The island of Rapa Nui (also known as Easter Island), there are stone walls which were built and without the aid of mortar. The stones fit so precisely together than there are no visible gaps. The workmanship of these stone walls very closely resembles that of similar walls found in Peru.[1] There is now DNA evidence that at least some of the ancestry of Easter Islanders definitely came from South America.[2] Perhaps they brought some of their technological know-how with them, which may explain the similarity in the walls. Another connection between Polynesia and South America came to light in 2007 when the bones of a chicken native to Polynesia were found in an archaeological dig in El Arenal. The bones pre-date the arrival of the Spaniards by approximately 100 years.[3] A variety of cotton in Hawaii has been genetically linked to the most common variety of cotton grown in Mexico.[4]
