Les Marquises, l’âme sauvage de la Polynésie – Nuku Hiva – Documentaire voyage – AMP
Among the countless treasures of
French Polynesia, the Marquesas archipelago is undoubtedly the most unique.
Different from Tahiti, the archipelago cultivates its singularity, whether in the
abundant and wild nature of the islands which compose it or in the
Marquesan culture unlike any other. If its inhabitants call it Te Fenua Enata,
“the land of men”, it is out of pride in their country and not to guard it jealously.
They welcome visitors with a smile, happy to make
their islands and culture accessible. Come with us to discover their dance, their
unique traditions that almost disappeared decades ago, but which are today
more resilient and alive than ever. The territory of French Polynesia
is as large as the European continent. In the far north, 1400km from Tahiti,
are the Marquesas, divided between the
northern islands and the southern islands. Nuku Hiva, the largest of all, is
undoubtedly also one of the most captivating. When you approach it by sea, you do
n’t encounter lagoons protected by a coral belt like in Tahiti or Bora-Bora. Here,
as in all the islands of the archipelago, it is sharp ridges and cliffs falling
directly into the ocean that shape the landscape. The spectacular Taoihae Bay, named after the
main village in the Marquesas Islands that it protects, is preceded by two
rocky islands called “Sentinels”. Fishing is, along with copra, one of the island’s main resources.
When the boats return in the early morning, the tuna are cut directly on
the quay before being delivered to customers. An ingenious recycling system is
used to dispose of the waste: the carcasses are thrown to other types of
gluttons who lie in wait around the port. The traditional Marquesan tattoo,
the Patutiki, is not only the most respected throughout the Pacific but
also the most copied internationally. Banned for years by the
first missionaries, it is the symbol of the cultural resilience of the archipelago. In Taiohae, around fifteen tattoo artists
are taught by one of the great specialists in this art, Heretu Tetahiotupa.
“Tattooing is a very important element of Marquesan culture. It is called Patutiki in
Marquesan, and it was something that was practiced by our ancestors, which stopped
in some way due to prohibitions during the 19th century. Despite the bans, it
was still practiced for a long time. To the point where, until the 60s, there were
still old people who were tattooed. After that, it disappeared and so we have. We are currently in a
period of cultural renewal, which began in the 1980s.
But it is true that today, there is a certain, there is often a confusion that is made.
These designs are called Polynesian, tribal or Tahitian tattoos, when in
reality they are Marquesan. Because it was something that
was very codified in ancient times, each pattern had particular locations.
It was included in structures on the body that had functions related to
everyday life, but also body parts. It was considered a magical talisman
in ancient times, the Marquesan tattoo » Patutiki owes its survival largely to
Karl von den Steinen, a German explorer and scholar who, at the end of the 19th century, provided
an immense ethnographic work on the subject. His book The Art of Tattooing in the Marquesas Islands is
currently the only written source on this art. In fact, today, people, when they get
tattooed very often, it is because they want something that is exclusive to them. They
want a tattoo that is different from the others and that will tell their story. This is
the modern approach, whereas in ancient times it was quite the opposite, tattooing had an
inclusive function. It allows the individual to be linked to his family, his tribe, his people,
but even more than to the history of the world. It is time for a break,
a guitar comes out of a bag, the first notes of a powerful
and magnificent song then invade the room. The tools of Patutiki have evolved
over the ages, shark teeth have been transformed into very fine electric styluses
which allow the most sophisticated patterns to be reproduced with precision, and this in good
sanitary conditions with minimal pain. Let’s leave Taoihae and let ourselves be captivated by the beauty of the deep valleys in the center of
the island, covered with lush jungle. Then we move towards the northwest coast, where the volcanic relief
becomes much more rugged. Large canyons descend from the peaks,
the highest of which reaches 1224m above sea level. Because it is difficult to access, this
coast is almost uninhabited. Yet the splendid Motuee Bay is
well worth the effort. Hakaea’s is even more seductive. There are
a few rare bungalows that their owners occupy on weekends, but
they do not disturb this haven of peace in any way. Following the coast to the east, the peaks
of Aakapa form a sharp wall, as intimidating as it is fascinating.
