Along these lines let's not forget the Kon Tiki expedition. In 1947 Heyerdahl & crew wanted to show if, using a simple raft, South Americans could have reached Polynesia in the era prior to Columbus in 1492. Modern genetic analysis now seems to back up his idea…
The answer was suggested back in 1947 by Thor Heyerdahl's Kon-tiki expedition which demonstrated how it was possible to sail the 4,000 miles or more across the Pacific from South America to the Polynesian Islands in a simple raft.
Sounds like part of Thor Heyerdahl's larger theory of vikings everywhere. Part of the story was folks settling the Pacific from South America, recreated in the Kon-Tiki expedition. Heyerdahl believed that people from South America could have reached Polynesia during pre-Columbian times. His aim in mounting the Kon-Tiki expedition was to show, by using only the materials and technologies…
I find it incredible that their drifting sent them in the same general direction that Thor Heyerdahl [0] suspected (and verified in the Kon-Tiki expedition) that one would go without any extra power of their own. The fact that a man who didn't even plan for the trip (or have any provisions) made it out alive even though he was virtually alone for the entire…

沿着这个思路，咱们可别忘了康提基号（Kon Tiki）远征。1947 年，海尔达尔和船员们想证明：在 1492 年哥伦布发现新大陆之前的时代，南美洲人是否只凭一艘简陋的木筏就能抵达波利尼西亚。现代基因分析现在似乎支持了他的猜想……

早在 1947 年，托尔·海尔达尔的康提基号远征就给出了答案，它证明了光凭一艘简陋的木筏，横跨 4000 多英里太平洋从南美洲航行到波利尼西亚群岛是完全可行的。

听起来像是托尔·海尔达尔那个宏大的“维京人无处不在”理论的一部分。其中一部分故事是人们从南美洲迁徙定居太平洋，并在康提基号远征中重演了这一过程。海尔达尔认为，前哥伦布时期的人类完全可能从南美洲抵达波利尼西亚。他组织康提基号远征的目的，就是想证明只靠当时的材料和技术……

我觉得不可思议的是，他们随波漂流的大致方向，居然正好和托尔·海尔达尔 [0] 推测（并在康提基号远征中验证）的一模一样——即在没有任何自身动力的情况下人会被带往何处。事实上，一个甚至压根没计划这趟旅行（也没备任何物资）的人居然能活下来，尽管他全程几乎都是孤身一人……
