this was one of the last Ahu with his moai erected.
