He is speaking his native tongue, "Satawal" which many of the Carolinians from Saipan came from. Not just from there though, we came from many of the outer islands of YAP and outer islands of Chuuk! My family originates from the islands of Pattiw, Houk. So every Carolinian on Saipan's lineage maybe different
from what I know and understand the last time Mau sail to the sea's of chuuk, somewhere in the outer islands that he forgot to bow to when he was passing. (PIAFO) is the name of the island. he slept in and wasn't aware that they already passed the small island and that's where he knew that it was going to be his last sail. The real place where the (Kuling) first landed and taught. he got it all mixed up. I'm pretty sure he know's the truth but he just wont admit it. but the people of The Island of Piafo are The Original sea voyagers. they can even control and manipulate weather the sea, the wind, and of'course all the living creatures in the ocean.. you may think I'm lying but to be honest some one here somewhere knows that this is not B.S. Piafo is where Mau got caught slipping. but I think from hearing his story maybe that's where the kulling really came from. Piafo! that nippach still kills who ever passed that island but didnt show Fairo (tirou) Respect. Rest in Peace Mau Piailug.
teach the hawaiians/polynesian and then they turn around shit on your head.they took all the credit .even in the movie moana they use some of piailug word but never mention his name like the ocean didnt seperate us it conected us something like that.this fucken people are something else especially when they meet up whit rich white men im talking about the polynesian people.
Been seeing a lot of these Debates on weather where this navigation art came from. Isn't polowat part of Chuuk? I don't think it started from there.Chuuks are younger than their older cousins.The only navigators of Micronesia are Yapese&Marshallese.As the rest of the Micronesians lost their navi ways long before Europeans came Again Yapese&Marshallese still kept their traditional arts.But we aren't well known throughout the world.Nor care to share it as its meant to keep it safe guarded.In this case we are honored to have shared this with the Hawaiians which later inspired rest of Polynesia. So apologies to chuukese but it's the truth.This is Yapese navigation.Be grateful you have elder cousins who invented such instruments.Soon enough more of the world will know.
Psychopath - You are right but Mau also learned some parts of navigation from the outer islands of Chuuk specifically Polowat. He learned from my grandpa Hipour but I'm not sure if all but I know some parts he did.
The micronesian navigators became navigators becauss they had to in a sense, I mean it makes sense Pohnpeians and Kosraens wouldnt be known as navigators because they have everything they need on their island you know? Thats why marshallese set out because their resources were scarce.
Kuling sarepwon was umans finest navigator. Thank u mau pialug for letting us know where he died.(penuwenap)--father of onap half uman half somewhere fanapi

@@kr431 their both chuukese outer islands... The new map that the u.s. made had to put satawal under the yap territory....!!!! Pls learn more about the chuuk outer islands history!
Origin story of the feared sea monster that takes boats and sailors down to their cold dark resting places "20,000 leagues" under the sea. From stories I have heard in the islands and stories I have read in books, the sea monster has a scary resemblance to the Kraken. Very interesting
REST IN PEACE BELOVED MAU PIAILUG!! THANK YOU FOR SHARING WITH THE WORLD YOUR LOVE.... THANK YOU FOR PUTTING AN END TO THIS ON-GOING NONSENSE OF A DEBATE BETWEEN POLOWAT AND THEIR TRADITIONAL NAVIGATORS....
Hukuni & Bayside, you should be grateful, that you know Mau learned the art of Traditional Navigation from you island. I am sorry that he didn't say it started on your island, and I am sorry that you have to drag politics into something like this. But then again, Polowat is always about politics and all that crap, so .... What the hell I'm doing here, wasting my time commenting on your comments!! Once again, I am sorry that you can not accept the fact that PULAP started "Palu"
BAYSIDE RECORDING AND HUKUNI OTTO, Why can't the two of you just send your proof, then give it a rest. I know you hate the idea of your island being under another. Please, Let Mau Rest In Peace!! Your history of traditional navigation is very interesting, but you can not change the fact that it didn't start on Polowat!! Gosh, You and your little brains...I know it's especially frustrating for you because once again, Polowat's name has to come in 2nd place, but there's nothing you can't do.
HEY BAYSIDERECORDING DID YOU HEAR THE SONG FROM POLLAP"IFA WEWEN POLLAP,POLLAP PWOPUN PALUW...SO I DONT EVEN KNOW THAT POLOWAT THE FIRST TRADITIONAL NAVIGATION IN PATTIW AND I DONT EVEN KNOW RAPWI...HOLY CRAP!!! DONT MAKE UP YOUR MIND...
thanks mau to let the whole world know how and where traditional navigation first started...POLLAP OR PULAP DA FIRST NAVIGATION HISTORY...THANK YOU SO MUCH, WE LOVE AND WE PRAY FOR YOU..
@baysiderecording Your talk is bigger than tour bitw. Much words and no proof. Are you even a islander? We know our history. Sad part is you say this and that and still havent sent me any proof.
hrmm interesting story,however I hate to say this but the people of the Marshall Islands didn't all die out after the great battle with this kuling or in my native tongue,"koleej"... this story coincides with the ones we have in the Marshall Islands therefore it has some elements of truth... it's true this kuling or koleej was a woman and she was from the Marshall Islands to be exact she was from Namdik Atoll one of the southern islands of the Marshalls, brithplace of navigation in the Marshalls
Master Navigator Rapwii of Polowat challenged this debate in his up-coming video by telling a history that is in complete contrast to that of Mau's. But the truth remains, and that is, Mau was taught and ordained as a Master Navigator on Polowat. Not on Pollap, or by any Pollapese navigator by any means.
Mau was taught and ordained as a "pwo" by one of Polowat's best, Angora. He, in turn, fabricated his story by lying to the public at the urge of Lambert Lokopwe, a master manipulator, that he, Mau, was taught and ordained as a "pwo" in the art of traditional navigation on Pollap. Regarding the history of navigation, a debate is underway as to its true history & origination.
