Sonia Haoa Cardinali is a Rapa Nui archaeologist with extensive experience- 41 years- in Rapa Nui archaeology. She began her work with Dr. William Mulloy and the Orongo restoration project. She has worked with a multitude of international scholars in the management and direction of island excavations that include some of the largest and most impressive monuments on the island, and some 28,000 sites. She has directed the comprehensive island-wide survey of archaeological features and is also keenly interested in the prehistoric ecology of the island and has actively pursued a program of reforestation in conjunction with CONAF. Her abiding interest is in the way humans everywhere relate to the landscape and environment, and how to give back to the present the rich discoveries made in the past. Kathleen B. Ingersoll, BA, MA, PhD. Her academic interests lie in anthropology, environmental and landscape archaeology, food/horticulture, historic preservation and museum studies, and the interpretation of landscapes, especially in the eastern US and Polynesia. Her latest work includes consulting on museum exhibits for The Mata Ki Te Rangi Foundation on Rapa Nui, both on the island of Rapa Nui and in Tenerife, Spain. She is also a Master Leave No Trace environmental educator and believes in the importance of understanding the relationship between humans, nature, and heritage on a global scale. In this vein, she successfully designed and implemented study tours to Rapa Nui that combined Leave No Trace training with archaeology. Christopher M. Stevenson received his doctorate from The Pennsylvania State University in 1984 for his work on the archaeology of Easter Island (Rapa Nui).
