Migration from some poly island i don't know where i don't pay attention to that subject in kealakehe inter but what i do know is that our KING Kamehameha took most or all of the islands before he passed on and passed the cheifness on to his son.
Its kina scary knowing that the Hawaiians road on the boats in the middle of the sea with a few hundred or something like that to some were they didnt even know is their.
something that I would like to say is why do people ''in general'' have to hate/disrespect us Islander's I mean man this realy sucks.I'm sorry if you'r white but white people hate us

The language of Hawaii and archaeological discoveries indicate that Hawaii was settled by two distinct waves of Polynesian migration. Captain Cook himself knew that the original Polynesian discoverers had come from the South Pacific hundreds of years before his time. First, from the Marquesas, came a settlement as early as 600 or 700 AD, and then from the Society Islands, another migration about 1100 AD. Lacking instruments of navigation or charts or any kind, the Polynesians sailed into vast oceans. They staked their knowledge of the sky and its stars, the sea and its currents, the flight of birds and many other natural signs. They were superior seamen of their time.

One of my favorite books is HAWAII by James Michener. There is no real answer to your question, only theories. His theory was that the daughter of a Tahitian chief married a man against her father's wishes and he banished them and his family from the island. They set out in canoes not knowing where they were going and soon ran out of food and water. When they thought all hope was lost they saw a shark swimming around their canoes. They worshipped the shark and it led them to an island, which was Hawaii. That's only the first part of the book and it goes on to describe how the English, the Chinese, and the Japanese all ended up in the island. Excellent book. I highly recommend it.

They most likely came from Tahiti. The ancestral Tahitians were great navigators and boatsmen. They used stars to navigate.
But, archaeological evidence says there might have been another people on the island before tahitians. I think the Marquesans or something. They were most likely intergrated into the Tahitians.
So now hundreds of years later, tons of people move over there to the islands for a slice of robbed paradise (refering to when the US conned them out of their land.

Migration through boats.....
The ancestor of modern hawaiian are wanderers who migrate from island to island when there is shortage of food... thats probably the same for New Zeland, Borneo, Papua New Gunea and etc...
