‘”We found identical-by-descent segments of Native American ancestry across several Polynesian islands,” Ioannidis said. “It was conclusive evidence that there was a single shared contact event.” In other words, Polynesians and Native Americans met at one point in history, and during that time people from the two cultures produced children with both Native American and Polynesian DNA. ‘
This means that if the Polynesians visited Columbia, then they took women back with them or stayed long enough to have children by Columbians and then took the children back to Polynesia.
OTOH, if the Columbians visited Polynesia, no round trip is required to explain these data.
So Elizabeth Warren can tell Biden....Hey, Joey, choose me for VP and get the only affirmative action three-for in town: part Native American, part Polynesian Islander and woman-—hear me roar.
Biden: Can I go back into my basement now? She’s giving me a headache.
