Narrated by an Unimane of the Boti of Karongoa n Uea on Nikunau in 1934 / transcribed by Tione Baraka of Taboiaki on Beru; translated by G. H. Eastman; edited, annotated and revised by H. E. Maude. The story of the Karongoa clan from its origin and development in Samoa to modern times in Kiribati. It was dictated early in the 1930s to Tione Baraka, a member of Karongoa, by an Elder of the clan in Nikunau. This elder did not wish his name to be disclosed at the time, and no record of it has survived. This work represents a remarkable feat of memory. It tells the story of the first boti, or clan, founded in Samoa - the members of which later lead the migration to Kiribati from Samoa.
