Do Hawaiians make tapa?

@@richie3802 yes..i think they call it tapa too...it's from the breadfruit bark ...and they make cloth out of it too

Yes we do, there are some practitioners today who are making kapa in Hawaiʻi.

Tonga ruled only Tonga.

You don't know the history at all. You're probably not even Samoan.
