'''Navigasi Polinesia''' tradisional digunakan selama ribuan tahun dalamdi melakukandalam perjalanan panjang yang melintasi ribuan mil dari [[Samudra Pasifik]] [[Zona pelagik|terbuka]]. Para [[navigator]] melakukan perjalanan ke pulau-pulau kecil yang berpenghuni dengan menggunakan teknik-teknik [[Wayfinding|pencarian jalan]] dan pengetahuan yang diturunkan dengan [[tradisi lisan]] dari seorang guru kepada muridnya, yang seringkalisering kali dalam bentuk lagu. Umumnya setiap pulau mempertahankan asosiasi para navigator dengan status yang sangat tinggi; di mana pada saat kelaparan atau ketika kesulitan mereka dapatbertahan berdagangdengan sebagaicara bantuanberdagang atau mengevakuasi orang-orang ke pulau tetangga. DiPada tahun 2014, metode [[navigasi]] tradisional ini masih diajarkan di [[Polynesian outlier|kalangan pencilanterpencil Polinesia]] di [[Pulau Taumako]] di [[Islands of the Solomon Islands|Kepulauan Solomon]].
Navigasi Polinesia menggunakan beberapa instrumen navigasi, yangdengan terlebihbentuk dahululawas dan berbeda dari alat logam mesin yang digunakan oleh para navigator Eropa (seperti [[sextant]], yaitu alat navigasi yang pertama kali diproduksi dipada tahun 1730; alat seperti [[astrolab laut]], dari sekitar akhir abad ke-15; dan [[Marine chronometer|kronometer laut]], yang ditemukan dipada tahun 1761). Namun, merekaalat-alat jugaini sangat bergantung pada pengamatan dekat pada tanda laut, serta pengetahuan yang luas yang berasal dari tradisi lisan.<ref name="Leisl Clark">{{Cite web|url=https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/ancient/polynesia-genius-navigators.html|title=Polynesia's Genius Navigators|last=Clark|first=Liesl|date=15 February 2000|access-date=17 November 2016}}</ref>

[[File:Polynesia.png|thumb|A projection of the [[Polynesian triangle]] on the globe.]]
Between about 3000 and 1000 BC speakers of Austronesian languages spread through the islands of [[Southeast Asia]] – almost certainly starting out from [[Taiwan]],<ref name="howe20069298">{{Citation |title=Vaka Moana: Voyages of the Ancestors – the discovery and settlement of the Pacific |last=Howe |first=K. R |year=2006 |publisher=David Bateman |location=Albany, Auckland |pages=92–98}}</ref> as tribes whose [[Taiwanese aborigines|natives]] were thought to have previously arrived from mainland South China about 8000 years ago – into the edges of western [[Micronesia]] and on into [[Melanesia]]. In the archaeological record there are well-defined traces of this expansion which allow the path it took to be followed and dated with a degree of certainty. In the mid-2nd millennium BC a distinctive culture appeared suddenly in north-west Melanesia, in the [[Bismarck Archipelago]], the chain of islands forming a great arch from [[New Britain]] to the [[Admiralty Islands]]. This culture, known as [[Lapita]], stands out in the Melanesian archeological record, with its large permanent villages on beach terraces along the coasts. Particularly characteristic of the Lapita culture is the making of pottery, including a great many vessels of varied shapes, some distinguished by fine patterns and motifs pressed into the clay. Within a mere three or four centuries between about 1300 and 900 BC, the Lapita culture spread 6000 km further to the east from the Bismarck Archipelago, until it reached as far as [[Tonga]] and [[Samoa]].{{sfn|Bellwood|1987|pp=45–65}} In this region, the distinctive Polynesian culture developed. The Polynesians are then believed to have spread eastward from the Samoan Islands into the Marquesas, the Society Islands, the Hawaiian Islands and Easter Island; and south to New Zealand. The pattern of settlement also extended to the north of Samoa to the Tuvaluan atolls, with [[Tuvalu]] providing a stepping stone to migration into the [[Polynesian outliers|Polynesian Outlier communities]] in [[Melanesia]] and [[Micronesia]].{{sfn|Bellwood|1987|pp=29, 54}}<ref name="Bayard">{{cite book |last1=Bayard|first1=D.

There are numerous traditional Polynesian devices used for navigating and/or teaching navigation. These include charts, spatial representations of islands and the conditions around them, and navigational instruments, such as those for measuring the elevation of celestial objects. They also include non-physical devices such as songs and stories for memorizing the properties of stars, islands, and navigational routes.
