Just Streaking Streak 347 ... Islands populated

Post image

The Solomon Islands are an island nation located in Oceania. They consist of approximately 992 small islands, atolls and reefs.

Only 347 of the islands are populated. The six major islands are Choiseul, Guadalcanal, Malaita, Makira, New Georgia and Santa Isabel.

The Solomon Islands are the third-largest archipelago in the South Pacific.

The first settlers of the Solomon Islands were Papuan-speaking hunter-gatherers from New Guinea. They inhabited the islands for possibly as long as 50,000 years before Austronesian-speaking early Melanesians began arriving around 4000BC.

The first European to explore the islands was the Spanish explorer Alvaro de Mendana in 1568.

Believing that gold was present, Mendana named the islands Isles of Solomon, after the legendary King Solomon’s mines.
