The Kumulipo

• It is a oli hoʻokumu honua - cosmogonic creation chant that tells of the formation of the universe • It is pule hoʻolaʻa aliʻi (prayer to sanctify the chief) written for the birth of high chief Kalaninuiʻīamamao in abt. A.D. 1700. • It is 2106 lines long and done three times in history. • It divides the formation of the universe into two halves pō and ao (night and day) • It is divided into 16 wā or eras of time moving progressively genealogically from the earliest life forms to the chiefs.

Mau Piailug

• Micronesian navigator from the island of Satawal in Carolinian islands • Introduced traditional non- instrumental wayfinding techniques to Polynesia. With PVS (Polynesian voyaging society) helped to navigate Hōkūleʻa to Tahiti in 1976

Thor Heyerdahl

• Norwegian ethnographer and adventurer • In 1947 sailed a raft called the Kon Tiki drifting 5000 miles • From Peru South America to the Tuamotus. • Attempted to prove that Polynesian and Pacific people originated from South America due to the prevailing winds and currents going East to West. • He landed and smashed on a reef in Rarioa in the Tuamotus in 102 days time (3 months).
