An Account of the Polynesian Race; Volume I

More about the book

Focusing on the origins of the Polynesian people, this volume by Abraham Fornander explores their migration patterns, languages, and mythology. Fornander theorizes that Polynesians, identified as Aryans, arrived in the Pacific via Fiji in the early centuries AD. The book includes analyses of place names, cardinal points, and mythological references that support his conclusions. It serves as a valuable resource for those interested in Polynesian culture, language, and history, and is presented in a modern, accessible edition with a new biography of the author.