Sekitar tahun 3000 dan 1000 SM para penutur bahasa Austronesia berada tersebar di pulau-pulau [[Asia Tenggara]]; yang kemungkinannya berada dari [[Taiwan]],<ref name="howe20069298">{{Citation |title=Vaka Moana: Voyages of the Ancestors – the discovery and settlement of the Pacific |last=Howe |first=K. R |year=2006 |publisher=David Bateman |location=Albany, Auckland |pages=92–98}}</ref> sebagai suku dengan [[penduduk pribumi Taiwan|penduduk asli]] yang diperkirakan sebelumnya telah tiba dari daratan Cina Selatan, sekitar 8000 tahun yang lalu – ke ujung barat [[Mikronesia]] yang kemudian menjadi [[Melanesia]]. Di dalam sebuah rekaman arkeologi terdapat jejak-jejak yang jelas atas peristiwa perluasan ini, yang menunjukkan jalan yang perlu diikuti dengan sebuah tingkat kepastian. Pada pertengahan milenium ke-2 SM sebuah budaya khas muncul tiba-tiba di barat laut Melanesia, di [[Kepulauan Bismarck]], yaitu sebuah rantai pulau yang membentuk lengkungan besar dari [[Britania Baru]] ke [[Kepulauan Admiralty]]. Budaya ini, yang dikenal sebagai [[Lapita]], muncul di dalam rekaman arkeologi Melanesia, di mana desa-desa permanennya yang besar berada di bagian teras pantai di sepanjang pesisir. Karakteristik budaya Lapita yang khas adalah pembuatan tembikar, termasuk pembuat bejana dengan jumlah yang sangat banyak dengan berbagai bentuk; yang beberapa diiantaranya dibedakan oleh pola-pola halus dan motif-motif yang dibentuk dari tanah liat. Dalam waktu tiga atau empat abad, yaitu sekitar tahun 1300 hingga 900 SM, budaya Lapita menyebar 6000 km lebih ke arah timur dari Kepulauan Bismarck, hingga mencapai [[Tonga]] dan [[Samoa]].{{sfn|Bellwood|1987|pp=45–65}} Tembikar Lapita ini bertahan di tempat-tempat seperti [[Samoa]], [[Tonga]], dan [[Fiji]] selama bertahun-tahun setelah keberadaannya di Polinesia Barat dan Tengah. Namun, pembuatan tembikar berhenti di sebagian besar Polinesia karena kelangkaan tanah liat di pulau-pulau tersebut.<ref name="Originalpeople.org">{{cite web|title==Lapita culture: ancestors of Polynesians, Micronesians, and some coastal areas of Melanesia|url=http://originalpeople.org/lapita-culture/|website=Originalpeople.org|accessdate=11 April 2018|archive-date=2018-05-12|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180512162838/http://originalpeople.org/lapita-culture/|dead-url=yes}}</ref> Di wilayah ini, budaya Polinesia yang khas telah berkembang. Polinesia kemudian diyakini telah menyebar ke timur dari Kepulauan Samoa ke Marquesas, Kepulauan Society, Kepulauan Hawaii dan Pulau Paskah; dan arah selatan ke Selandia Baru. Pola pemukiman juga diperluas ke arah utara Samoa ke atol Tuvaluan, dengan [[Tuvalu]] yang menyediakan batu loncatan dalam bermigrasi ke [[Polinesia|komunitas terpencil Polinesia]] di [[Melanesia]] dan [[Mikronesia]].{{sfn|Bellwood|1987|pp=29, 54}}<ref name="Bayard">{{cite book |last1=Bayard|first1=D.

