They were the excellent sailors is the reason that enabled the Lapita people to migrate the islands.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Lapita people belonged to Taiwan and other parts of East Asia. They were the first people to move Oceania. Archaeologists considered that Lapita people are the ancestors of Polynesia, Micronesia and Melanesia.
Lapita people are recognised for their pottery. They are excellent sailors as well as navigators who can navigate the sea even during its worse conditions.
The Lapita culture originates from Taiwan and other places. Taiwan is placed in East Asia, well north of the Philippines. The Lapita people had no instruments, no compasses, no sextants, they were great, natural sailors who navigated by looking at the sky and the stars. Otherwise, they wouldn´t have been able to expand to much of Polynesia.
