Genetics across the Pacific

The above picture shows the unique stone statues made by different islanders.
The top one is the Marquesas Island statue, the middle one is the Mangarewa Islands statue.
The bottom left is from Raivavae Island, and the bottom right is from Easter Island.
It also shows those driving and riding.
The Polynesians in the double hull canoe explored the representative elements in their discovery, such as stars, bird’s flight paths, wind, weather, ocean currents, and ocean interference patterns from island atolls (such as the Tuamotu Islands in the center)
.

The islands of Polynesia are scattered on a vast sea that occupies one-third of the earth
.

Both historians and Polynesian oral stories prove that family groups ranging from 30 to 200 people have traveled thousands of kilometers across the ocean in a double-hull canoe to settle on new Polynesian islands
.

Andres Moreno-Estrada of the Scientific Research and Advanced Research Center of the National Institute of Technology of Mexico and colleagues used a data set of 430 samples of current humans to reveal the detailed genetic history behind these vast and scattered Pacific islands
.

These genomic analyses show that the entire migration began in Samoa, first spread to Rarotonga (Cook Islands) in the 9th century; spread to the Society Islands in the 11th century; reached the western part of the Southern Archipelago and the Tuamotu Islands in the 12th century; finally arrived Some islands that will be famous for the megalithic statues in the future: Marquesas Islands to the north, Raivavae Island to the south, and Easter Island to the east of Polynesia.
They settled through the Mangaleva Islands around 1200 AD
.

New evidence shows that although several scattered islands with the remains of prehistoric megalithic statues are separated by thousands of miles of ocean, they are genetically related
