Answer:

Polynesia

Explanation:

Regardless of how long it took the first settlers of the west to reach Polynesia, the road that has been traced with a reasonable degree of confidence. The northernmost point, Hawaii, was placed around 500 AD, followed by New Zealand in the year 1000. The exact date when the Polynesians discovered Easter Island is still discussed. Some archaeological evidence suggests that the island was first inhabited between 300 and 500 AD, but more recently the date of 800 AD has come in favor. Other scientists believe that the island was not inhabited until the end of 1200.

Why are summers generally warmer than winters?

andrew-mc [135]

Because the earth's axis is tilted. It is all about the tilt of the Earth's axis.

During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out as much, thus increasing the amount of energy hitting any given spot. Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures.

During the winter, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a shallow angle. These rays are more spread out, which minimizes the amount of energy that hits any given spot. Also, the long nights and short days prevent the Earth from warming up. That's why we have winter.

I hope this helped!

Thank you,
