  • Section 5 Tongan Colonization of Fiji
    SECTION 5. TONGAN COLONIZATION IN FIJI. Colonies of Tongans settled in Fiji from very early times. The evidence seems to suggest that this 'colonization' took place for a number of different reasons. In the first instance it seems that colonies of Tongans established themselves in Fiji for economic reasons. Tonga lacked timber necessary for boat building, and timber for this purpose was to be found in abundance in Fiji. Fiji also produced sandalwood, a ‘cosmetic’ coveted by Tongans for the preparation of scented oils. The evidence seems to suggest that Tongan visits to Fiji, and the setting up of colonies of Tongans in Fiji, were motivated by the desire to obtain sandalwood and to build large sailing canoes. By the 1830's however, another powerful motive for Tongan interest in Fiji emerged. The 1830's in Tonga saw what has been called a great religious ‘Revival’. This revival swept the land and stimulated a missionary fervour that led many Tongan converts to offer to take the gospel to other Pacific territories, notably Samoa and Fiji. So it was that missionaries, Tongan missionaries, were sent out to Fiji. Of these Tongan missionaries, Sioeli Pulu, stands out above all others. His ‘Autobiography’, translated and published in 1871 by one of the English missionaries, is an important source on information on this aspect of the contact between Tonga and Fiji. Economic and Religious factors had played their part in drawing Tongans to Fiji. It was a political factor however that was undoubtedly the most significant stimulus to colonization. By the 1840's the large Tongan population in Fiji was causing concern to some sectors of the Fiji community.

  • Whale Teeth Tabua, Chiefship and Power in Eastern Fiji
    ‘SUPREME AMONG OUR VALUABLES’: WHALE TEETH TABUA, CHIEFSHIP AND POWER IN EASTERN FIJI STEVEN HOOPER Sainsbury Research Unit, University of East Anglia A tabua, a ulu ni weimami iyau The whale tooth is supreme among [the head of] our valuables This statement was made during a wide-ranging conversation in May 1978 with Tevita Soro of Naikeleyaga village on Kabara Island in Lau, eastern Fiji. He was an elder in a non-chiefly herald clan in Naikeleyaga, and had long experience of Fijian customary procedures. I had asked him about the significance of tabua, sperm whale teeth, pierced at each end for the attachment of a cord (Fig. 1), which I had seen presented on numerous formal occasions in Lau during the previous year (and have seen presented on many occasions since). Tevita went on to explain, “The tabua is a chiefly thing. It is their valuable, the chiefs. They decide about it. The tabua is their valuable.” He also observed that money (ilavo) was a European thing, whereas tabua was Fijian, and if a Fijian was engaged in any serious purpose, then it would be appropriate to take there a tabua. Anyone familiar with Fijian cultural practice will be aware that tabua have high value.1 They are presented with speeches on great state occasions and during exchanges involving kin, such as at weddings, mortuary rituals and receptions for honoured guests (Fig. 2). They are also offered when making a special request or entreating forgiveness for some misdemeanour. Given the cultural importance of tabua, and the relatively limited discussion of them in the anthropological literature, this article has three main aims: (i) to provide an account of their recent use in Fiji, (ii) to assess the historical evidence for their use since the early 19th century, and (iii) to analyse why they were and are considered highly valuable and suitable for the important roles they have played in Fiji for over 200 years and possibly longer.

  • Tonga Is Too Small for Him…”
    7. “Tonga is too small for him…” News of the British government’s decision concerning Fiji, so eagerly awaited by so many there and in Tonga, finally arrived several months before Ma`afu’s return from his long visit to his homeland. As often with momentous news, trickles of information preceded the formal advice. In May 1862, a letter from Commodore Seymour reached William Hennings at Levuka, advising the trader that cession was declined and that HMS Miranda, Captain Robert Jenkins, would visit Fiji with an official party instructed to advise the chiefs that they were to be neither governed nor protected by Great Britain. In addition, the officials would participate in a Commission of Enquiry to investigate various charges levelled against Consul Pritchard.1 In finally declining cession in September 1861, the Colonial Office took particular note of the recommendations of Colonel Smythe. He had placed emphasis on the near impossibility of avoiding involvement in “native wars” and in “disputes with other civilized countries”.2 The Foreign Office needed no persuading, and in March 1862 the Colonial Secretary, the Duke of Newcastle, advised the Governor of New South Wales, Sir John Young, that Great Britain would not assume sovereignty over Fiji. Young was appointed to lead the delegation formally to advise the Fijian chiefs of the decision.3 In Fiji itself Pritchard, who had laboured so long to make cession a reality, notified his American colleague of the decision on 28 July.4 In submitting his report the previous year, Smythe had recommended to the Colonial Office that Pritchard be dismissed, principally on the grounds that irreconcilable differences had arisen between him and the Fijian chiefs.5 Disquiet in London concerning several aspects of Pritchard’s administration led the Colonial Office to instruct Sir John Young to appoint a Commission to investigate 12 charges against the Consul, most of which arose from Smythe’s representations to the Foreign Office.

    NA BU: AN EXPLANATORY STUDY OF INDIGENIOUS KNOWLEDGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE EDUCATION IN OVALAU, FIJI Rosiana Kushila Lagi A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Copyright © 2015 by Rosiana Kushila Lagi School of Education Faculty of Arts, Law and Education The University of the South Pacific August, 2015 Declaration by the Candidate I hereby declare that this thesis is my own work and effort and that it has not been submitted anywhere for any award. Where other sources of information have been used, they have been acknowledged. Name: Rosiana Kushila Lagi Signature: ____________________________ Date: ___________________________ Declaration by the Supervisor In my capacity as supervisor of the candidate’s thesis, I certify that the above statements are true to the best of my knowledge. Name: Professor Konai HeluThaman Signature: ____________________________ Date: ___________________________ Abstract In mainstream Western Sciences, Climate Change (CC) is defined as the long-term alteration of global weather patterns, such as temperature increase/decrease, changes in winds are a subcategory of alteration of global weather patterns. Indigenous Fijians’ understanding of CC, however, is linked to their perception of climate or weather. Consequently, they view CC as an increase in temperature and rainfall that alter planting, harvesting, and fruiting seasons. They believe it contributes to the migration of fish, consequently affecting fisheries, on which the villages depend on as a food source and for financial income. Indigenous Fijians have gained their knowledge about CC mainly from their observations and experiences of their environment over thousands of years. This Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) has enabled Indigenous Fijians to forecast adverse weather.
