歌词

[00:00.20] Major celebrations surround the giving and receiving of these prized assets.
[00:04.76] And since the Toka only occurs once every three or four years,
[00:08.59] everyone jumps at the chance to dress up.
[00:11.28] The dancing goes on for three days.
[00:13.71] Each village attempts to out-dance its neighbours in a display of friendly rivalry.
[00:18.54] You could say this is Strictly Come Dancing, Vanuatu-style.
[00:21.62] In the past, tribal rivalry was far more serious.
[00:25.56] On this island, there were precious few wild animals to hunt.
[00:29.46] Pigs would have been essential protein,
[00:32.30] but if they died, perhaps through disease,
[00:35.54] what else did the islanders have to eat?
[00:38.61] The great-grandparents of these dancers were cannibals.
[00:42.36] Life on an isolated Pacific island is eternally poised on a knife-edge.
[00:47.06] Nowhere is this more apparent than on the single most remote island in the Pacific,
[00:53.05] Easter Island.
[00:54.53] This tiny speck of land has an extraordinary story to tell,
[00:57.92] with new twists turning up still to this day.
[01:00.98]
