Mana Expedition to Easter Island : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mana Expedition to Easter Island
The Mana Expedition to Easter Island (Polynesian: ''mana'' means "good luck") occurred between March 1913 and August 1915. It was the first archaeological expedition to Rapa Nui which was privately organized and funded, preceding the Norwegian Archaeological Expedition to Easter Island of Thor Heyerdahl by more than 40 years. The Mana Expedition was led by Katherine and William Scoresby Routledge. The expedition and its ship, the ''Mana'', bore the same name. The ship left Falmouth, England on March 13, 1913 with a crew of twelve, including a surveyor, geologist, sailing master, navigator, engineer, cook, seamen, a cabin boy and the Routledges. They arrived on the southern coast of the island at Hanga Roa Bay, by way of the Strait of Magellan, on March 29, 1914, setting up their first camp at Mataveri, on the island's southwest corner.〔Pelta, p. 64〕 The English archaeologist O. G. S. Crawford referred to the expedition as "an archaeological fiasco". ==References==
