Never Before Seen On The Internet (I think). The secret Make-Make cave of Easter Island. I scoured the island for days searching for this cave and was delighted to finally find it and document it for the world. Make-Make was the creator deity of Easter Island and it’s cult was present, I’m told, from the very beginnings through the statue building period and through the Orongo period. I believe this cave has never before been shown on the internet. Most people have never heard of it and while rumors of its existence persist on the island today, few claim to have ever seen it personally.