== Kano-kano dan Navigasi ==
==Navigational techniques==
Orang-orang Polinesia menjumpai hampir setiap pulau di dalam [[Segitiga Polinesia]] yang luas dengan menggunakan perahu kano atau perahu gandeng ganda. Kano-kano bergandeng-ganda ini merupakan dua lambung besar, yang panjangnya sama, dan mengibas secara berdampingan. Ruang antara kano paralel digunakan sebagai penyimpanan makanan, alat-alat berburu, serta jaring-jaring untuk memulai perjalanan panjang.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Bellwood|first1=Peter|title=The Polynesians Prehistory of an Island People|url=https://archive.org/details/polynesiansprehi00bell|date=1978 |publisher=Thames and Hudson|location=NY| isbn=9780500020937|page=[https://archive.org/details/polynesiansprehi00bell/page/39 39]}}</ref> Polinesia menggunakan teknik-teknik navigasi strategis dengan bintang-bintang, [[Arus air laut|arus laut]], dan pola angin.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Bellwood|first1=Peter|title=The Polynesians Prehistory of an Island People|year=1978|url=https://archive.org/details/polynesiansprehi00bell|tanggal=1978|publisher=Thames and Hudson|location=New York|isbn =9780500020937|halaman=42}}</ref>
Polynesian navigators employed a whole range of techniques including use of the stars, the movement of ocean currents and wave patterns, the air and sea interference patterns caused by islands and [[atoll]]s, the flight of birds, the winds and the weather.<ref name="Gatty_1958">{{harvnb|Gatty|1958}}.</ref>

[[Harold Gatty]] suggested that long-distance Polynesian voyaging followed the seasonal paths of [[bird migration]]s. In "The Raft Book",<ref>"[http://blog.library.si.edu/tag/harold-gatty/ Be Your Own Navigator]," ''Smithsonian Libraries Unbound'', 11 February 2016.</ref> a survival guide he wrote for the U.S. military during World War II, Gatty outlined various Polynesian navigation techniques Allied sailors or aviators wrecked at sea could use to find their way to land. There are some references in their oral traditions to the flight of birds and some say that there were range marks onshore pointing to distant islands in line with the [[West Pacific Flyway]]. A voyage from Tahiti, the Tuamotus or the Cook Islands to New Zealand might have followed the migration of the [[long-tailed cuckoo]] (''Eudynamys taitensis'') just as the voyage from Tahiti to Hawai{{okina}}i would coincide with the track of the [[Pacific golden plover]] (''Pluvialis fulva'') and the [[bristle-thighed curlew]] (''Numenius tahitiensis''). It is also believed that Polynesians employed shore-sighting birds as did many seafaring peoples. One theory is that they would have taken a [[frigatebird]] (''Fregata'') with them. These birds refuse to land on the water as their feathers will become waterlogged making it impossible to fly. When the voyagers thought they were close to land they may have released the bird, which would either fly towards land or else return to the canoe.<ref name="Gatty_1958" />
Terdapat banyak peralatan yang digunakan oleh para navigator Polinesia tradisional yang digunakan untuk navigasi dan/atau mengajar navigasi. Diantaranya grafik-grafik, representasi spasial pulau-pulau dan kondisi-kondisi di sekitar mereka, serta instrumen navigasi, seperti pengukuran ketinggian benda-benda langit. Perangkat-perangkat ini juga termasuk perangkat non-fisik seperti lagu-lagu dan cerita-cerita yang digunakan untuk menghafal sifat-sifat bintang, pulau, dan rute-rute navigasi.
===Navigation by the stars===
[[File:Mau-star-compass.png|thumb|A photograph of a recreation of the star compass of [[Mau Piailug]] depicted with shells on sand, with [[Satawalese]] (See [[Trukic languages]]) text labels, as described and translated by the [[Polynesian Voyaging Society]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://pvs.kcc.hawaii.edu/ike/hookele/star_compasses.html |archive-url=https://www.webcitation.org/5rkR1hSvX?url=http://pvs.kcc.hawaii.edu/ike/hookele/star_compasses.html |archive-date=5 August 2010 |title=Star Compasses |publisher=Polynesian Voyaging Society |deadurl=yes |df=dmy-all }}</ref> Shown here north-up. See annotations on Commons.]] ▼For navigators near the equator [[celestial navigation]] is simplified since the whole [[celestial sphere]] is exposed. Any star that passes the [[zenith]] (overhead) is on the [[celestial equator]], the basis of the [[equatorial coordinate system]]. Each star has a specific [[declination]], and when they rise or set, they give a [[bearing (navigation)|bearing]] for navigation. Stars are learned by compass point, making a star compass (star compasses list ~150 stars, in some systems<ref>[[Harold Gatty]] (1958). ''[https://books.google.com/books?id=r7XDAgAAQBAJ&pg=PA45#v=onepage&q&f=false Nature Is Your Guide]'', p. 45</ref>). A simplified compass might list only a couple of dozen stars.<ref>[http://archive.hokulea.com/ike/hookele/star_compasses.html Star Compass diagrams with translations]</ref> For example, in the [[Caroline Islands]] [[Mau Piailug]] taught natural navigation using a [[List of selected stars for navigation|star compass]] diagrammed here.

== Teknik-teknik navigasi ==
The Polynesians also took measurements of stellar elevation to determine their latitude. The latitudes of specific islands were also known, and the technique of "sailing down the latitude" was used.
