Authorities on Easter Island say that the several of the territory's famed Moai statues sustained significant damage after a massive fire spread through a national park containing many of the iconic monuments. The monstrous blaze reportedly erupted last week and covered a staggering 247 acres of the Rapa Nui national park, where hundreds of the iconic and mysterious stone pieces have sat for centuries. Director of the indigenous Ma'u Henua community which oversees the park, Ariki Tepano, lamented that damage done to the statues was "irreparable" and indicated that not only were multiple Moai badly charred, but the "consequences go beyond what the eyes can see."