They show us the way to one of the most sacred places on the island, in
the valley overlooking the village of Hatiheu. It took almost 15 years
to restore three archaeological sites: ancient places of habitation,
festivities and religious celebrations. Before the intrusion of European explorers into
the archipelago, the population of Nuku Hiva was estimated at more than 50,000 inhabitants, compared to only 3,000
today. The Marquesans of the time lived away from the coast to protect themselves from
attacks by rival clans as well as from tsunamis. Sacred ceremonies took place on
this platform in the shade of this giant banyan tree. Further down the coast, along
a beautiful black sand beach, Hatiheu is the second most populated village on
the island with only 350 inhabitants. The basalt peaks that serve
as a backdrop to its church look like the remains of a castle from
a fantasy tale. Rounding Point Temoe, we arrive
at a barely inhabited bay, that of Anaho. This time the sand is white, protected from the wind
by the mountainous terrain that surrounds it. Explorer and writer Robert Louis Stevenson,
known for novels such as Treasure Island, took refuge there in 1888 during a storm
and fell under Anaho’s wild charm. Let’s return to Taiohae, where the Kanahau Ori dance school has taken shelter from the rain
to rehearse its upcoming performances. More and more young women are turning
to Tahitian dance rather than Marquesan dance, which is
far too male-dominated for their tastes. Tahitian dances often depict
scenes from daily life around nature, with the key to
very physically demanding movements .
” Women are
mostly sitting, while I prefer to move my body, which belongs to me, I,
as the teacher of xxxx’s class, prefer to share it with other
young women, including children.” It is now the turn of the
Marquesan dance group to take their places. The “Pahu”, these huge drums with a
deep and powerful sound, are out. The singing is not only a musical accompaniment
but is an integral part of the choreography. The Haka, common to several South Pacific countries
, is a more masculine warrior ritual. For these rehearsals there are only drums,
which will be joined by other percussions during the shows. On the other hand, you will
never hear string instruments like in Tahiti. 2 hours by boat south of Nuku Hiva, Ua
Pou is the 3rd largest island in the archipelago. While the other islands had been decimated
by the various epidemics brought by European explorers,
Catholic missionaries from Ua Pou had the idea of imposing a quarantine on the population inside their
churches each time a foreign ship approached. Hakahau, the island’s main town, is
surrounded by a dozen volcanic peaks over 1000m high. When they
are not hidden by clouds, we imagine majestic
dungeons overlooking the bay. This is where Tinirau has set up his
workshop specializing in delicate mother-of- pearl work. Originally from Tahiti,
he fell under the spell of Ua Pou. “The most complicated thing about mother-of-pearl,
I would say more the making, so I say the making because in fact,
sometimes when we make mother-of- pearl jewelry and mother-of-pearl is so fragile,
in fact, that sometimes it can break.” Despite the risk associated with using this
material, the result is astonishingly beautiful. The order book is growing visibly, inflated
in particular by requests for wedding jewelry. “Here in the Marquesas, we are closer to
what we call the Marquesan mana, in fact. That’s why later, in 2017, we came here and I
decided to stay in the Marquesas Islands.” Further down in the village, the Heinua group is
preparing to rehearse a show created by Gaelle Kaiha. This time again,
the song is intimately linked to the choreography.
” In Marquesan dance, it is
much more sung than dance, than Tahitian dance, our dance
depends on the percussion choir” “I find that in Marquesan dance, women are not highlighted enough
, it is more the boys” The whole team still has a few months
to prepare before presenting this dance at the next Marquesas festival, the
major event which brings together all the artists of the archipelago. Few visitors
venture to the beaches of Ua Pou. They do not have the chance to enjoy
this unique atmosphere created by the contrast between the harshness of the volcanic rocks
and the freshness of the turquoise waters. We are in the southeast of
the island in the Hoho’i Valley, in the company of Hiatai. This beekeeper is
also passionate about flower stones. Their name is revealing: these rocks
seem to be encrusted with tiny flowers. By moistening them, Hiatai makes
these patterns appear as if by magic, it is a very difficult stone to carve.