Navigasi sangat bergantung pada pengamatan teratur serta hafalan; di mana Anda harus selalu waspada terhadap lingkungan Anda. Anda tidak bisa hanya melihat bintang-bintang dan tahu di mana Anda berada. Anda hanya dapat mengetahui di mana Anda berada jika Anda dapat menghafal dari mana Anda berlayar. Matahari adalah pemandu utama bagi para pelayar karena mereka dapat mengikuti titik-titik persisnya ketika naik dan terbenam; kemudian, pada waktu malam mereka akan beralih dengan menaiknya bintang-bintang dan menetapkan titik-titik. Dengan pengamatan terus-menerus, hadirnya pengetahuan untuk mengetahui dan mengingat kecepatan kano Anda (ketika kecepatannya melaju dan melambat), ke arah mana Anda menghadapinya, dan pada waktu berapa dari siang atau malam. Pada zaman dahulu, mereka tidak memiliki jam, kompas atau speedometer, tetapi mereka memiliki pikiran dan kemampuan untuk menghafal sekelilingnya. Ketika tidak ada bintang karena malam yang mendung atau selama tengah hari, para navigator ini akan menggunakan angin dan gelombang untuk memandu mereka.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Thompson|first1=Nainoa|title=On Wayfinding|url=http://archive.hokulea.com/ike/hookele/on_wayfinding.html|site= Polynesian Voyaging Society|accessdate=11 April 2018}}</ref> Para navigator Polinesia menggunakan berbagai macam teknik dengan menggunakan bintang-bintang, pergerakan arus laut dan pola-pola gelombang, pola interferensi udara dan laut yang disebabkan oleh pulau-pulau dan [[atoll]], serta burung-burung yang beterbangan, angin dan cuaca.<ref name="Gatty_1958">{{harvnb|Gatty|1958}}.</ref>
===Swell Pengamatan burung ===
Burung laut tertentu seperti [[White tern]] dan Noddy tern memakan ikan di pagi hari dan kembali beristirahat di darat di malam hari. Para navigator menggunakan burung-burung ini untuk membimbing mereka mendarat dengan mengikuti ke mana burung-burung tersebut terbang dari pagi, sehingga membimbing mereka ke arah daratan. Kebiasaan burung berubah selama musim bersarang yang merupakan hal lain yang harus diingat oleh para navigator ketika melakukan perjalanan. Secara umum, jika seorang navigator dapat membawa sekelompok besar burung laut, hal tersebut merupakan tanda yang jauh lebih dapat diandalkan untuk mendarat dibandingkan hanya mengikuti satu, dua atau sekelompok kecil burung-burung.<ref name="Lewis 1972">{{cite book|last1=Lewis|first1=David|title=We, the Navigators|url=https://archive.org/details/wenavigatorsanci0000lewi_a1c4|date=1972|publisher=University of Hawaii Press|location=HI|isbn=9780824802295}}</ref>
The Polynesians also use wave and swell formations to navigate. Many of the habitable areas of the Pacific Ocean are groups of islands (or atolls) in chains hundreds of kilometers long. Island chains have predictable effects on waves and on currents. Navigators who lived within a group of islands would learn the effect various islands had on their shape, direction, and motion and would have been able to correct their path in accordance with the changes they perceived. When they arrived in the vicinity of a chain of islands they were unfamiliar with, they may have been able to transfer their experience and deduce that they were nearing a group of islands. Once they had arrived fairly close to a destination island, they would have been able to pinpoint its location by sightings of land-based birds, certain cloud formations, as well as the reflections shallow water made on the undersides of clouds. It is thought that the Polynesian navigators may have measured the time it took to sail between islands in "canoe-days" or a similar type of expression.<ref name="Gatty_1958" />
[[Harold Gatty]] menyarankan bahwa pelayaran Polinesia jarak jauh mengikuti jalur musiman [[migrasi burung]]. Di dalam "The Raft Book",<ref>"[http://blog.library.si.edu/tag/harold-gatty/ Be Your Own Navigator] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160306162405/http://blog.library.si.edu/tag/harold-gatty/ |date=2016-03-06 }}," ''Smithsonian Libraries Unbound'', 11 February 2016.