This chapter investigates the migration of Polynesians and their exceptional navigation skills, focusing on their journey to eastern Polynesian islands. It also explores the establishment of complex food webs and socio-ecological interactions that shaped distinct cultures across different islands.
In this episode, we continue our conversation with Professor Jennifer Dunne, the Vice President for Science at the Santa Fe Institute.
In this episode, Jennifer discusses her work to understand ‘human-centred interaction networks’ - how humans interact with non-human species in a range of ways, including for food - by examining Indigenous cultures around the world and historical migration to Polynesian islands.
