Examples of these objects called waka or va’a (“vah-ah”) evolved from designs of the Lapita culture. In 1975, a performance-accurate one of these things was built, named Hōkūleʻa (“HOH-koo-LAY-uh”), after the Hawaiian name for the star Arcturus. People using these objects were guided by stick charts bent to resemble swells. Indigenous Philippine examples of these objects called bangka were used for war and resemble other Austronesian outrigger designs. Thor Heyerdahl argued that South Americans could have traveled with a type of these objects similar to his Kon-Tiki. For 10 points, Polynesian wayfarers settled the Pacific by traveling on what objects? ■END■
