There is also evidence that pacific Islanders made at least two trips to the Americas using rafts.

I believe generic testing shows pacific Islander and early Asian DNA mixing.

Stefan Milo on YouTube has a few videos looking into different theories.

The Pacific Islanders didn’t get to Tahiti and Hawaii until 1000AD.
