Welcome to the Pacific Ocean! I am Professor Pineapple and I will be your guide today. Behind me is the big island
of Maui. Lets explore the rich history of the islands that
make up Hawaii.
Explorers from the Marquesas Islands first discovered Maui bringing their culture to the Island. These explorers, riding in canoes,
used only the stars and the wind patterns to find the big island.About 1500 years ago
About 1000 years ago, Tahitian immigrants settled the
island, bringing Hula dancing and surfing. They also helped
to develop the social system of kapu (taboo), where people
were ruled by royal chiefs.
The hula was a serious dance preformed in honor of the chief.
Captain James Cook, a British explorer, came in 1778
and tried to claim the islands as his own. On his second
trip, the Hawaiians defended themselves against the
explorer who wanted to steal their land.
