“ Thank you for posting this significant piece of history. I have found colonies of Tonga like this one in Fiji in New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Solomon, Tuvalu, Uvea and other islands. Not to forget that there are also colonies of Fiji in Tonga (Kouro) and Lakemba, Lomaiviti, in Tongatapu, Samoa in Tonga (Kanokupolu), Tuanekivale in Vava'u. so whether it was intentional, or by chance that our people went to Fiji like this Maile Latamai history or they came to Tonga, the fact is that there was close connection between Tonga and other islands in the Pacific. A good source for this close relationship between Tonga, Fiji and Samoa can be found on Niel Gunson's article on the book titled Tongan Culture and History. Malo. ”
