| Publisher Description: A brief account of the possibility that Tangaroa, Polynesian God, was one of the White Gods of South America that Thor Heyerdahl discussed in his worksPOLYNESIANS HAVE CHINESE DNA FOUND IN THEIR MITOCHONDRIAMany of the research into Polynesian migration have discovered many 'secrets' into the DNA makeup of the people who populate the Pacific Islands. Tongans, Fijian, Maori, Samoans and other groups were found to have DNA that originate in Asia probably from mainland China.In Tonga, for example, a large number of the Tongan people have 'oriental features' especially the 'slanted eyes' and short stature with very fair skin.Thor Heyerdahl had also proposed that some of the Polynesians came from South America and proved that it is possible with his KonTiki Expedition. There are stories that an 'intelligent race of white people with long beards' came from South America and taught the people of the Pacific how to build stone structures, establish dynasties for administration, how to navigate by the stars and so on. |
