Hagoth and the Polynesian Tradition
Hagoth and the Polynesian Tradition Jerry K. Loveland n what amounts to an aside in the story of the Book of Mormon I peoples, there is in the 63rd chapter of Alma a brief reference to a “curious man” named Hagoth. And it came to pass that Hagoth, he being an exceedingly curi- ous man, therefore he went forth and built him an exceedingly large ship, on the borders of the land Bountiful, by the land Desolation, and launched it into the west sea, by the narrow neck which led into the land northward. And behold, there were many of the Nephites who did enter therein and did sail forth with much provisions, and also many women and children; and they took their course northward. And thus ended the thirty and seventh year. And in the thirty and eighth year, this man built other ships. And the first ship did also return, and many more people did enter into it; and they also took much provisions, and set out again to the land northward. And it came to pass that they were never heard of more. And we suppose that they were drowned in the depths of the sea. And it came to pass that one other ship also did sail forth; and whither she went we know not. (Alma 3:5–8) What we have here, is an account of a colonizing movement of men, women, and children who went out in ships presumably into the Pacific Ocean sometime between 53 and 57 b.c. And they were never heard of again. -

Temporal and Geographical Emergence of the Classic East Polynesian Marae Complex Paul Wallin and Reidar Solsvik
78 The place of the land and the seat of the ancestors: Temporal and geographical emergence of the classic East Polynesian marae complex Paul Wallin and Reidar Solsvik Introduction ‘Marae’ is a word that has many cognates in Polynesian languages and in almost all cases it designate some type of religious site or assembly place. The morpheme can be reconstructed back to Proto Polynesia PPn* malaqe with a possible meaning as “meeting place” (POLLEX). On the Polynesian Outliers and in the island groups of Samoa and Tonga, malae is used to designate an open cleared space within or at the side of the settlement where people gather to held meetings or certain social and religious ceremonies. On some islands like Alofi, the malae has a row of upright stones or backrests at one end. On other islands, like Tokelau and Kapingamarangi, the meetings and ceremonies take place inside a house, while the general area around the house is known as malae . In most East Polynesian island groups, the main exceptions being Hawai’i and New Zealand, the word ‘marae’ refers to a particular group of ritual structures with many common architectural characteristics. It is a rectangular space with a low stone platform or enclosure at one side. On Hawai’i it is the word ‘ heiau ’ that designate religious architecture, of various design rather dissimilar to the other island groups although ceremonies taking place on these sites strongly resembles ceremonies conducted on marae sites. The Maori language use the word ‘marae’ to characterise the courtyard in front of the meeting house, or it designates, in a modern usage the whole complex of buildings and activity ground which also include the meeting house. -

WELCOME TO CONRAD BORA BORA NUI NEVER JUST STAY. STAY INSPIRED MAEVA French Polynesia is a country splintered into 118 islands, scattered in the middle of the world’s largest ocean. Each of these islands is attached to its identity, and each has its own tales and its own legends. This diversity gives French Polynesia its unique character, and a particular strength as all these stories and legends meet to form the ma’ohi culture. A majestic volcanic island, just like a queen surrounded, Bora Bora has the most extraordinary lagoon in the world. Bora Bora used to be called Vavau. The first European to sight the island was Dutchman Jakob Roggeveen in 1722. Captain Cook landed there in 1769 and named it Bora Bora on nautical charts. In 1847, French king Louis-Philippe recognized the Leewards Islands as independent, including Bora Bora ruled by king Tapoa II, former husband of Pomare IV, queen of Tahiti. Bora Bora only became a French territory in 1898. The island belongs to a group of volcanic islands that arose from a hot spot. The volcano, which was active a little over three million years ago, collapsed and was subjected to strong erosion. Motu To’opua, which peaks at 148 meters (485 ft.), is the only remaining fragment of the southeast rim of the crater. The pearl of the pacific is world-famous for its glinting turquoise lagoon, dazzlingly white sandy stretches of beach and luxurious resorts. With such a dreamlike setting, this magical island is, unsurprisingly, a great spot to discover. Bora Bora is one of the world’s top resort destinations. -

A Maritime History of the Port of Whitby, 1700-1914
A MARITIME HISTORY OF THE PORT OF WHITBY, 1700-1914 - Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London STEPHANIE KAREN JONES UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON 1982 2 A MARITIME HISTORY OF THE PORT OF WHITBY, 1700-1914 ABSTRACT This study attempts to contribute to the history of merchant shipping in a manner suggested by Ralph Davis, that 'the writing of substantial histories of the ports' was a neglected, but important, part of the subject of British maritime history. Rspects of the shipping industry of the port of Whitby fall into three broad categories: the ships of Whitby, built there and owned there; the trades in which these vessels were employed; and the port itself, its harbour facilities and maritime community. The origins of Whitby shipbuilding are seen in the context of the rise to prominence of the ports of the North East coast, and an attempt is made to quantify the shipping owned at Whitby before the beginning of statutory registration of vessels in 1786. A consideration of the decline of the building and owning of sailing ships at Whitby is followed by an analysis of the rise of steamshipping at the port. The nature of investment in shipping at Whitby is compared with features of shipowning at other English ports. An introductory survey of the employ- ment of Whitby-owned vessels, both sail and steam, precedes a study of Whitby ships in the coal trade, illustrated with examples of voyage accounts of Whitby colliers. The Northern Whale Fishery offered further opportunities for profit, and may be contrasted with the inshore and off - shore fishery from Whitby itself.
