Tikopia History

Historical and Culturally Relationships - Tikopia

Recent archeological research shows that Tikopia has been under occupation for about 3,000 years. Probably the first (. 900 to 100 B . C .) used local sandblasted clay of the Papitoid variety; the second (ca. 100 B. C. until 1200 A.D.) probably brought its ceramics, which had a more complex design, from the New Hebrides (Vanuatu) to the North.

No ceramics were used at all in the last part of the third stage (c. A . D . 1200 to 1800). During the first two stages swine, bat and eel were ate. Until the end of the last stage (around 1800 A.D. until today) no swine were kept and bat and eel with dislike were considered as aliment.

Apparently, the third part of the tradition was the product of a distinct type of Polynesia migration. Obviously, throughout the entire occupying time of Tikopia, humans had uneven, rare, but sustainable intercultural relationships with Polish and Melanese tribes on other nearby isles, through tedious, often hazardous canoeing.

It was not until the end of the last millennium that the UK claimed Tikopia was controlled; this was seldom practised until after the Second World War, during which Tikopia was not disturbed.

Hawai' i state emerging conjectural step 2 is modelled on Tikopia. Instead of being the result of political force, the four symbolical chieftains of the Fellowship have an impact on their role as esteemed elderly relatives and mediators between the deities and the population.

A Tikopia boss, as part of the island's present economics, expresses his tradition of being a noble eldest by re-distributing to the humans the constant flow of foods and other presents he receives from the humans. The heavy nutritional pressure caused by the fast demographic increase and a storm that ravaged the island's harvests in 1952 resulted in a swift and unparalleled increase in forced action to reduce stealing and stealing it.

It is this crises that is the basis for the theory of the formation of the state investigated in Section 15.
