Polynesian Voyaging Canoe|波利尼西亚文化数据集|航海历史数据集

[](https://sketchfab.com/blogs/community/sketchfab-weekly/?ref=sfb) The journey untraveled is the journey unexplored. For ancient Polynesians, that journey started with wood. Sailing across the Pacific meant the Polynesian people had to endure the forces of waves and the gravity of swells, and needed to posess the perseverance to sail onward, no matter what the seas held ahead. Resisting erosion, the Polynesian culture carried on within Hawaii – embracing the Aloha and utilizing the Koa wood that grew abundantly throughout the islands. Hawaiian double-hulled voyaging canoes were guided by the stars and the eyes that gazed upon them. Their journeys were an endless rebirth of the thousands of sailors that took to the open ocean in the name of exploration – telling the stories of their past, looking onward toward whatever the horizon granted.
