From Easter Island to Hawaii: Was there a Common Writing System used by Pacific Islanders?
Recently two tourists found engraved petroglyphs on a Hawaiian Beach. This was an important find because it suggested that the ancient Polynesians had a common writing system which was used from Hawaii to Easter Island.
These inscriptions were accidentally found on the coastline at Waianae, Oahu Island by Lonnie Watson and Mark Louviere of Ft. Worth, Texas. The petroglyphs were only seen after sunlight illuminated the signs along the shore line for a limited period of time. The Waianae signs are dated several hundred years before Europeans reached the Hawaiian Islands.
