- Synopsis
- Bellona Island is a Polynesian outlier in the Solomon Islands where Christianity did not supplant indigenous religion until 1938. Monberg began work in 1958, when old people who remembered the religion still lived; his purpose was to study and document the traditional religion, and in so doing he has contributed a detailed descriptive ethnography to Polynesian scholarship.
