The False History of a Polynesian Race
You may have heard that Easter Island was once a lush paradise until the native Polynesians cut down all the trees and brought their people to near extinction by exploiting the environment.
Yet, a closer look at history tells a different story. The following document gives an account of those early explorers who first made contact with the people of Rapa Nui (Easter Island). The island in its prime supported between 2000 and 4000 inhabitants and at European contact this was about the population typically recorded.
