Summary

Description
Català: Una projecció ortogràfica de la Polinèsia
English: An orthographic projection of Polynesia, created from the same data as File:Worldmap_location_NED_50m.svg with gringer's perlshaper script. Inkscape was used to add colour, clip the land, and add migration arrows.

Own work. Dates and arrows are based on Chambers (2008), with additional colouring and styling guided by discussion with Geoff Chambers 2008-2011 as part of my PhD project:

Migration arrows are supported by the following sources:

  • From Taiwan through Melanesia to Polynesia, and earlier migration to Australia and New Guinea:
  • Colonisation of East Polynesia, and dispersal to more remote islands (including Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand):
    • Janet M. Wilmshurst, Terry L. Hunt, Carl P. Lipo, and Atholl J. Anderson (2011). High-precision radiocarbon dating shows recent and rapid initial human colonization of East Polynesia, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, February 1, 2011, vol. 108 no. 5, 1815-1820. doi:10.1073/pnas.1015876108

Please attribute this work to David Eccles (gringer). This map, created by David Eccles (Rangitāne o Wairau) is based on genetic, archaeological, and radiocarbon dating data and traces the migration routes of the Polynesian population, including the discovery of New Zealand by Māori. An earlier version of the map is included in the introduction of David's [PhD thesis](https://doi.org/10.26686/wgtn.16993075).

Translate this file This SVG file contains embedded text that can be translated into your language, using any capable SVG editor, text editor or the SVG Translate tool. For more information see: About translating SVG files.
This file is translated using SVG <switch> elements. All translations are stored in the same file! Learn more.

For most Wikipedia projects, you can embed the file normally (without a lang parameter). The Wikipedia will use its language if the SVG file supports that language. For example, the German Wikipedia will use German if the SVG file has German. To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:Polynesian Migration.svg|lang=en]] for the English version. Do not specify a lang parameter if it is not needed. The parameter may prevent the use of a subsequent translation.

To translate the text into your language, you can use the SVG Translate tool. Alternatively, you can download the file to your computer, add your translations using whatever software you're familiar with, and re-upload it with the same name. You will find help in Graphics Lab if you're not sure how to do this.
