Vatea
In
Polynesian mythology,
Vatea is the
first man (son of
Varima-te-Takere), along with his wife
Papa, who gave birth to a calabash which Vatea made into the sky. Alternatively, Papa, a giant
bird, laid an egg which became the island
Hawaii. Vatea and Papa then lived there as the first man and woman.
