This book was released on 2022-12-30 with total page 752 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Martin (1789-1869) was a London-based, Edinburgh-educated physician interested in anthropological matters. This is his only book. He was inspired to write it by a chance encounter with its subject, William Mariner (1791-1853) who spent four years (1806-1810) in Tonga, in the South Pacific, one of the earliest European residents at a time before European influence disturbance or modification society. Mariner, an extraordinarily mature and perceptive youth, became thoroughly imbued with Tongan language and culture as the adopted son of the most powerful chief in Tonga. Thanks to Martin’s intelligent engagement with Mariner resulted in a compelling narrative and a comprehensive account of Tongan society which became a classic. Often celebrated as an extraordinary real-life adventure story, it is a pioneering work of anthropology, and for 200 years it has been a primary and authoritative source for research into Tongan history and culture.

Ceremony of Finow's burial--Grief of his widows--Self inflictions of the mourners--Funeral procession to Felletoa-- The policy of the prince--Description of the grave, and ceremony of interment--Ceremonies after burial--Respect paid by persons in passing the grave--The prince's intimation to Voona that he should exile himself--The prince receives authority as How at a cava party--His noble speech on this occasion--Farther exhortations to his chiefs and matabooles respecting the cultivation of the country--Half mourning commences--The ceremony of the twentieth day after burial--The dance called Meetoo Buggi--Heroic behaviour of two boys at the grave--The late How's fishermen exhibit proofs of their affection for the deceased --Moral and political character of the late How--His personal character--A brief comparison between the characters of the late and present How. All the chiefs and matabooles were now assembled on the malai at Neafoo. Among the rest was Voona, to whom the prince went up, and intimated the necessity of removing the body of his father to Felletoa. It would have been thought very disrespectful if he had not mentioned this to Voona before he issued orders respecting it, because Voona was a very great chief, even greater than Finow himself, and such a reserve on such a public occasion, towards a superior, would have been an act offensive to the gods. It may appear strange that Voona was a greater chief than the son of the king, yet it is a frequent occurrence, that the king is chosen from a family not of the highest rank, on account of his superior wisdom or mir litary skill, and this was the case with the present royal family; so that the king is often obliged to pay a certain ceremonious respect (hereafter...
