Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There can be little doubt on linguistic evidence that East Polynesia was first settled from West Polynesia.

Her objective assessment of the material evidence indicates that there is no compelling reason to derive East Polynesian settlers from West Polynesia on archaeological grounds.
