Summary[edit]

Description

An equirectangular 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.

  • From Taiwan through Melanesia to Polynesia, and earlier migration to Australia and New Guinea:
