The tuiga is the headpiece that is worn by a Taupou/Augafa'apae (female) or Manaia (male), to show their status as the daughter or son of the highest chief in the village, or sometimes the whole district, when they perform the Samoan dance for dignitaries in prominent events, international/national/district/village gatherings, etc, etc.