“This stone is found here in Ua Pau, on this island, in this valley called
Hoho’i, the valley of the Flowery Stone” “The stone can crack very easily
with this piece called phonolite, very hard, very solid, but very
easily cracking, let’s say” The valley opens onto a pebble beach where, if you look carefully, you can find
beautiful little flowery stones. Jean Kautai was one of the first to
sculpt this very special rock. His workshop is just a few steps from the beach.
“We’ve been working on it for fifteen years, fifteen years, 20 years now. In the time
of our fathers and our families in the old days, this did not exist. They failed to
work on this stone because the Diamond disc just arrived. And it’s
been fifteen years now. The discs. ” These diamond discs give off
harmful dust, the stone cracks easily, but that doesn’t discourage Jean
from making magnificent Tikis. “It’s our symbol, the symbol of the
Marquesas Islands of all the islands of the Marquesas Islands, Ua Pou is of course
one of these islands, so the Tiki, sometimes they guard the house,
the family. It’s a symbol.” Located 50 km east of Nuku Hiva,
Ua Huka stands out from the rest of Polynesia by the dryness
of its desert expanses. A vast caldera hides the entrance to the
bay where Vaipaee, the capital, is located. This geological peculiarity inspired
sailors to call it “invisible bay.” Ua Huka has experienced numerous volcanic episodes, which lasted significantly longer
than those that appeared on the other islands. Consequently, it is lower than its
sisters, its low relief therefore retains fewer clouds. This explains its much
drier climate than that of its neighbors in the archipelago. The docks of Vaipaee come alive: It’s the
day the cargo ship from Tahiti docks. It comes every two or three weeks and
is eagerly awaited each time. The team from the Vaikua association
is training one last time before the ship’s arrival. Their goal
is to detect the presence of rats in the unloaded cargo in order
to protect the Ua Huka ecosystem. They have just hidden a decoy that these dogs, specially trained for this
task, must then find. President of the
Vaikua i te manu o Ua Huka association “Our priority is, of course, the biosecurity of
our island and we don’t want the black rat to arrive here, so the rat where it comes from is
precisely from outside and from outside. It’s rather the boats, the two schooners, which
often come to take things to the island.” “That is to say that the population lives
off copra here and if a black rat arrives at home and as it mainly eats coconuts,
then we are also afraid for the population. The two endemic bird species,
the ultramarine Lori and the monarch, would also be directly threatened by rats
: this work is therefore doubly essential. The coastal road is only a few
kilometers long and serves only a handful of villages in the south of the island. Just before
Hane, the amazing municipal museum houses testimonies of ancient life such as
sculptures, including different types of tiki. RETAKE More recent works are inspired
by this heritage, even if it is difficult to find young people motivated to
train in this type of traditional craftsmanship. The management of precious woods
used such as To and Miro, which have been overexploited, is also becoming
an issue that is now being taken into account. PODIFodif A little away from the
museum, we find the workshop of Tani, a very talented craftsman. He is employed by
the municipality to entrust him with various types of work such as the creation of tikis which
are offered during the reception of distinguished guests, or even orders to
decorate certain official buildings. In Hokatu, this tiki with a rather
particular nose was discovered a few years ago. The
whale tiki, as it is called here, is considered the protector of fishermen
and has become one of the symbols of the island. A few hundred meters away, Delphine
and her association Hanakatahi, bring together women from the village around crafts. They
sell their creations to passing visitors. Each brings their know-how, often passed down from generation to generation.
