Being of great historical and spiritual importance on Huahine, the marae are scattered everywhere. Marae Manunu is located on the motu, across from the main marae complex in Maeva. Marae Manunu is dedicated to Tane, Huahine’s god of war and fishing. I don’t know the identity of the spathe flowers in the fourth picture, but they certainly are beautiful.
