The Polynesian people descended from the [[Lapita]] people who migrated into the islands now known as [[Fiji]], [[Samoa]] and [[Tonga]] several thousand years ago,{{fact}} and later Polynesians migrated to [[New Zealand]] (the [[Maori]] arrived around 1000 AD), [[Hawaii|Hawai'i]] and other islands. Other countries and territories in Polynesia include [[American Samoa]], [[Niue]], [[Tuvalu]], [[Wallis and Futuna]], [[French Polynesia]] (including [[Tahiti]]), [[Pitcairn Island]], [[Cook Islands]] and [[Tokelau]].+ − − Like other cultures, the Polynesians used a flattened or terraced pyramid for worship, similar to a ziggurat.