</ref> yaitu sebuah pedoman bertahan hidup yang ditulis bagi angkatan militer AS selama Perang Dunia II, Gatty menguraikan berbagai teknik-teknik serikat navigasi Polinesia atau pilot yang mengalami kecelakaan di laut, supaya dapat menggunakannya sehingga menemukan jalan ke arah daratan. Beberapa referensi di dalam tradisi lisan mereka tentang burung-burung yang beterbangan, mengatakan bahwa terdapat tanda-tanda dengan kisaran di darat yang menunjuk ke pulau-pulau yang jauh sejalan dengan [[West Pacific Flyway|Jalur Terabang Pasifik Barat]]. Sebuah perjalanan dari Tahiti, Tuamotus atau Kepulauan Cook ke Selandia Baru telah mengikuti migrasi [[kukuk berekor panjang]] (''Eudynamys taitensis'') seperti halnya pelayaran dari Tahiti ke Hawai{{okina}} saya bertepatan dengan jejak [[Plover emas pasific]] (''Pluvialis fulva'') dan [[curlew keriting]] (''Numenius tahitiensis''). Diyakini pula bahwa orang-orang Polinesia menggunakan burung-burung yang mengamati pantai seperti halnya yang dilakukan oleh para pelaut. Satu teori menyebutkan bahwa mereka akan mengambil [[burung pergata]] (''Fregata'') bersama dengan mereka. Burung-burung ini menolak mendarat di air karena bulu mereka akan menjadi basah kuyup yang membuat mereka tidak dapat terbang. Ketika para pelayar mengira mereka dekat dengan tanah mereka mungkin telah melepaskan burung tersebut, yang kemudian terbang ke arah daratan atau kembali lagi ke arah kano.<ref name="Gatty_1958" />

Posisi bintang-bintang membantu memandu orang Polinesia melalui rute-rute pelayaran mereka. Bintang-bintang; sebagai lawan planet mampu mempertahankan posisi yang stabil sepanjang tahun. Satu-satunya hal yang berubah adalah waktu bintang menaik yang berubah secara musiman. Pelancong Polinesia akan mengikuti bintang di dekat cakrawala; apakah mereka baru saja naik atau mengatur serta menggunakan bintang-bintang khusus ini sebagai pemandu. Bintang-bintang ini digunakan untuk mengatur arah kano mereka hingga titik ketika bintang-bintang menaik terlalu tinggi, serta tidak lagi mudah diikuti. Setelah bintang yang mereka gunakan untuk memandu mereka naik terlalu tinggi, mereka menggunakan bintang berikutnya yang menaik dari bintang-bintang sebelumnya, yaitu titik yang tepat untuk memandu mereka selanjutnya. Garis lintang kano dan jalur yang diikuti menentukan berapa banyak bintang yang diperlukan para navigator untuk membawanya sampai tujuan.<ref name = "Lewis 1972" />

Banyak wilayah yang dapat dihuni di Samudra Pasifik merupakan kelompok pulau (atau atol) dalam rantai dengan panjang ratusan kilometer. Rantai-rantai pulau memiliki efek yang dapat diprediksi terhadap gelombang dan arus. Navigator yang tinggal di dalam kelompok pulau akan mempelajari pengaruh berbagai pulau terhadap bentuk, arah, dan gerak mereka dan akan mampu memperbaiki jalan mereka sesuai dengan perubahan yang mereka rasakan. Ketika mereka tiba di sekitar rantai pulau yang tidak mereka kenal, mereka mungkin dapat mengalihkan pengalaman mereka dan menyimpulkan bahwa mereka mendekati sekelompok pulau. Begitu mereka tiba cukup dekat dengan pulau tujuan, mereka akan mampu menentukan lokasinya dengan melihat burung-burung yang mendekati daratan, formasi awan tertentu, serta refleksi air dangkal yang dibuat di bagian bawah awan. Para navigator Polinesia diperkirakan telah mengukur jumlah waktu yang diperlukan untuk berlayar di antara pulau-pulau di dalam "hari-hari kano" atau jenis ekspresi serupa.<ref name="Gatty_1958" />
Energi yang ditransfer dari angin ke laut merupakan gelombang angin. Gelombang ini diciptakan ketika energi bergerak menjauh dari area sumber (seperti riak) yang dikenal sebagai gelombang besar. Ketika angin kuat di daerah sumber, yang ombaknya lebih besar. Semakin lama angin berhembus, semakin lama gelombang itu bertahan. Karena gelombang samudera dapat tetap konsisten selama berhari-hari, para navigator mengandalkannya untuk membawa kano mereka dalam garis lurus dari satu rumah pada kompas bintang ke sebuah rumah dengan nama yang sama di sisi lain cakrawala. Navigator tidak selalu bisa melihat bintang; karena ini, mereka bergantung pada gelombang lautan. Pola gelombang merupakan metode navigasi yang lebih andal daripada gelombang sebenarnya yang ditentukan oleh angin lokal. Gelombang tersebut bergerak dalam arah lurus yang membuatnya lebih mudah bagi navigator untuk menentukan apakah kano tersebut sedang menuju ke arah yang benar.<ref>{{cite book|last1=Gooley|first1=Tristan|title=How to Read Water: Clues, Signs & Patterns from Puddles to the Sea|year=2016|publisher=Hodder & Stoughton|location=NY|isbn=9781473615205}}</ref>

