Noaʻtau
Noaʻtau is one of the seven districts on the island of Rotuma, a dependency of Fiji. It includes the villages of Kalvaka ʻUtʻutu Matuea Maragteu Fafaisina and Fekeoko.[1]
Noaʻtau is the most-easterly district on the island. Because Rotuma's chiefly system is often (incorrectly) associated with Fijian precepts of chiefdom by Westerners, it is considered the "chiefly" village on the island, because its chiefs are traditionally assigned first service in the Rotuman kava ceremony, ever since their victory for the Wesleyan missionaries' side in the Rotuman Religious Wars of the 19th century.
