  • Agricultural Terracing at Nakauvadra, Viti Levu: a Late Prehistoric Irrigated Agrosystem in Fiji
    Agricultural Terracing at Nakauvadra, Viti Levu: A Late Prehistoric Irrigated Agrosystem in Fiji ROBERT KUHLKEN AND ANDREW CROSBY ROOT CROPS FORMED THE BASIS OF SUBSISTENCE in the majority of prehistoric Pacific Island agrosystems. Besides yams (Dioscorea spp.), the most important do­ mesticate was taro (Colocasia esculenta), an ancient cultigen, and one inextricably linked with the development of Oceanian societies (Greenwell 1947; Spier 1951). This starchy tuber was the staple food in the diet of many Islanders, and was fur­ ther infused with ceremonial and ritual significance. In Fiji, root crops such as taro are categorized in dietary typology as kakana dina (true food), and no meal is deemed complete without them (Pollock 1986: 108). Also, the presentation of huge amounts of food by subservient local groups in customary tribute to more powerful polities was commonplace and expected. Yams and taro, along with turtles, were the standard components of these mandatory contributions. As po­ litical integration and social stratification proceeded, tributary requirements in­ creased, thereby exerting pressure on food-production capabilities. Agricultural intensification-the increase of labor inputs to a given area of land-was generally induced by some combination of social and environmental factors. The process may have occurred on Pacific Islands for various reasons, including the necessity for greater yields to support growing populations; the cul­ turally determined requirement for surplus production; or simply the need to overcome micro climatic and agronomic constraints (Brookfield 1972). Whatever the impetus behind it, increased agricultural intensity often resulted in dramatic and durable modifications to the environment. Yam mounds became a distinctive feature of agricultural landscapes in certain parts of Oceania; and intensive taro production typically assumed several forms: raised beds or drained fields in coastal plains and wetland areas, and irrigated terracing along streams and on hillsides.

UNITAR - UNOSAT on behalf of UN OCHA activated the International Space Charter on 19 February 2016. On the 20th of February 2016, the cyclone made landfall at 06:30 UTC (18:30 local time) over the north-eastern coast of Viti Levu (Fiji), the main island of the archipelago. The cyclone tracked west across the country, causing damage in four divisions (Western, Central, Eastern and Northern) with more concerns on the Western and Central divisions. According to FIJI Flash Appeal Tropical Cyclone Winston published by UNOCHA on 4 March 2016, 350,000 people living in the cyclone’s path could have been affected (170.000 female and 180,000 male) - equivalent to 40 per cent of Fiji’s population. This includes 120,000 children under the age of 18 (58,000 female and 62,000 male) and more than 3,100 people with disabilities. UNOSAT Damage Assessment UNOSAT triggered the space charter on behalf of UNOCHA the 19th of February 2016 and requested satellite imagery over the areas defined by UNOCHA based on the proximity to the cyclone track, wind speed values and related potential population exposure.

  • Human Activities and Flood Hazards and Risks in the South West Pacific: a Case Study of the Navua Catchment Area, Fiji Islands
    HUMAN ACTIVITIES AND FLOOD HAZARDS AND RISKS IN THE SOUTH WEST PACIFIC: A CASE STUDY OF THE NAVUA CATCHMENT AREA, FIJI ISLANDS Katalaine Duaibe A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Science in Physical Geography School of Geography, Environment and Earth Science Victoria University of Wellington 2008 Abstract Human activity is increasingly becoming a factor contributing to ‘disasters’ that occur worldwide. As evident in the Asian Tsunami of 2004, the high levels of loss of life and livelihood, and damage to property were largely due to the population density and human development of the physical landscape of the stricken region. The magnitude of natural hazards coupled with the high population density and low levels of development can have disastrous or catastrophic impacts on a nation as a whole, especially in small island states. Furthermore, the lack of governance structures, legislative compliance, and regulatory land use and planning coupled with the perception of risk of the general public, can all contribute to the magnitude of disasters. The flood plains of Navua, a small rural town outside of Fiji’s capital and prone to all types of flooding, are explored to determine the extent to which human activities impact on the magnitude of flooding and flood damage. Human activities such as land degradation, deforestation of catchment areas, increased population density along the Navua riverbanks inadequate land use planning, zoning, and control of flood plain development; and inadequate drainage, and management of discharges are examined when determining the factors that have contributed to the increased incidence of flooding of the past 100 years until 2004.

  • Fijian Colonial Experience: a Study of the Neotraditional Order Under British Colonial Rule Prior to World War II, by Timothy J
    1. Documen ts held in the National Archives of Suva The most important collections for this study are : (i) Records of the Colonial Secretary ' s Office 1897-1940 . (ii) Records of the Secretariat for Nat ive Af fairs 1918-35 . Note: For the CSO series prior to 1930 , regrettably , it is not possible to direct the reader to files collected under subject headings - they once were so organized for administrative use but lat er the bund les were broken up . And so , for example , to write the story of the beginning of the Apolosi movement in 1913 there is no collection of Apolosi files to consult : it is necessary to sort through 10, 535 files for 1913 that have been reshelved in their original numerical order in twenty-one large bundles - perhaps 30 feet high if stacked, and similarly through the years to 1929 . Letter registers and subj ect indexes describing individual files have to be used by anyone whose time is limited , but they are never fully reliable or consistent . From 1930 to 1940 the CSO files (but not the SNA files) are collected much more conveniently under broad subject divisions prefixed by the letter F and a number , e.g. FSO is the prefix for all files on Fij ian Affairs ; F50/6 : the Council of Chiefs papers 1931-39; FS0/ 13: correspondence relating to sorcery ; and so on . Other important collections are : ( i i i ) Provincial Council Records Books (incomplete) . ( i v) Proceedings of the Council of Chiefs. (v) Despatches to and from the Secretary of State for the Colonies .