In the mid-20th century, [[Thor Heyerdahl]] proposed a new theory of Polynesian origins (one which did not win general acceptance), arguing that the Polynesians had migrated from South America on [[balsa]]-log boats.<ref name="Sharp_1963_122128">{{harvnb|Sharp|1963|pp=122–128}}.</ref><ref name="Finney_1963_5" /> ▼

The presence in the [[Cook Islands]] of [[Ipomoea batatas|sweet potato]] that is a plant native to the Americas (called ''kūmara'' in [[Māori language|Māori]]), which have been radiocarbon-dated to 1000 CE, has been cited as evidence that Americans could have traveled to Oceania. The current thinking is that sweet potato was brought to central Polynesia circa 700 CE and spread across Polynesia from there, possibly by Polynesians who had traveled to South America and back.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Van Tilburg |first=Jo Anne |year=1994 |title=Easter Island: Archaeology, Ecology and Culture |location=Washington, DC |publisher=Smithsonian Institution Press |isbn= }}</ref> An alternative explanation posits [[biological dispersal]]; plants and/or seeds could float across the Pacific without any human contact.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.climate.uvic.ca/people/alvaro/SPotato.pdf |title=Modeling the prehistoric arrival of the sweet potato in Polynesia |author=Montenegro, A. |display-authors=etal |date= |work=Journal of Archaeological Science |publisher=University of Victoria |accessdate=6 September 2011 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110628030307/http://climate.uvic.ca/people/alvaro/SPotato.pdf |archivedate=28 June 2011 |df=dmy-all }}</ref> ▼[[Berkas:Antarctica Map.png|350px|jmpl|ka|Antarktika dan pulau-pulau sekitarnya, menunjukkan Kepulauan Auckland yang tepat berada di atas (selatan) Selandia Baru, di bagian tengah bawah gambar]]

A 2007 study published in the ''[[Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences]]'' examined [[chicken]] bones at [[El Arenal, Chile|El Arenal]] near the [[Arauco Peninsula]], [[Arauco Province]], [[Chile]]. The results suggested Oceania-to-America contact. Chickens originated in southern Asia and the ''Araucana'' breed of Chile was thought to have been brought by Spaniards around 1500. However, the bones found in Chile were radiocarbon-dated to between 1304 and 1424, well before the documented arrival of the Spanish. DNA sequences taken were exact matches to those of chickens from the same period in [[American Samoa]] and [[Tonga]], both over 5000 miles (8000 kilometers) away from Chile. The genetic sequences were also similar to those found in [[Hawaii|Hawai{{okina}}i]] and [[Easter Island]], the closest island at only 2500 miles (4000 kilometers), and unlike any breed of European chicken.<ref>{{Citation | url = http://www.livescience.com/history/070604_polynesian_chicken.html | title = Chicken Bones Suggest Polynesians Found Americas Before Columbus | journal = Live Science | date = 4 June 2007 | accessdate = 5 June 2007 | last = Whipps | first = Heather | postscript = . }}</ref><ref name=lat>{{cite news |url=http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/la-sci-chickens5jun05,1,4338408.story?coll=la-headlines-nation |title=Polynesians beat Spaniards to South America, study shows |first=Thomas H., II |last=Maugh |work=[[Los Angeles Times]] |date=5 June 2007}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal |last=Storey |first=A.

The first settlers of the [[Hawaiian Islands]] are thought to have sailed from the [[Marquesas Islands]] using Polynesian navigation methods.{{sfn|Bellwood|1987|pp=39–65}} To test this theory, the Hawaiian [[Polynesian Voyaging Society]] was established in 1973. The group built a replica of an ancient double-hulled canoe called the [[Hokulea|Hōkūle'a]], whose crew successfully navigated the Pacific Ocean from [[Hawaii|Hawai{{okina}}i]] to [[Tahiti]] in 1976 without instruments. In 1980, a Hawaiian named [[Nainoa Thompson]] invented a new method of [[wayfinding|non-instrument navigation]] (called the "modern Hawaiian wayfinding system"), enabling him to complete the voyage from Hawai{{okina}}i to [[Tahiti]] and back. In 1987, a [[Māori people|Māori]] named Matahi Whakataka (Greg Brightwell) and his mentor Francis Cowan sailed from Tahiti to [[Aotearoa]] without instruments.
