Abstract
Two examples of artifact collections that were brought back from the South Seas by Yankee
whalers are documented. Among them is a singular head of a wooden moai from Rapa Nui
(Easter Island), which is analyzed here and absolutely dated. This small sculpture is
associated with an early phase of the American whaling industry in the Pacific.
