[post_page_title]Taking a tally[/post_page_title]
The last census taken of the island’s residents in 2012 showed there were 5,761 living on it, with about 60 percent of the population living there being of the native Rapa Nui people – and the others being Chileans or their offspring. Doesn’t sound like a lot? The all-time low for Easter Island’s population was 111 – all of them Rapa Nui – recorded in 1877. Of those 111 people, only 36 had descendants, but all of today’s Rapa Nui are genetically linked to those 36 people.
