The Tahitian culture

Tahiti danceThe Tahitian culture was passed down from generation to generation orally before there became a system of writing in Tahiti.
It recounts the colorful legends of Gods and warriors.

It also tells about javelin throwing being the sport of the Gods, and surfing being the favorites of the kings.

The oral history also tells about the Aito who competed in canoe races as well as stone lifting which is reportedly a venue to show their strength.

The modern Tahitian today proudly preserves his or her Maori traditions.
