Prior to the arrival of Christianity, the Samoan people worshipped many gods and ancestors as part of their complex polytheistic religion. They had no idols, however, so missionaries assumed they were a godless culture. The missionaries brought a new belief system, new rituals, new values, and new structure to the Samoan culture.
