Show transcript
Some of the earliest seaborne explorers were a group of people known as Polynesians.
A long time ago Polynesians spread across the Pacific Ocean using canoes that they built.
These canoes had to have a strong hull and sail to travel across the ocean.
The Polynesians navigated to new islands by watching the waves and the paths of sea creatures.
