      @MalamaMaLemba 3 года назад +1

      Aloha ahiahi,
      Not sure if I can be of help.
      My best advice would be learn African. Specifically Southeastern and Eastern African.
      My research has led me to South Africa, East Africa, and Madagascar Bantu populations, in regards to Pacific Islanders and African history.
      A mix of things:
      1) Bantu symbols found throughout Polynesia/ Micronesia.
      Such as the garment in a Marshallese museum with Bantu African recognized symbols on it.
      Or the popular Samoan tatau, that's a west african andinkra.
      2) Ōlelo Hawaii words that have been classified austronesian but are found throughout the Bantu language in Southeast and East Africa.
      Ex: kuokoa, kamau, Makua, Tonga, Malama, Makena, just to name a few.
      These are African Bantu/ swahili words. But also Austronesian Ōlelo Hawaii words at the same time.
      As far as Melanesia.....
      I've only stumbled across the Ni Vanuatu people having a water dance similar to the Biaka pygmy people in central Africa.
      There are also garments and traditional dance that is similar to Ghana traditional garment and dance. Found with Melanesians.
      Check out Bantu in Britannica encyclopedia. Not the popular "majority theory", but the unpopular unknown "minority theory".
      It speaks about the Bantu people arriving 2000 years ago and meeting a people who introduced us to a Malaysian crop we know as taro today.
      (Bantu people have different names for it today).
      Just to get you started.
      Lemme know what you find. I'm always searching for new info to add.

    Wow. Thank you for the valuable lesson in African history. This was never taught to us in school. Our curriculum in post independence Africa should focus on our history in depth, and less on European and outsiders history. I have learnt more about my continent through independent research, and by listening to scholars like yourself. I thank you so much for the valuable work you have done. Without you we would continue to live a life of lies and historical bankruptcy, as the systems in place are determined to ensure that we never learn the truth of our rich history. May the Almighty bless you and give you the courage and strength to continue in your priceless work. Shalom.
