the trouble with this is that many of the easter island inhabitant were shipped to south america where they stayed for some time before returning. as well, many south americans visited easter island

the chances of the researcher getting a sample of pure easter island stock are not that great.

I was crazy about my Scholastic books edition of “Kon Tiki” when I was a 12 year old. Hooray for papyrus-weaving, ocean-navigating, Nordic adventurers!
