Probably first people on Tahiti were Polynesian voyagers who came from west Pacific from Samoa or Tonga and, before, even far way from Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia and Taiwan and neighborings, originated in Southeast Asia. Great navigators, they knew the stars and winds and ocean currents, with their doubled- hulled canoes(waka, wa´a...in their languages) they arrived as far as Hawai´i in north Pacific, Eastern Island (east) and Aoatearoa (New Zealand) in south Pacific, the Polynesian Triangle. Scientists researches find similarities among these people (DNA, languages, animals, vegetals and trees they brought on their ships, myths, religion and so on...). Aroha..Aloha.....
