Presented by KÄlepa Babayan of the ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center and the Polynesian Voyaging Society.
A presentation on the history of deep sea voyaging, exploration, and oceanic wayfinding, the indigenous system of orientation and navigation at sea, and the efforts to use these experiences to revitalize a once dynamic maritime culture by educating through a native world view that teaches through the Hawaiian language and makes connections that explores the symbiotic relationship between land, sea, sky, and people.
