Well, eastward colonization doesn't seem to have worked out if they tried it. It's the lack of return voyages to the mother islands that I wonder most about. Was there a war? So happy here they didn't feel a need to go anywhere else? Some other reason? It just seems amazing that a truly legendary and culture defining skill like long distance ocean navigation would be lost or forgotten and then have to be revived with outside help several hundred years later.
