[00:03.65]Human history across most of the South Pacific
[00:07.04]Dates back less than 2,000 years.
[00:11.54]By comparison, animal colonisers first arrived on these shores
[00:15.58]over 30 million years ago.
[00:19.28]Yet by the 12th century
[00:20.94]people had colonised almost every habitable piece of land.
[00:30.42]Surrounded by water
[00:31.95]the ocean became embedded in their culture -
[00:36.06]sometimes in surprising ways.
[00:48.31]In the Banks Islands, women use the sea to make music.
[00:56.95]And their songs celebrate the creatures that live in it.
[01:06.48]No matter where people settled in the South Pacific
[01:09.67]Their survival depended on a deep understanding
[01:12.36]of the ocean and its wildlife.
[01:30.29]And there's one ocean event
[01:31.87]that has featured in the Pacific islanders' calendar
[01:34.28]since they first arrived here.
