Until I investigated carefully, I did not know that Vanuatuans set sail further out in the Pacific Ocean again, heading eventually for the Easter Islands

This article is better-written in part because
it tells who Mads Ravn is in his academic
capacity and what his role is for the team.
What does the reader think of the article?
Are there too many of Ravn's personal
opinions that he expresses while the views
of other archaeologists are not mentioned
concerning the Vanuatuans up to 3000 years ago.

Your interest seems to be about Norwegians lately. Kind of a slim
basis for not knowing anything about Vanuatu, isn't it? It think the
article is the right length and that you haven't got a clue about the
Pacific.

That's your bunk; I am judging from the exact words
you write, which you write carelessly.

Yet, Mads Ravn has a clue because of his expertise in
migration and colonising over great distances.

You mean he is a foreigner who is responsible for the
digital documentation of the project?
You really are clueless.
Jack Linthicum
I wonder how many Easter Islands there are? I count one.
Peter Alaca
It is much easier to colonize imaginary islands.
Jack Linthicum
Better yet, learn more before you "investigare carefully"

No; you are an idiotic guesser here.

Peter Alaca the Irritant should get off SA now but start
fresh next year so that he actually deals with archaeology
as an academic discipline; Peter the Irritant has lost his
title of Mr. Archaeology, perhaps forever.

What an excellent show of ignorance and bluff again!
Ravn himself wrote about the Teouma excavation in Vanuatu:
"I am responsible for digital data documentation there
(2008 and 2009)."
Nothing about 'expertise in migration and colonising over
great distances'.

Your posts are as low and clueless as ever.

No news here; Ross Clark said somewhat the same thing.

You mean you are clueless about Ravn's expertise
in migration and colonising over great distances? I am
surprised, Mr. non-Archaeology.

Namedropping again. Ross Clark did not appear in this thread.

Strawman argument.
You never heard of Ravn before that article
and you never read more.

You are the one following. You are unable to ignore

If you are counting the islands are Rapa Nui (the main island)
Moto Orongo and Moto Nui are uninhabited ...
Peter Alaca
If you call every piece of rock surrounded by water an island.

Works for me

When you consider the topology of bodies on a spherical surface - an
island is a body of water surrounded by land.

I tried it with a footbal, but no, the water wont stick.
