The Eamwit are a tribe in Nauru, an island country in the Pacific Ocean with around 13,000 people[1]. Nauruans belong to one of 12 different tribes, each having their own chief[2]. The people are believed to be of Micronesian, Polynesian, and Melanesian descent[3].
The English translation of the word eamwit is small white eel, and the Eamwit tribe name means most important, or largest eel[4]. The Eamwits are a tribe known for the Snake or Eel and for being sly[2]. As of 2017, they have the 2nd largest population of any of the tribes, at 3052, behind only the Iruwa[5].
