Due to the popularity of the over-sized Moai heads, the Mo’ai Kavakava is often neglected. The tiny wooden figures are lanky and thin men, which came from Easter Island too. It’s not wonder where the name kavakava came from since, it translates to the word ribs. Most believe they symbolized starving demons, which religious men wore during the island’s ritual dances and even community events.
