BULA! EXPLORING the fascinating FIJI MUSEUM, city of SUVA in FIJI ????️
SUBSCRIBE: - Located in the heart of Suva’s Thurston Gardens, the Fiji Museum holds a remarkable collection, which includes archaeological material dating back 3,700 years and cultural objects representing both Fiji’s indigenous inhabitants and the other communities that have settled in the island group over the past 200 years.
Fiji, a country in the South Pacific, is an archipelago of more than 300 islands. It's famed for rugged landscapes, palm-lined beaches and coral reefs with clear lagoons. Its major islands, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu, contain most of the population. Viti Levu is home to the capital, Suva, a port city with British colonial architecture. The Fiji Museum, in the Victorian-era Thurston Gardens, has ethnographic exhibits.

피지의 역사를 알기 위해 박물관에 가봤다. 이웃 남태평양 국가들과의 전쟁 때 사용된 보트며 전쟁무기가 전시돼 있다. 용맹했던 한 추장이 사용했다는 곤봉이다. 기독교를 배우던 6명의 사람들이 원주민들에게 잡아먹혔다는 이른바 1867년 토마스 베이커의 비극 유품들이다.
당시 희생됐던 사람들을 먹을 때 사용한 포크 이것은 가죽제품이어서 먹지 못했다는 신발이다.

We went to Fiji Immigration in Suva last April 18, 2019 to process my permit here in Fiji. It was a good day even though we were both exhausted from the 5hrs travel from Ba Town to Suva City, we managed to get a positive result from the immigration. We still need to return the next day though because we have to pay for the permit.
The next day after paying my permit, we had our lunch at the mall then decided to visit the Fiji Museum not far from where we are. What happened next will be seen on this video.
Hope you'll enjoy watching.

Fiji Museum - Sights And Activities Scenic Highlights Treasured Culture
This museum offers a great journey into Fiji’s historical and cultural and evolution. To enjoy the exhibits in chronological order, start with the displays behind the ticket counter and
work your way around clockwise. The centre piece is the massive Ratu Finau (1913), Fiji’s last waqa tabus (double-hulled canoe), over 13m long and with an enclosed deck for rough
weather. Other attractions in the main hall include war clubs, a gruesome display about cannibalism and the rudder from The Bounty (of Mutiny fame).The growing influence of other
South Pacific and European cultures is documented in a hall on the other side of the museum shop. It is here that you’ll find the well-chewed, but ultimately inedible, shoe of Thomas
Baker, a Christian missionary eaten for his indiscretions in 1867. Upstairs, a small Indo-Fijian hall chronicles some of the contributions made by the Indian workers and their
descendants who were brought to Fiji in the 1870s as indentured labourers. Also on the same floor is a gallery of beautiful masi by some of Fiji’s finest contemporary artists.The
museum continually undertakes archaeological research and collects and preserves oral traditions. Many of these are published in Domodomo, a quarterly journal on history, language,
culture, art and natural history that is available in the museum’s gift shop. The museum has excellent open days on the last Saturday of every month, with live music, traditional dance
(and sometime firewalkers), poetry, food and craft stalls.After visiting the museum, ponder your new-found knowledge with a wander through the compact but beautiful Thurston
Gardens. The dense conglomeration of native flora and surrounding lawns are less manicured and growing more haphazard with every coup, but it was here that the original village of
Suva once stood. It’s a lovely spot for a picnic – particularly if you camp yourself under one of the grand and stately fig trees.

Cannibalism in Ancient Fiji
From the Global Village Travel Guide and DVD, Islands of the South Pacific. Stock footage available from
Transcript:
For hundreds of years,
the Fijian islands were avoided by explorers such as Captain Cook
who dubbed them the Cannibal Islands.
This grisly reputation held Europeans at bay until the
early 1800s. Today the only vestiges of cannibalism
are found behind glass at the Suva museum.
This display depicts the ancient custom of putting the bones of hated
enemies between the branches of a tree at the edge of the village
as a warning to potential raiders and to keep evil ancestor spirits
away.
These implements are forks used in a ritual
cannibal ceremony. They prevent the fingers
of the diner from touching the flesh of the victim.
Although cannibalism disappeared with the
spread of Christianity, another unusual ritual
practice survives in Fiji today
Fijian President launches “Kamunaga: Story of Tabua” Exhibition at the Fiji Museum.
His Excellency the President Major-General (Ret’d) Jioji Konrote officiated at the launching of the “Kamunaga: Story of Tabua” Exhibition at the Fiji Museum.
President Konrote reminisced his visit to the United Kingdom in October last year to open the largest and most comprehensive exhibition on Fijian art and cultural artefacts – a collection of traditional Fijian artefacts, some of which dated back to the 18th century.
President Konrote commended Professor Steven Hooper and his team for the on-going collaboration between the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts which Professor Hooper leads, the Britain-based Humanities Research Council and the Fiji Museum and the Itaukei Trust Fund for the exhibition.
“The tabua has profound ceremonial and aesthetic value to the iTaukei, embodies many things and manifested in many ways. The exhibition will provide an opportune space for storytelling, maximizing on the transmission of knowledge between generations of Fijians and fostering on appreciation of local history and culture,” President Konrote said.
The exhibition showcased around 30 tabua sourced from various parts of Fiji.
