What I think is fascinating is that there is conclusive evidence that Polynesians and Indigenous South Americans interbred.

But only once.

But only once.

I know, right? There are also a few bits of evidence for Polynesian contact in various places all up and down the coast, from Chile (Arucanian chickens) to California (Chumash canoes). But only a few.

Reaching the continent, I get.

Failing to reach the continent, I get.

But reaching the continent, making barely any (but not zero!) impact, and then noping out again? That's just weird!
