  • Ancient Magic and Religious Trends of the Rāhui on the Atoll of Anaa, Tuamotu Frédéric Torrente
    2 Ancient magic and religious trends of the rāhui on the atoll of Anaa, Tuamotu Frédéric Torrente This paper is based on vernacular material that was obtained from one of the last of the ancient vanaga, masters of pre-Christian lore, Paea-a-Avehe, of Anaa1 Island. Introduction Throughout the last century, in the Tuamotuan archipelago, the technical term rāhui has been applied to ‘sectors’ (secteurs): specified areas where the intensive monoculture of the coconut tree was established, at that time and still today, according to the principle of letting these areas lie fallow between periods of cropping. The religious reasons for this method have been forgotten. The link between Christian conversion and the development of coconut plantations has changed the Tuamotuan atoll’s landscape through the introduction 1 Anaa is the Tahitian name of this atoll (‘Ana’a). In Tuamotuan language, it should be noted ‘Ganaa’ or ‘Ganaia’. This atoll is situated in western Tuamotu, in the Putahi or Parata linguistic area. 25 THE RAHUI of new modes of land occupation and resource management. In old Polynesia, the political and the religious were intertwined, as well as man and his symbolic and ritual environment. Political and social aspects are studied elsewhere in this book. This essay considers the religious and ritual picture of pre-European life on the islands, and shows how religious concepts influenced man in his environment. The Tuamotuan group of islands represents the greatest concentration of atolls worldwide; they are a unique, two-dimensional universe, close to water level and lacking environmental features, such as high ground, that could provide a place of refuge.

  • The Effects of the Cyclones of 1983 on the Atolls of the Tuamotu Archipelago (French Polynesia)
    THE EFFECTS OF THE CYCLONES OF 1983 ON THE ATOLLS OF THE TUAMOTU ARCHIPELAGO (FRENCH POLYNESIA) J. F. DUPON ORSTOM (French Institute ofScientific Research for Development through cooperation), 213 Rue Lafayette - 75480 Paris Cedex 10, France Abstract. In the TUAMOTU Archipelago, tropical cyclones may contribute to the destruction as well as to some building up of the atolls. The initial occupation by the Polynesians has not increased the vulnerability of these islands as much as have various recent alterations caused by European influence and the low frequency of the cyclone hazard itself. An unusual series of five cyclones, probably related to the general thermic imbalance of the Pacific Ocean between the tropics struck the group in 1983 and demonstrated this vulnerability through the damage that they caused to the environment and to the plantations and settle­ ments. However, the natural rehabilitation has been faster than expected and the cyclones had a beneficial result in making obvious the need to reinforce prevention measures and the protection of human settle­ ments. An appraisal of how the lack of prevention measures worsened the damage is first attempted, then the rehabilitation and the various steps taken to forestall such damage are described. I. About Atolls and Cyclones: Some General Information Among the islands of the intertropical area of the Pacific Ocean, most of the low-lying lands are atolls. The greatest number of them are found in this part of the world. Most atolls are characterized by a circular string of narrow islets rising only 3 to 10 m above the average ocean level.

    Cher lecteur, EDITO Jusqu’à présent régi par une délibération datant de 1977, le transport maritime est en pleine mutation. Une nouvelle loi de Pays sur l’organisation du transport maritime et aérien interinsulaires ainsi que le schéma directeur des déplacements durables interinsulaires 2015-2025 ont été adoptés en 2016. Après plusieurs mois de consultations et d’élaboration, la nouvelle délibération permettant de mieux réguler et améliorer les transports maritimes interinsulaires devrait voir le jour courant 2017. L’année 2016 a été marquée par l’arrêt d’activité du navire KURA ORA II. La Compagnie Maritime des Tuamotu (CMT), qui avait racheté ce navire en 2014, a cessé son exploitation en mai 2016. Le Pays a immédiatement réagi en lançant une consultation auprès des autres armements afin de répartir la desserte des îles auparavant desservies par le navire KURA ORA II pour que le ravitaillement de ces îles des Tuamotu ne soit pas trop impacté. Cette année 2016 a vu également la mise en service par le Pays d’une navette à passagers pour assurer la desserte des îles des Marquises du sud afin de combler le manque d’offre de transport régulier en passagers entre les îles de Fatu Hiva, Tahuata et Hiva Oa. Le projet de rachat des sociétés assurant l’exploitation des 4 navires TAPORO par le groupe EMAR, qui possède déjà les navires HAWAIKI NUI et NUKU HAU, n’a pas abouti. La cession de l’un des navires exploités sur la desserte des îles de la Société, condition exigée par l’Autorité polynésienne de la concurrence (APC) pour autoriser ce rachat afin d’éviter une situation de monopole sur cette desserte, a été un élément déterminant ayant conduit le groupe EMAR à abandonner le projet de rachat.

To understand spat collecting temporal Received in revised form and spatial variations, larval supply and its origin need to be characterized. To achieve this, it is necessary 14 May 2016 to account for the stock of oysters, its distribution and population characteristics (size distribution, sex- Accepted 19 June 2016 ratio). While the farmed stock in concessions can be easily characterized, the wild stock is elusive. Here, Available online 20 June 2016 we investigate the distribution and population structure of the wild stock of Ahe and Takaroa atolls using fine-scale bathymetry and in situ census data. Stocks were surprisingly low (~666,000 and ~1,030,000 Keywords: Invertebrate population oysters for Ahe and Takaroa respectively) considering these two atolls have both been very successful Aquaculture spat collecting atolls in the past.

    13. A CENTURY OF CHANGE IN CORAL REEF STATUS IN SOUTHEAST AND CENTRAL PACIFIC: POLYNESIA MANA NODE, COOK ISLANDS, FRENCH POLYNESIA, KIRIBATI, NIUE, TOKELAU, TONGA, WALLIS AND FUTUNA CAROLINE VIEUX, ANNIE AUBANEL, JOANNA AXFORD, YANNICK CHANCERELLE, DAVE FISK, PAULA HOLLAND, MATHIEU JUNCKER, TARATAU KIRATA, MECKI KRONEN, CRAIG OSENBERG, BRENDON PASISI, MARY POWER, BERNARD SALVAT, JEFF SHIMA AND VAVIA VAVIA ABSTRACT The Polynesia Mana Node of the southeast and central Pacific contains 7 independent or autonomous countries or territories with only 6,000 km2 of land on 347 islands, but surrounded by 12 million km2 of EEZ. These seas contain 13,000 km2 of coral reefs as the main natural ecosystem providing food resources and opportunities for development, especially for tourism and pearl culture for 500,000 inhabitants. During the 19th and first half of the 20th centuries, there was major exploitation by the colonial powers of mother-of-pearl oysters for the button industry, as well as guano, sandalwood and trepang. The Polynesian people were largely involved in a subsistence economy and all coral reefs and lagoons were healthy. During the last two decades of the 20th, all countries experienced rapid development and urbanization, rising populations, and some increased agriculture. These developments were limited to a few islands of each country (i.e. 15 islands amongst the 347) with resulting degradation of the coral reefs around these sites. The other islands remained mostly uninhabited and pristine, and continued with a subsistence economy. Generally, there was more damage to the coral reefs through natural events such as cyclones and coral bleaching, than by human activities.
