The admixture date estimates overlap with the most recent estimates for the peopling of the island, suggesting that a brief time may separate the admixture event and the peopling of Rapa Nui.

DiNapoli et al. precluded collapses in the island by considering evidence for a totally different phenomenon: the 'continuities/discontinuities' in a given cultural tradition (i.e. the 'ahu moai' tradition), not a demographic process.

The basic dynamic model predicts that after initial colonization around 1100-1280 CE, population grew exponentially until equilibrium population size, which is determined by land area and food productivity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
