Light at the Edge of the World: The Wayfinders Part 2

[JUKIO01]

i want to get a boat and sail around like this, looks so fun and adventerous

[RaymGhost]

inferieur..right??

[tekakaromatagi]

No artifacts from South America in the South Pacific? What about Ahu Vinapu in Rapa Nui? It is an example of Inca stone work in Rapa Nui.

Why did they sail?

When everything was created at the beginning of time, the Creator sent E-rua-i-te-arai to go and look for new lands. So when they went to sail, they were participating in the creation of things.

It is correct, exploring was a way for social advancement. Te Agiagi told his older brothers, "I fear the shadow of your digging sticks."

[GuamKomudo]

No south Americans found Polynesia. It was south east Asians, they have done DNA research, language similarities, Polynesia has many of the same native plants and animals, old relics ect. I will admit, it would be VERY easy for south A to find Rapa Nui, and I would not be suprized if they did at one point, but Rapa Nui natives have been DNA traced back and have the same DNA features as everyone else in Polynesia, South East Asian orgin.

GuamKomudo

Yes, I agree with you.

early Black race? Mongoloid? go away dumbass lol damn mut

[Ixtulu]

yes this is true - go into the web and search for Abrogines-South America - and you will find a lot of results. This is definitely proofed by science - Peter

[DragonToes13]

what for I didn't say they didn't and I didn't say they did, I said what do you care

[oppa1987]

im doin a reseach paper on oceania, did early modern humans sailed to those islands on purpose? or were they just lucky to find lands?

[Ixtulu]

First Modern Humans arrived in South East Asia around 70.000 ya. During the iceage the sealevel was 100 m deeper as today - New Guinea and Australia were connected - nevertheless they had to cross some hundrets of miles on sea to discover Australia - this was around 65.000 years ago. Also Melanesia was peopled in the stone or iceage. If people crossed the Pacific in the iceage, we have no evidences, but scientists hardly believe in it, found the islands by accident, probably S-America.

[DragonToes13]

Ixtulu the most fun thing to call a racist is a "MUT" lol . usually they're under the impression they come from some other distant pure gene pool lol- obviously you've picked up some mid- 1900's material, mixed with your personal theory-

[DragonToes13]

figure the rest out yourself

[DragonToes13]

You can't even plant SETTLEMENTS in South America unless you come through the pacific - unless you go all the way through Alaska-

there is obviosly an admixture in the South American Cultures - Olmecs- Chimu- Aztec- chavin- moche-Nazca-Sican- Fijians are great Navigators as well

[Ixtulu]

It looks like, that Aborigin-Melanesian people discovered S-America first, around 20.000 years ago - long before Paleo-Indians from Siberia arrived. The oldest skulls in S-America are negroid and not mongolian - scientists believe they came by watercrafts to the west of S-America. Some thousend years they lived in peace, untill the first Indians came (9000ya) All younger skulls are mongoloid. Only in S-America was the early black race, after they disappeared.

Sealevel was round 100 m deeper.

[DragonToes13]

I don't think thats completely correct and what do you care, what wanna make a name for yourself? stay outa pacific history unless you're Pacifican

[DragonToes13]

Melanesians can stick up for themslves but since they're not here - might as well get a punch in for em for the hell of it lol - Are you sure Melanesians and Australian originals are the same wave? And what wave would the Fijian be

[DragonToes13]

1,700 was the decline in polynesia- and no we didn't come from South America- Australia dates to 70000 Bp. the Australian Originals- one of the first waves out of Africa- the North was covered in Ice and Neanderthals - SOUTH East Asia has a LONG History

[DragonToes13]

also Polynesians hit a Dark age a LONG tiem ago - for thousands of years there was a thriving Horticulture , they did not just move to island to island- plants agriculture- domestication of animals such as the Dingo which was brought to Australia - domestication of Chickens, and other flightless birds , irrigation , the video is for tourists

[DragonToes13]

The Kawi Script is not in the Polynesian Triangle, but it is in the South Orient Polynesian area - along the development of the Pallava systems - rig vedas  etc etc

[DragonToes13]

Sacajawea had to show dumb and dumber where to go - Lewis & Clarke expedition - Polynesians were apart of some crews, guess who burned some of the staffs - It was said some the order of Sacred HEARTS- but who cares really - Austronesian Languages covered 2/3rds of the globe the root for most languages is Austronesian- the dates are also debated - the pacific is VERY old

[DragonToes13]

The video is lame- why did you mail me porpoisefathom ? Meteorology and Navigational Astronomy , Navigation , it seesm to be called anything other than what it was - Who came up with "WAYFINDING" - Euros were lost - Columbus thought he ws in India- thats why Indians are called Indians- cause guy thought he was in "INDIA" we are Navigators- Polynesians had writing- thousands of staff with writing were written about- some things like the Santiago tablets remain-

[DragonToes13]

The only settlement that was starting was New Zealand, Easter Islanders were leaving - most likely heading to other islands like New Zealand and other parts of Tahiti

[DragonToes13]

They're in a War type vessel - looks like a Pahi type , I don't think it's it's big enough though -

[DragonToes13]

wave pattern 'fingerprints' and the stars to travel to thousands of islands? Thats called

Meteorology and Navigational Astronomy-

[porpoisefathom]

DragonToes13- i call it water "tracking"...see my videos if you like...its described a little in them.

[DragonToes13]

Ok Polynesia started declining about 1700 years ago it was already thousands of years old- Easter island had few families left- The script in Easter Island is one of the oldest scripts in the world, next to scripts like the Indus Valley script - leave it to National Geographic to fuck up history

[DragonToes13]

hmm

[cheddar21]

Amazing.
