The Real Life Wayfinders: The Untold Story Of Polynesian Voyagers
The Polynesian Triangle, stretching between Hawaii, New Zealand, and Easter Island, was explored long before Western explorers like James Cook. Polynesians had already settled across the vast ocean, leaving behind clues of their mastery of seafaring. Modern reconstructions of Polynesian canoes, like the Hōkūleʻa, were used to understand how early Polynesians navigated vast distances. Sailing "against the wind" was a survival strategy, allowing them to return safely if no land was found, which was essential for the exploration of remote regions like New Zealand and Hawaii.
