Made in Taiwan

For Social Studies we watched a documentary of Oscar and his friend Nathaniel travelling
from island to island to find out where their ancestors originated/come from.
They have found so many things related to Taiwan that some people think that
they were originated from Asia.
Some of the interesting things that they came across on their trip was the Lapita pottery.
It was buried in Vanuatu and the designs and patterns look similar to Oscar’s Samoan tattoo.
In the Made In Taiwan video it shows evidence that Polynesians originated from
Asia because of the similar language and food they had.
The one thing that shocked me the most was the traditional Taiwanese dancing.
I think that their journey was successful because they got to explore and
find out where the ancestors migrated from. They also find out the similarities between
Maori, Samoa and Taiwan.
