'How could it be that Polynesians have roots in China? We don't look like Chinese.' And then I have to explain to them that, 'Yes, they don't look like the people living in southeast China today, but the people living there 6000 years ago, were completely different.'"

Anyone want to venture a guess who were these people living there 6,000 years ago?

This study is screaming for human genome information. I wouldn’t be surprised if similar, earlier Asian maritime cultures are found to have been the main source of North American populations instead of the so-called “Bearing Straight” land migration route, an hypothesis that creates more problems than it solves.

I think someone posted an article about a month ago that said DNA linked the islanders to Taiwanese people.
