The Paumotu or Tuamotu Islands, called also the Dangerous or Low Archiof the Society Group.
They
pelago, include 78 islands, lying to the eastward
extend over 16 degrees of longitude, and have many outlying islets and reefs. Eighteen
of the islands are uninhabited, and in the south-eastern part of the archipelago
sixteen islands are peopled by savage tribes, numbering altogether about 700 souls.
Mitia, one of the most westerly of the islands, lying about 120 miles N.E. of Tahiti,
is a bold mass of coralline limestone rising 250 feet above the sea, and with its coastThe others are mostly low-lying coral atolls,

few miles to a hundred, ring the atolls with breakers ; but inside the lagoons the
waters are hmpid and transparent, revealing marine vegetation of exquisite forms.
of the islands are more than 30 feet above high water mark, and these are
covered with thickets of pandanus (screw-pine) and coco-nut palms.
The islands were discovered by San Miguel Archangel, and were seen by Quiros
in 1606.
Later on they were visited by Le Maire, Schouten, and Jacob Koggewein.
They have, during the last century, been resorted to by Europeans as whalers,
traders, &c., the whaling vessels recruiting there for boat-steerers, harpooners, &c.,
the Paumotuan natives being famous as the bravest and hardiest sailors in the South
Seas.
They are also renowned as pearl-fishers and it has been estimated that
25,000 tons of pearl shell (worth about 1,000,000) have been exported from this

almost-unknown group.
The natives are apparently a branch of the Polynesian family. They are darker
than Samoans or Tongans, and are of fierce, fearless aspect. They tatoo all over
the body and face, in Maori or Marquesan fashion, with conventional patterns in
this, differing from their nearest neighbours, the Tahitians, whose tattoo is very

;
they are courageous, faithful, and kind-hearted. For this reason, Pomare of Tahiti
had a Paumotuan body-guard. On the other hand, they are very turbulent and
rowdy, impatient of restraint, and demand high wages. Formerly, their islands were
densely peopled but European diseases, emigration to the Society Islands, and the
visits of slavers from the Spanish Main, have left only some 3,500 of these fine

natives in existence.
They wear very light clothing generally, only a waist-belt and a head-dress of
made from the paper-mulberry. Their spears, of about 15ft. in length, are
but these spears, as well as their paddles, are profusely
their principal weapons
carved in elegant designs. Their vessels are immensely fine and strong double-
