If you look at the map of the Seychelles (located in the Indian Ocean), you can see that they are located on a shallow platform - the shelf.
If we assume that this shelf was once land, then it was a large island, comparable in area to Madagascar. Is it possible that this was Lemuria?
In confirmation of the fact that this is part of the continental land, they say granites, the massifs of which are scattered over the island.
Reunion Island is one of the islands of this Seychelles group. Its coordinates: 21 ° 16 '50.00 "S 55 ° 47' 26.00" E

At one time, when the panoramio photo service was working in the Google Earth program, I came across some interesting photos there:
Basalt "pillars" very reminiscent of idols - statues from about. Easter.
A hand can be traced, parts of the head at the destroyed "idol".
Taller than a person and all about the same height. If someone once sculpted them, then obviously from basalt. But how can this be done from molten rock?
This photo shows one undersized idol. But it can be assumed that these "idols" are slowly squeezed out lava masses. A wavy surface is visible, the rock was crumpled when squeezed out.
It is possible that later someone processed these outputs and gave them the shape of a person. Or deities like this:
The Monkey King is Hanuman in India. Considering the fact that the Seychelles and India are in the same ocean, there could once have been a similar culture here.
But erosion did not spare the statue. Most likely, they are very old.