Pengetahuan tentang metode navigasi tradisional Polinesia secara luas hilang setelah adanya kontak dengan kolonialisme orang-orang Eropa. Hal ini menyebabkan perdebatan atas alasan kehadiran Polinesia di daerah Pasifik yang terisolir dan tercerai-berai. Menurut [[Andrew Sharp (sejarawan)|Andrew Sharp]], seorang penjelajah Kapten [[James Cook]], yang sudah akrab dengan nama [[Charles de Brosses]] tentang kelompok besar penduduk pulau Pasifik yang digerakkan di jalur badai dan berakhir ratusan mil jauhnya tanpa tahu di mana mereka, ditemukan dalam perjalanan salah satu pelayaran mandiri dengan kelompok terbuang Tahitians yang telah hilang di laut dalam badai dengan angin yang bertiup 1000 mil jauhnya ke pulau [[Atiu]]. Cook menulis bahwa insiden ini "akan berfungsi untuk menjelaskan, lebih baik daripada ribuan dugaan spekulatif, tentang bagaimana bagian yang terpisah dari bumi, dan, khususnya, bagaimana Laut Selatan, mungkin telah dihuni".<ref name="Sharp_1963_16">{{harvnb|Sharp|1963|p=16}}.</ref>
In New Zealand, a leading Māori navigator and ship builder is [[Hector Busby]] who was also inspired and influenced by Nainoa Thompson and Hokulea's voyage there in 1985.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.maoriart.org.nz/hekenukumai-hector-busby-p-149.html |title=Profile: Hekenukumai (Hector) Busby |work=[[Toi Māori Aotearoa]] |accessdate=12 October 2014 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://archive.is/20141011205028/http://www.maoriart.org.nz/hekenukumai-hector-busby-p-149.html |archivedate=11 October 2014 |df=dmy-all }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.wakatapu.com/ | title=Waka Tapu Canoes | publisher=[[NZMACI]] & Taitokerau Tarai Waka | accessdate=12 October 2014}}</ref>
Di akhir abad ke-19 hingga awal abad ke-20, pandangan umum tentang navigasi Polinesia lebih disukai, dengan pandangan yang sangat romantis tentang pelayaran, kano, dan keahlian navigasi mereka. Akhir abad ke-19 dan awal abad ke-20 penulis seperti [[Abraham Fornander]] dan [[Percy Smith (ethnologis)|Percy Smith]] menceritakan tentang Polinesia heroik yang bermigrasi dalam armada terkoordinasi besar dari Asia jauh ke Polinesia masa kini.<ref name="Finney_1963_5">{{harvnb|Finney|1963|p=5}}.</ref>

Knowledge of the traditional Polynesian methods of navigation was widely lost after contact with and colonization by Europeans. This caused debates over the reasons for the presence of the Polynesians in such isolated and scattered parts of the Pacific. According to [[Andrew Sharp (historian)|Andrew Sharp]], the explorer Captain [[James Cook]], already familiar with [[Charles de Brosses]]'s accounts of large groups of Pacific islanders who were driven off course in storms and ended up hundreds of miles away with no idea where they were, encountered in the course of one of his own voyages a castaway group of Tahitians who had become lost at sea in a gale and blown 1000 miles away to the island of [[Atiu]]. Cook wrote that this incident "will serve to explain, better than the thousand conjectures of speculative reasoners, how the detached parts of the earth, and, in particular, how the South Seas, may have been peopled".<ref name="Sharp_1963_16">{{harvnb|Sharp|1963|p=16}}.</ref>
Pandangan lain juga disampaikan oleh Andrew Sharp yang menantang hipotesis "visi kepahlawanan", dengan menegaskan bahwa keahlian maritim Polinesia sangat terbatas di bidang eksplorasi dan sebagai hasilnya penyelesaian Polinesia merupakan hasil dari keberuntungan, kenampakan pulau acak, dan persinggahan, bukan sebagai penjelajahan terorganisir atas kolonisasi. Setelah itu pengetahuan lisan yang diwariskan dari generasi ke generasi memungkinkan penguasaan penjelajahan akhir antara lokasi yang diketahui.<ref name="Sharp_1963">{{harvnb|Sharp|1963}}.</ref> Penilaian ulang Sharp menyebabkan sejumlah besar kontroversi dan menyebabkan kebuntuan antara pandangan romantis dan skeptis.<ref name="Finney_1963_5" />
By the late 19th century to the early 20th century, a more generous view of Polynesian navigation had come into favor, creating a much romanticized view of their seamanship, canoes, and navigational expertise. Late 19th and early 20th centuries writers such as [[Abraham Fornander]] and [[Percy Smith (ethnologist)|Percy Smith]] told of heroic Polynesians migrating in great coordinated fleets from Asia far and wide into present-day Polynesia.<ref name="Finney_1963_5">{{harvnb|Finney|1963|p=5}}.</ref>
