Five generations afterwards, a descendant of Anga-takurua named Tara-mai-te-tonga settled in Raro- tonga with Tangiia, of whose party he was a member.
These long expeditions, undertaken for purposes of war, show to what a pitch the Polynesians, at that time, had carried their powers of navigation. The love of the sea, and its accompanying adventures, must have been very strong in them.
From Onokura for two generations there are no events to record, l)ut in the third, or in the year 1200, flouri...shed Kaukura, who lived in Upolu, but removed from there and settled in Tahiti. We have now arrived at an interesting period in the history of Eastern Polynesia, where, as is shown in the Rarotongan Native History, communication was frequent throughout Central Polynesia. These are the times of Tangiia-nui, or circa 1250.
The Settlement of Rarotonga.
It has been shown that Rarotonga was first settled about 875, by the two men named Apopo, and their people. Here they and their descendants seem to have lived for 375 years, until the settlement there of Tangiia-nui, with SKETCH OF THE HISTORY OF THE RACE 173 few events to mark their history, for no mention is made of the island in the different voyages that are described during that period.
