I am constantly surprised at how many early civilizations existed on islands. It is clear that man has been sailing the seas for a very, very long time.

Crete was an ancient civilization 5000 years ago. I was recently reading about the Islands of St. Kilda, (Hirta) which is literally in the middle of nowhere and almost inaccessible except on the calmest Summer days, yet has been inhabited for at least two thousand years. How did people get there so long ago with animals no less when even today it is difficult to get there?
