Lapita people and Polynesians were considered nomads before,
meaning no permanent settlement. These
people searched for places suitable for the type of living that they have. For example, that who settled in farmlands
and have animals to raise finds places suitable for farming. Others go near the
sea or rivers in order to go fishing.
They influence investments made to the country, the climate influences the crops grown and natural resources Brazil can utilise to make business with.
I wanna say true because they have technology today to help figure out where its located or will most likely happen. I might not be right though.
