Thank you. I am a young Tongan and our myth was true that we came from Pulotu and we will return to Pulotu when we pass on. With your expertise and knowledge I can finally hear it from an old Pacific cousin. Vinaka and malo!
Malo Toko! Always great to hear that our oceanic cousins learn a thing or two from our shared knowledge and ancestry.
Rusa I Vanua was estimated by Cook as 123 feet when it pulled up alongside the endeavour at Vatoa endeavour was 98 feet

Bula. I have seen carpenters and house builders using the ocean and horizon as a level.
Thank you for this video podcast! Amazing content! It was awesome having Mr Sevudredre share with us about Fiji's pre-colonial history. It's truly amazing to see the wealth of knowledge our forefathers carried with them along with their traditions and customs.
Would love it if you could continue this video podcast to address more topics on Fiji BC and deep dive into some of the topics already covered in this series. Keep up the good work! Fai'aksia (:

In Africa, in this Taqanaika region, dwelt for a long time warrior group of people called " Viti " people Africa king them very well.

The flowers tree seen in the image below is common to both Tanganyika and fiji
In fiji it is called the fijian tulips and found all over Viti Levu
So sad it cames to an end.....it just started to got interesting...
Fiji came from Tanganyika Ruah river fiji
Lutunasobasoba brought originally name " Viti "
Some more please
Ancient times Lutunasobasoba brought the circumcision culture tradition
Encore encore do some more
Have to come back again and leave this here; @31.19 mentioned of ('Rokomoko' the god of war) funny enough, I would suggest if you're curious enough connect the dot, to watch David Icke - Conspiracy of Lizard Illuminati
The name fijian lutunasobasoba brought
Lutunasobasoba brought circumcision culture tradition Egypt

Nodratou Haka Na All Blacks e tini tiko va qo
" Whiti Te Ra"
Na Ra kei Viti..
Where did Fijian people come from?
@@xcusemefrench171 stop trying to be Jewish, or a race of special people, from Israel, we came from South East Asia. When lutunasobasoba arrived in vuda, there were smoke seen in the Highlands which meant he wasn't the first people. So the whole story of him sailing all the way from Lake Tanganyika in Africa to Fiji is pure BS
@@cerulean739 see.. it's not about how to be Jewish. But what the Biblical evidence shows no matter how theology or science pertains, the Creation of mankind or Human race is the True source of Fiji and the rest of the world originity. Fijians not only met it's scientific proof it needs to meet it's Biblical origin beginning also. That's why every Fijian story is linked back to Africa because it connect it closer to the creation place of Eden in the middle East of Israel. Wether someone claimed the Asian roots one way or another it should point back to the original creation of mankind.. a theory without God, will always unstable and compromising because we living out the Creator Himself. I'm proud to be a Fijian because we link ourselves closer to the roots of All Human race. So the African route is greatly applicable to Fiji more than Asia because of God's Original place of Creation.
@@simionenauluvula7981 hahahaha too much explanation full of shit..THE BIBLE IS A FICTIONAL WORK...
stop trying to act special just because a book written by the Jewish patriarch thought there was a special race created 6000 years ago...🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fijian only fiji
Being a grandson of a fijian chief , our legend state we traveled down the river Rufiji in Africa south of Tanzania. Apparently we were warrior who also worked as gold mines Egypt
Nope that's story has been debunked. Fijian Itaukeis are just Polynesian and Melanesian ppl of the Pacific who came through Asia.
Tonga different originally fijian tribe
Originally fijian not from Tonga
Bula malo about the Rua it's was making from vavau in Tonga but the king of Tonga bring the Samoan man from upolu Samoan and from Fiji, from this two man they make the Rua and send some to fiji,samoa Tahiti and Tonga...
Fijian and Tonga different culture
Tonga Polynesian came from Filipino
ancient times
The early fijian circumcision around the age puberty about the twenty years. In the book s the fijian-- AStudy of the Decay of custom
Basil Thomson write that write that during pagan
times , this coming of age may have arrived earlier . Circumcision was not strictly a religious rite
Not Tonga custom
1st century cushites from Ethiopia settle in Tanganyika
10 century AD about this time the fable of fijian from Tanganyika
(Chronological History man in Tanganyika )
IT FABLE THAT ABOUT THIS THE POWERFUL CHIEF LUTUNASOBASOBA AND HIS PEOPLE FOLLOWED THE TRADE CROSS THE INDIAN OCEAN TREVILLING SOUTH EAST ASIA SETTLED FIJI ISLAND PACIFIC
ANCIENT TIMES FIJIAN Ladies Tattoo custom culture
FYI : Google search- DNA admixture of Fijians. It will say Asian and 30% Melanesian. Science thru blood and DNA is not a made up story- in Fijian it called : curu mai duru. Like pulling information out from some part of once body - namely backside.
Polynesian
You conman
Fijian from Tanganyika
Originally Tonga from zimbabwe
It's all about diminishing my cultures and my true origin as the original Polynesian. It's not a complete truth of our history as polys. Need more honest studies.
No such thing as a "Pure Poly" because there was no such thing back then. Thats a new construct.
Remember, Back then all the people in the Pacific engage with each other not just Polys to Polys or Micronesians to Micronesians.
Come on guys..
Use coasters...🤣😂