[[ FileBerkas:Double hulled vaka, Rarotonga 2010.jpg| thumbjmpl| rightka|250px| DoubledMenggandakan hulledlambung kapal ''vaka'' in [[Rarotonga]], 2010.]] ▼Another view was presented by Andrew Sharp who challenged the "heroic vision" hypothesis, asserting instead that Polynesian maritime expertise was severely limited in the field of exploration and that as a result the settlement of Polynesia had been the result of luck, random island sightings, and drifting, rather than as organized voyages of colonization. Thereafter the oral knowledge passed down for generations allowed for eventual mastery of traveling between known locations.<ref name="Sharp_1963">{{harvnb|Sharp|1963}}.</ref> Sharp's reassessment caused a huge amount of controversy and led to a stalemate between the romantic and the skeptical views.<ref name="Finney_1963_5" />
Pada pertengahan hingga akhir tahun 1960-an; merupakan masa pendekatan baru. Antropolog [[David Henry Lewis|David Lewis]] yang berlayar dengan katamaran dari Tahiti ke Selandia Baru menggunakan [[navigasi bintang]] tanpa instrumen apapun.<ref name="Lewis_1976">{{harvnb|Lewis|1976}}.</ref> Antropolog dan sejarawan [[Ben Finney]] membangun ''Nalehia'', yaitu sebuah replika dengan panjang 40 kaki dari [[Kano outrigger canoe|Kano ganda]]. Finney menguji kano dalam serangkaian percobaan berlayar serta mendayung di perairan Hawaii. Pada saat yang sama, penelitian etnografi di Kepulauan Caroline di [[Mikronesia]] mengungkap fakta bahwa metode navigasi bintang tradisional masih sangat banyak digunakan sehari-hari di sana. Bangunan dan pengujian kano-kano proa (''[[Wa (watercraft)|wa]]'') terinspirasi oleh desain tradisional, dengan memanfaatkan pengetahuan dari ahli Mikronesia, di mana pelayarannya menggunakan navigasi bintang, yang memungkinkan adanya kesimpulan praktis tentang kelayakan kondisi suatu lautan serta kemampuan menggunakan kano tradisional Polinesia yang membutuhkan pemahaman lebih baik tentang metode navigasi yang mungkin digunakan oleh orang-orang Polinesia serta bagaimana mereka, sebagai manusia, menyesuaikan diri dengan pelayaran di lautan.<ref name="Finney_1963_69">{{harvnb|Finney|1963|pp=6–9}}.</ref> Kreasi ulang terbaru dari pelayaran Polinesia telah menggunakan metode yang sebagian besar didasarkan pada metode Mikronesia serta pengajaran seorang navigator Mikronesia, [[Mau Piailug]].<ref>See also: [[Masyarakat Pelayaran Polynesia]], [[Hokulea]].</ref>

Sesuai dengan tradisi lisan Polinesia, geografi jalur navigasi Polinesia dikatakan menyerupai kualitas geometris gurita dengan kepala berpusat pada [[Ra'iātea]] (Polinesia Prancis) dan tentakel yang tersebar di seluruh Pasifik.<ref>E. Tetahiotupa, ''Au gré des vents et des courants'' ([[Éditions des Mers Australes]]) 2009, https://www.tahiti-infos.com/Pourquoi-le-Triangle-polynesien-est-une-pieuvre_a135121.html</ref> Dalam tradisi lisan gurita ini dikenal dengan berbagai nama seperti [[Taumata-Fe'e-Fa'atupu-Hau]] (Gurita Raksasa atas Kesejahteraan), [[Tumu-Ra'i-Fenua]] (Awal-Surga-dan-Bumi) dan [[Te Wheke-a-Muturangi]] (Gurita dari [[Muturangi]]).
By the mid-to-late 1960s it was time for a new hands-on approach. Anthropologist [[David Henry Lewis|David Lewis]] sailed his catamaran from Tahiti to New Zealand using [[stellar navigation]] without instruments.<ref name="Lewis_1976">{{harvnb|Lewis|1976}}.</ref> Anthropologist and historian [[Ben Finney]] built ''Nalehia'', a {{convert|40|ft|m|adj=on}} replica of a Hawaiian [[Outrigger canoe|double canoe]]. Finney tested the canoe in a series of sailing and paddling experiments in Hawaiian waters. At the same time, ethnographic research in the Caroline Islands in [[Micronesia]] brought to light the fact that traditional stellar navigational methods were still very much in everyday use there. The building and testing of proa canoes (''[[Wa (watercraft)|wa]]'') inspired by traditional designs, the harnessing of knowledge from skilled Micronesians, as well as voyages using stellar navigation, allowed practical conclusions about the seaworthiness and handling capabilities of traditional Polynesian canoes and allowed a better understanding of the navigational methods that were likely to have been used by the Polynesians and of how they, as people, were adapted to seafaring.<ref name="Finney_1963_69">{{harvnb|Finney|1963|pp=6–9}}.</ref> Recent re-creations of Polynesian voyaging have used methods based largely on Micronesian methods and the teachings of a Micronesian navigator, [[Mau Piailug]].<ref>See also: [[Polynesian Voyaging Society]], [[Hokulea]].</ref>
