This is ChapterⅠ of a story read by Saimoni Vatu from an old colonial Fijian news publication, Na Mata . The whole story was published in a series that spanned two years from September 1892 to December 1893 and was later republished as a series in 1932. The transcribed oral tradition retells of a migration that goes all the way to Lake Taganyika (in presentday Tanzania), including place names and the connection to Fiji. The story highlights the voyage of the iTaukei patriarch, Lutunasobasoba , on his vessel, the Kaunitoni . One interesting part of the story was the loss of a stone chest containing the tools of trade and the book of languages as they journeyed to Nakauvadra.

This is an oral history about the migration of ancestral heroes Roko Ratu and Roko Dreu from Burebasaga in eastern mainland Viti Levu to Ono, Kadavu, an island located to the south of Fiji. Oral histories not only recount events but also validate old kinship between tribes who may have been geographically separated over generations yet still acknowledge their connection and relationship.

This is an oral history about the migration of the Tui Lovoni and his followers from the island of Ovalau to the island of Onoilau. The inhabitants of Onoilau today consist of different groups of people who had migrated in the pre-colonial era; one such group is the Tui Lovoni and his followers.
