Distinctive obsidian rock from Mayor Island in New Zealand has been found on Raoul Island (the northernmost island of the Kermadec group) – proof that canoes got at least this far back to island Polynesia. In addition, DNA analysis of Pacific rats from the Kermadecs and Norfolk Island shows different strains, suggesting that there were multiple introductions of the rat.
