Question, from my understanding Nafanua was the ancestress of Salamasina & she had lived long before Her time (which was estimated to be 1500’s) so I always wonder what do people mean when they say Nafanua Bestowed these titles on to Salamasina. Are they saying the goddess herself was still around? We’re they speaking to her spirit? Or was this A Woman with the chief title of Nafanua that had bestowed these titles on salamasina.

@@thehulajourney So obviously this isn’t true because Nafanua would’ve been over 200 years old lol, I recently done research on the ancestry of These families and Nafanua was estimated to have been born in the 13th century. So most likely when they speak of Her in the story of Salamasina, they are talking about Her spirit speaking through someone else’s body or a Woman with the Title of Nafanua. Very interesting stuff!

This is a very low percentage of women that actually can do this type of position. Knowledge of the culture. Samoan culture, the how's, when's, why's, who's, your walk. Clothes, More to it but just basics Knowledge of language, language in specific orders. You don't speak the language E, F, G and then speak A, B, C, D, this culture speaks in language of order. Knowledge of Biblical theology. The understanding of Biblical principal and how it applies in every day life. Knowledge of speech. Be charismatic in your speech. Speak correctly and clearly. Be confident in yourself. Knowledge of leadership. Natural born leaders are leaders who are born to lead. You can train women to become leaders but doesn't mean they will be great at it.

I’m a dude. I don’t care what your gender is. If you can be a good chief and effective, heck I don’t care if you are a man or a woman. By the way, Sina’s father, Tamaalelagi, was a murderer. He and his band of murderers killed his cousin Tuiaana Sagate and most of his family so he could hold the Tuiaana title. Salamasina’s royal line was established through treachery and murder by her father. Friday aft - June 10, 2022. Prlcty Lupes.
