Abstract excerpt

The Samoan islands were politically separated into American Samoa and Western Samoa in the early 1900s. Economic modernization is far more extensive in American Samoa. However, the Samoan archipelago has maintained a remarkable degree of sociocultural homogeneity, including intermarriage. The sociocultural exchanges presumably led to genetic homogeneity between the two Samoas. Detailed genetic comparisons and...
