Archeologists believe that Tongariki was the biggest ceremonial structure ever built on Easter Island. It contained the central ahu almost 100 meters/ 300 ft long and two additional smaller platforms on both sides. Fifteen moai of Ahu Tongariki form an outstanding monument. This is the biggest group of standing statues to this day.
