      @@pustakarileks7404 it comes from the Austronesian root for 'to hear' but the meaning shifted over to time to 'to recite'. This is seen with other cognates in the Polynesian languages, compared to further Austronesian languages that kept the root meaning

  • @TheYuccaPlant
    @TheYuccaPlant Před rokem +7

    I think the most logical theory is that the rongorongo script is a descendant of indus valley script, the areas the people went through from there to easter island were not as lucky to be preserved like in mesopotamia and surrounding areas to find out about its whole history.
    I hate how researchers dismiss plausible theories because they either lack an empathic imagination or have racial prejudices to easily dismiss their potentially longer history than their own.
