I've been told, that the population of the Easter Island can be more complex

Some books tells, that the entire original inhabitants came from Polynesia.
Other books tells, that some of the people (in the 1700s) were very tall and
lightskinned - some of them should even have been red-haired.
If that is true, the settlement of the Easter Island may be just as
fascinating as the settlement of America appears to be - - - after the
discovery of the Kennewick Man.

I have also heard that Easter Island was populated from the other
direction, South America, which is closer.

The problem with all of the hypotheses lies within the assumption that
our progenitors were a single man and woman. This goes even further back
to the assumption that all life began as a single cell.

No one has suggested simultaneous evolution.

In other words, there was not an original human race, but several
species of apes evolved at the same time.