The association offers them the opportunity to cultivate a precious social bond but also, in
good months, a small additional income. Hanakatahi Association
“So the coconut inside is like this and outside, like this
you see, they are elongated coconuts. The more the coconut is elongated inside it is like this and
the fibers are long and easy to work. ” “To work the raw material
at home it is, the coconut fiber after there will be the decoration later on it, 4
kinds of teeth to decorate this set. Their showroom brings together the
product of several years of work, which does not fail to amaze visitors. In the same village, Ana is one of the
last “Tahua”, a healer. At 80 years old, she still regularly prepares remedies here
a decoction to treat kidney problems. Traditional healer
“This is a kind of basil with sugar cane and the nut of the bancoulier” in Marquesan
in Fra “we say in Marquesan Aama “I give my remedies, when someone
asks me to prepare a medicine I do not charge for it, I tell them
not to buy, I give it” “There are many people who
also come to learn, mothers to treat their children or
relieve them for their periods. When they come to see me I tell them to learn
so that this knowledge remains alive ” The potion is now ready. OFFSET Modif In Hane, the neighboring village,
Vohi captures and trains wild horses. Ua Huka has long been nicknamed the
horse island, unfortunately this is a little less true since
persistent droughts decimate entire hordes. Vohi is a hunter at heart. He knows all
the valleys like the back of his hand. The mountains where wild pigs hide and of course,
horses, hold no secrets for him. “This is where I come to look for horses,
but also in other places like Haatiki or Namana. But here there is no more water
like in Haatiki or Namana, so we have to go even further into
the mountains and bring them back to the village ” Offset Domesticated horses
are easily recognized. They roam fearlessly in the gardens
and take the opportunity to eat mangoes. Offset This afternoon, Vohi
called on his friend Tani, the sculptor from the museum we met
earlier, to help him train a newcomer. Offset Vohi brings him to the
beach. Naturally optimistic, the trainer is nonetheless worried
about the future of the island’s horses. “Many of our
wild horses have died due to the drought. Here in Hua Uka we
are experiencing a major drought, there is not enough food or water. We
have to take good care of our horses because if we don’t, they will disappear.
Let’s take care of the horses of Hua Uka, otherwise why would we continue to call
this land the horse island?” Offset With Tani’s help, he uses a very special technique to ride the young
wild horse for the first time. “Why am I taking him to the water? First of all,
to protect me, to not break my arm” This is only a first step,
it will take a number of more before making his mount more docile. After a good day’s work,
Vohi likes to climb through the coconut grove to reach the
historic site of Meiaute. Perched high up, with a magnificent
view of the bay, he finds peace and serenity there. Meiaute is the oldest human settlement
in Polynesia, at least among those already discovered by archaeologists. Some
objects found there date back to the 3rd century. “For us, the inhabitants of Ua Huka, this
site is sacred, so we don’t come and do just anything in this place. When we
come here, we must be respectful.” We now head south, towards Hiva Oa, the 2nd largest island in the archipelago,
about 160km from Nuku Hiva. Lush and wooded, It is
more attractive than the northern islands, with its valleys partitioned by steep
ridges. In this majestic setting stands the
island’s main town, Atunoa. It is on its heights that we
find Tuarae Peterano, a craftsman specializing in the manufacture
of immense drums called Pahu. “Before, it wasn’t the Tiki that were
the basis, it was patterns and motifs, perhaps in the family way, or it was
these, or even the artist who made it, but now I put Tiki, like what, it may be the
basis of our culture, the Tikis. After all that, it’s the string attachments to attach the
skin. It’s like an instrument when you make a guitar, really the guitar sounds,
comes from the thickness of the wood and the quality of the wood. At the beginning it’s green wood and
then you have to let it dry when same. Well, when it dries there are a few cracks,
but we can adjust that a little with glue” “this tree is falcata otherwise
I made them into breadfruit the To’u, our endemic tree of the Marquesas, we
get the best sounds from these trees “You have to have the soul, the trunk or not more than
50 cm in diameter and a height of 1.20 to 1.30m, and have a large hole underneath and have
sound outlets like a Marquesan cultural musical instrument that I adapted a little I
did research in museums with the old drums. here we go… I first made
small ones like this, a museum copy.” Crossing the island reveals
vegetation of incredible density. The north coast is nothing but a succession of
bays, each more enchanting than the last. Time seems to have
stopped in these villages where fishing, wild goat hunting and
copra exploitation occupy the majority of the population – Offset The names of these villages of around
forty inhabitants are also a poem: Hanapaaoa or Hanaiapa.
