Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Orongo (Rapa Nui: Oroŋo) is a stone village and ceremonial center at the southwestern tip of Rapa Nui (Easter Island). It consists of a collection of low, sod-covered, windowless, round-walled buildings with even lower doors positioned on the high south-westerly tip of the large volcanic caldera called Rano Kau. Below Orongo on one side a 300-meter barren cliff face drops down to the ocean; on the other, a more gentle but still very steep grassy slope leads down to a freshwater marsh inside the high caldera.

Summary from Español / Spanish Wikipedia (eswiki)

Orongo, que significa en rapanui El Llamado,[1]​ es un yacimiento arqueológico de Chile, situado al sur-oeste de Rapa Nui en la cima del volcán Rano Kau.[2]​ Es una aldea ceremonial construida con motivo del culto de Make-Make y la competencia del tangata-manu.

Summary from Français / French Wikipedia (frwiki)

Summary from Italiano / Italian Wikipedia (itwiki)

Orongo (in rapanui: Oroŋo) è un villaggio di pietra e un centro religioso all'estremità sud-ovest di Rapa Nui (Isola di Pasqua). La prima metà delle 53 case in muratura di pietra del villaggio furono studiate e ricostruite nel 1974 dall'archeologo americano William Mulloy. Nel 1976 Mulloy, assistito dagli archeologi cileni Claudio Cristino e Patricia Vargas, completò l'opera di ricostruzione dell'intero complesso, che fu successivamente studiato da Cristino nel 1985 e nel 1995. Orongo si trova in una posizione drammatica, sul cratere del Ranu Kau in un punto in cui 250 metri di scogliera sul mare convergono con la parete interna del cratere del Ranu Kau. Oggi Orongo ha lo status di Patrimonio Umanitario in quanto parte del Parco Nazionale Rapa Nui.

Summary from Português / Portuguese Wikipedia (ptwiki)

Orongo é uma vila cerimonial localizada no sudoeste da Ilha de Páscoa, à margem da cratera do vulcão Rano Kau. Lá realizavam-se os primeiros rituais da corrida do ovo e do culto ao homem-pássaro.
