"The volcanic Puna Pau quarry was used to make the reddish, cylindrical pukao (topknots) that were placed on many moai. Some 60 of these were transported to sites around the island" Full review

"Scoria, the reddish stone used to make topknots for the moai, was once excavated at this quarry...the views of the island from the top of the hill are worth the short climb." Full review