In addition to their enchanting toponymy, they have in common the fact of being surrounded
by superb and untamed nature. Further east, wild goats venture
onto a steep and sparsely inhabited coast. Let us remember that the first occupants of the archipelago
lived far from the coast, to protect themselves not only from attacks by rival clans but also
from tsunamis and their destructive waves. Today we are more pragmatic:
fishermen land on the beach, as in the bay of Motu Ua. Higher up in
the valley, some farms exploit copra, on harvest days,
the coconut husks are burned. We are at Jean’s O’Connor, nicknamed
Zorro, comes from a family of 18 brothers and sisters. Their ancestors arrived
from Ireland 3 generations ago. The nuts are first split to extract the
pulp, which will be dried and then sent by boat to Tahiti to be processed.
“ It’s the only job in the islands of
Polynesia, in the Tuamotou, the Marquesas, the Austral Islands, we make copra, we live off that
, a little Copra, a little Faapu (vegetable garden) we also have to plant: lemon tree, banana tree,
taro then we go fishing, there is fishing. The gesture must be both precise and powerful to expel all the pulp with one stroke of
the blade. Part of the bark will be used as compost
for the vegetable garden. As for the remaining bark, it’s Marysa, Jean’s wife,
who is responsible for burning it. A few more berries Far away, upstream from the
beach, Puamau shelters the mysteries of the pre-European Marquesan civilization. This
archaeological site surrounded by a vast mountain cirque constitutes one of the most important
historical testimonies of this period. Thanks to restoration operations
and excavations carried out in 1991, it is believed that the most likely hypothesis is that
of an 18th century religious sanctuary. Five monumental tikis inhabit it,
the largest measuring 2.67 meters. Offset We return to the center of the island to
meet one of Jean O’Connor’s brothers, Robert, who cultivates 3 hectares of crops
with a dozen head of cattle. “bananas, papaya, grapefruit, lemon.” For the past 2 years, he has also started growing
ginger. It is also time to harvest it. The first results are
encouraging: the rhizome is often found in the kitchen of the archipelago
and sells for a high price in the markets. If humans consume its root, the leaves
of the plant are not lost. “So, to give the young oxen that are tied up like that they have
something to eat every day” In this Garden of Eden, the papayas
are sometimes very tall. But Robert always has a solution to
reach them and pick them. At the end of the afternoon, the cows and bulls,
which in the Marquesas Islands are called “oxen” without distinction of sex,
naturally gather for the meal “from time to time, we sell a little, but most of the time, it’s
to eat, for the family.” The pigs have a special treatment. “So, the fruits, there you go, the
fruits, the leftovers from home” “He likes to be stroked ”
In a Parisian restaurant, you would probably pay a lot to
taste the exotic fruit salad that constitutes the daily menu
of these pigs decidedly very lucky. Here too, a cargo ship arrives from Tahiti every
3 weeks or so, its holds full of goods. For several years,
the shipowner has had the good idea of fitting out half of the ship to bring tourists to
discover the archipelago at the pace of its stopovers. It sometimes takes more than a day to unload the goods and then replace them
with bags of copra. Jean O’Connor was
impatiently waiting for his order. “It’s important, the boat, fortunately
the Aranui also takes animals, otherwise we can’t trade between the
islands, there’s the Aranui, the Taporo which do that, we can put the oxen otherwise we
couldn’t take them to all the islands” Meanwhile, the passengers take advantage of
the day to visit Atuona and its surroundings, in particular the
Calvary cemetery where two illustrious ambassadors of the archipelago are buried: Paul
Gauguin, who died in 1903, and Jacques Brel, in 1978. Both lived on Hiva Oa
and now rest there for eternity. The Marquesans say they are honored by the
presence of these great artists. However, there is so much to discover on these islands,
it would be a shame to reduce them to a cemetery. Once the sharp ridges of Atuona are crossed,
Hanakéé Bay opens up in all its majesty. At the end of the bay, in Taaoa,
young schoolchildren enjoy the swell. But this area is especially renowned for
its wealth of archaeological sites, there are said to be nearly a thousand
ceremonial platforms, most of them buried under the roots
of banana trees, banyan trees or to’u trees. The Tohua Upeke is undoubtedly the best restored. After leaving
the port of Atuona at 4 a.m. aboard his bonito boat, Moeotiu fishes for tuna off
the island of Tahuata, neighbor of Hiva Oa. In the absence of a lagoon, you can make
catches worthy of a deep-sea trawler while remaining close to the coast. There are only a handful of fishermen
equipped with sufficiently robust boats while the waters are full of fish
of sometimes impressive size, yet you have to know where to place your line.
