放射性碳代号显示,波利尼西亚人很可能在1440年至1470年之间抵达查塔姆岛,解决办法一直持续到1650年。 Radiocarbon dating shows Polynesians likely arrived on Chatham Island between 1440 and 1470 AD, with settlement lasting until 1650 AD.

源自查塔姆岛CH744站点的临时放射性碳表明,在1440年到1470年之间可能使用了瓦卡,有证据证明1450年到1650年之间有人类住区。 Interim radiocarbon dating from Site CH744 on Chatham Island indicates a waka was likely in use between 1440 and 1470 AD, with supporting evidence of human settlement between 1450 and 1650 AD. 调查结果包括1415年前的缝合线和已知的首具瓶壳遗骸,表明种植早在1400年前就开始了。 The findings include cordage dated before 1415 AD and the first known bottle gourd remains, suggesting cultivation began as early as 1400 AD. 这些结果支持了波利尼西亚在公元1500年之后的早期抵达和环境变化。 These results support early Polynesian arrival and environmental changes after 1500 AD. 最后报告预计于2026年2月提交。 The final report is expected by February 2026.
