Abstract

Pasifika coasts in a sea of theologies. In ancient times, our ancestors engaged (sometimes they inspired and tricked) local and visiting gods as well as read the winds, the skies, the waves, and the cues of the (is)lands and the underground. Pasifika then was fale e ‘otua (home of gods), and “texts” were all around. Texts were on the islands. In the sea. In the sky. In the deep. And even in the dirt .
