Ana Kai Tangata Cave Entrance Easter .Ana Kai Tangata is one of the most interesting and accesible caves on the island. Its name has led to various speculations due to the different translations. On one hand, Ana, means “cave”; Tangata, means “man”; and Kai, means “to eat” in modern Rapa Nui. For which, the cave is referred to as “the cave of the cannibals” or of the “man-heaters”. However, there is no archaeological proof or any oral traditions that confirm that the Rapa Nui practiced cannibalism.
