I n this paper we wish to supply a survey of the history of the | Tonga Islands.We shall concentrate mainly on the period 1770-1820.Of the times previous to this period there is but little known, whereas the period af ter 1820 is described extensively in various writings (Farmer, Thomson, Collocott, Gifford).Therefore these parts of Tongan history will be dealt with very briefly.The time between the two dates mentioned above, however, is a confused period, in which a whole series of authorities were involved in a great number of political complications.To our mind the existing studies on this period contain various vague and contradictory notions.We believe that some of these are dealt with conclusively in this paper
