Odd because the Island was temporarily inhabited starting in December 1938 (appr. Earhart crash was July 1937). You'd think signs of a plane wreck and/or habitation would have still been visible then and come across at some point during the time people lived there.

Tapania Taiki, who lived on the island in the 1950s as a little girl, says she remembers an airplane wing on the reef near the village, and the elders told the kids to stay away from it because it had something to do with the ghosts of a man and a woman. Emily Sikuli, who lives in Fiji, left Nikumaroro in 1941, but says her father showed her airplane wreckage on the same part of the reef, and that human bones were found in the area.
