Description: | The consultants talks in general about the different 'veinehaes' of Nuku Hiva, a kind of spirit or god (?). In the first part he talks in particular of the veinehae Makeka for whom people had to make sacrifices and leave pieces of meat in trees when they went hunting on the To'ovi'i plateau or at Henua Ataha (Nuku Hiva), or when they went fishing at the surrounding coastlines of these two territories. | |
The project documents several different aspects of the Marquesan culture (legends, narratives, food preparation, plant medicine, fishing techniques, Marquesan trick languages, songs, dances etc.) | ||

North Marquesan was the only language used during the session. | ||
Mi was the only person talking during the session; there was only one observer (Ly) present. | ||
Mi was born in 1930 and grew up on the island of Nuku Hiva in Ho'oumi with his adoptive father Moa (born in 1901). Mi does not speak French and did not go to school; however, he is not illiterate. Mi is one of the few persons on the Marquesas islands who have a considerable knowledge of the former Marquesan culture, in particular of songs, legends/narratives and dances. He is also one of the few people who can speak Marquesan trick languages fluently. Most of his cultural knowledge was transmitted by his adoptive father. | ||
Ly accomanied me once to a consultant. She was my host during my stay on Nuku Hiva (in 2003) and she is the daughter of Tam and Maf. | ||
