Description: | In this session the consultant narrates the legend of Teiki Nono, a chief from Hiva 'Oa and his daughter who fell in love with a warrior from Nuku HIva visiting Hiva 'Oa to acquire the knowledge of how to cut red tufa (ke'etu). When the time comes to leave the island again, she wants to go with him to Nuku Hiva. He rejects the thought because it was a taboo for women to travel on canoes and he fears that if he breaks the taboo, they will all be killed and eaten. However, she goes with him, but before leaving Hiva 'Oa two old women by whom she was adopted, gave her two bowls of coconut. They tell her that she has to open the bowls of coconut once she has been thrown into the sea just before arriving at Nuku Hiva. The woman follows the instruction of the two old women and from the two bowls escape swarms of black sandflies (nono kia) and mosquitos (huerari) which invade Taipivai valley. This legend is supposd to explain why there are so many sandflies and mosquitos at Taipivai. | |
