The island was part of the Kingdom of Tahiti until its annexation by France in 1880, when it was proclaimed a colony of France.

He arrived at the time of the ʻinasi festival, the yearly donation of the First Fruits to the Tuʻi Tonga (the islands' paramount chief) and so received an invitation to the festivities.