“When I catch a tuna, I look at what it has eaten and that’s where you see where
the tuna comes from, if it is on the shore or offshore, if you see small jacks it is because it is
next to the rocks, if you see there are a lot of shrimp or squid, they are offshore and
it is rather the schools of birds offshore.” After a few hours spent at sea, the boat
returns. This Saturday, he caught 4 tuna and a Tazar. That is quite enough: if he catches
more, he won’t be able to sell them. it’s a good catch just for today
since it’s Saturday yes that’s enough These are magnificent pieces, between 35 and 45
kilos. Moreover, Leo, the owner of the boat, makes no mistake and cuts the tuna
right on the quay, for informed amateurs. Tahuata is the smallest
and most discreet island of the archipelago, it lives in the shadow of its large neighbor
Hiva Oa from which it is only 4km away. A municipal shuttle regularly makes the
crossing using the Bordeaux Canal, a real nightmare for sailors.
Sailboats are particularly victims of its opposing currents
making navigation very rough. At first glance, Tahuata looks like
its big sister but, once you turn to join
Vaitahu, the main village, you discover superb bays sometimes
decorated with breathtaking beaches the breath. From 1595 Tahuata received visits
from the Spanish, the English, the French… a veritable parade that lasted several centuries,
each flock of explorers renaming bays and villages in as many different languages.
The church of Vaitahu, financed by the Vatican, recalls that the first Marquesan mass
was celebrated here by the Spanish in 1595. The small road that leads to Hapatoni
offers a glimpse of idyllic landscapes, where very rare dwellings appear
incongruous in this setting. Hapatoni is known throughout Polynesia, in
this small village sheltered by century-old Tamanu trees live many talented artisans
. Several archaeological remains attest to a significant human presence,
well before the arrival of the first explorers. Heikua is an artist who works with bone and
teeth for an astonishing result. His main difficulty is the supply of
raw materials such as a beautiful sperm whale tooth. Heikua has a predilection for bone,
which must be well cooked beforehand. Beef bone, shells,
swordfish dorsal fins and a little wood. He draws his inspiration from
the symbols of his archipelago. “It’s more Marquesan crosses,
symbols, animals, there are motifs that represent family. A few steps from here, Tauhiro Tehautetua is also a renowned artist
who works with mother-of-pearl, wood and bone. It’s a necklace with a pig’s tooth, it’s
a part with the tooth there and it’s with wood. Tehautehua is not only a sculptor, he is also an excellent dancer who
proudly wears his cultural identity on his body. The Land of Men, this archipelago of
wild beauty never leaves you indifferent, whether it’s its splendid landscapes or
its traditions in full renaissance, they will have imbued our memory with
magnificent memories for a long time, like so many invitations to
come back and continue their discovery

“Explorers” you mean invaders, Colonists. 🤔
Как вы относитесь к традиционным татуировкам, таким как Patutiki? Есть ли у вас личный опыт или история, связанная с татуировками?
