Did Polynesians Arrive From Peru? Thor Heyerdahl ´s Theory

"It will be in a strange situation for a while, I will enter it in the most natural way, but if I enter it correctly, I suddenly ask myself what is going on in this world I will be surprised. "Thor Heyerdahl said that this was what happened to him at the time. One day, the Polynesians thought that coming from South America instead of Asia, which was widely believed by scientists at the time, and next time he was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with the other five men and a parrot on the raft I tried to prove to. His assumption is true.

Kon-Tiki, the scorpion traversing the Pacific Ocean: "Kon-Tiki" is an amazing adventure record - run on a raft with 4,300 nautical miles on the Pacific Ocean. Biologist Thor Heyerdahl suspects Polynesian folklore and the South China Sea Islands suspect that they settled by thousands of ancient people led by a wonderful hero Kon-Tiki. He decided to prove his theory by copying the legendary voyage. On April 28, 1947, Heildahl and the other five adventurers sailed with a raft from Peru. They only saw the land after three pauses on the high seas, only in storms, whales, countless sharks - polyphasia in Polynesia

In the mid-20th century, Thor Heyerdahl proposed that the Polynesians moved from a large whale hunting shelter on the northwest coast of Canada to a Balsa wooden boat in South America. Many anthropologists have criticized Heildahl's theory, including Wade Davis in his book "Wayfinders". Davis says that Heyerdahl "ignores overwhelming words, ethnographic and ethnobotanical evidence today ascertained through genetic and archaeological data, indicating that he is clearly wrong" Said.

Thor Heyerdahl and his wife visited the Polynesian Islands for academic research in 1937. During life at Fatu Hiva, he saw the appearance of Polynesians and South Americans, the similarity of rituals and myths, and he said that he had had his ancestry from the east outside I heard the god old man. A big country was brought to the island. Horizon After he created his theory, he listened to many critics about the impossible Tiki journey. So he decided to travel on the same terms. A small team with Heyerdahl traveled to Peru where they built their boats and their journey began. After a fierce trip, they completed their mission. Heildahl wrote this moving story as a book, was filmed in 2012, and was nominated for Oscar Best Foreign Language Film Award.
