The need to preserve, perpetuate, and promote the rich Samoan heritage, as reflected in and symbolized by traditional material art forms, cannot be understated. This book endeavors to briefly document the origins of Samoans and their way of life, or fa’a-Samoa. The book also describes the production methods and cultural significance of the traditional art of siapo decoration, weaving of ‘ie toga, and wood carving with the hope that preservation, perpetuation, and promotion of these art forms will allow Samoans to realize their hopes and aspirations of sustained enhancement of their cultural richness.
