Many years ago, New Zealand cargo/passenger ships would call in at Pitcairn from the Panama Canal, delivering goods en route. I was on one such ship, and the islanders paddled out with their baskets and carvings for sale, flying fish being very popular. It was, in those days, not so remote. Now, with container ships and air travel being so common, the island is more cut off, and that trade is less. They still seem to cope with what they have and seem content.

In the Pitcairn sexual assault trial of 2004 seven men living on Pitcairn Island faced 55 charges relating to sexual offences against children. The accused men represented a third of the island's male population. All but one of the defendants were found guilty. The remoteness of Pitcairn had shielded the tiny population (47) from outside scrutiny. The islanders had for many decades tolerated what the modern world classifies as sexual assault among the very young children. Police officers in Australia, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom interviewed every women who had lived on Pitcairn. Australian pastor Neville Tosen, who spent two years on Pitcairn, said that on his arrival, he had been taken aback by the conduct of the children. But he had not immediately realised what was happening. "I noticed worrying signs such as inexplicable mood swings," he said. "It took me three months to realise they were being abused." Tosen tried to bring the matter before the Island Council (the legislative body which doubles as the island's court), but was rebuffed. One Councillor told him : "Look, the age of consent has always been ten and it doesn't hurt them." A study of island records confirmed evidence that most girls bore their first child around the age of 12. "I think the girls were conditioned to accept that it was a man's world and once they turned 10, they were eligible," Tosen said. Mothers and grandmothers were resigned to the situation, telling him that their own childhood experience had been the same; they regarded it as just a part of life on Pitcairn. 13 of the original settlers were murdered in fights over women. Pitcairn's 47 inhabitants, almost all of whom are interrelated and inbred, were bitterly divided by the charges against what constituted most of the adult male population. Many of the islanders boycotted the trial. "It's better for me not to know who's charged with what, so that I can still look them in the face as mates," one islander said. "We still have to work together to keep this place going." While many islanders remain fearful that the outcome of the trial could sound the death-knell of the tiny state, others expressed optimism that it could mark a new beginning for Pitcairn. Basically, Pitcairn is a hell hole. 🔥

Not surprising really, though English DNA (i.e. germanic, Anglo Saxon) is less than 20% of the indigenous English population. It is called England as it was conquered by the English, rather than populated by them. England, especially further west, is mostly the original 'British' settlement from Iberia, going back to the end of the last ice age (ref Prof Bryan Sykes, Oxford Uni). The 'Pitkerns' do have Polynesian blood/DNA as well. But the speech is decidedly non Rhotic, so not from Dorset (i.e. Wessex), I suspect the sailors were from the eastern counties of England. The speech sounds a bit Norfolk/Suffolk to me.

Yeah it was pretty horrific how the Mutineers lived and died after they landed there...: / ^^^^^^^^^^^ The Wiki has the correct info.

During the 19th century sailors from US and German Whaling boats anchored off the Island and left a few girls pregnant. Volcanic activity forced the complete evacuation of Pitcairn to Norfolk Island in 1856. The current population are descended for a small percentage who returned. Volcanic activity forced a second elevation to the UK in the 1950's. About half of these people never returned. Pitcairn is also still spoken on Norfolk

@Michal Nazareth What does the video description (which I assume you're referring to) describing the history of Pitcairn Island's settlement, have to do with my comment attempting to describe their accent? Perhaps *you* should sit and think about what you're trying to say instead of babbling incomprehensibly. Then and only then could you possibly be justified in describing *anyone else* as a moron.

The sound went to pieces what happened

Recently visited. Such a beautiful island + so friendly the locals.

When I was in the Merchant Navy, back in the 60s, we anchored off Pitcairn. We were dropping off a missionary. Unfortunately we were not allowed ashore but the islanders came out in lifeboats. We were told , at the time, that Shaw Savill had donated a couple of these boats. True? Anyway the islanders brought out fruit and souvenirs. It was very interesting to talk to them.

Those rock markings are celestial, and play into the role of Maui and the sun. Polynesians were extremely skilled seafarers. It's incredible that today European sailors capture history even in this ocean. The Polynesians conquered every speck in the world's largest ocean. They knew what they were doing.

Got my interest piqued now. Which one is the best would you say?

How beautiful are those carvings

I found the background music drowning out the dialogue and conversation from the islanders, which is disappointing.

What I find fascinating about the picture at 9:11 is that a majority of the symbols that are carved/ drawn into the wall depicted in the drawing are also prevalent in many other societies today. Some of the earliest known writing that is still unreadable. I was watching another video about some ancient stones found in a cave in Illinois with a majority of these exact same symbols. Even the person with their hands in the air. I had to come back and pull this video up because it was the exact same symbols and I wanted to cross reference. Quite amazing...

@@peterk8909 my NZ 🇳🇿 history book says that more recent in depth research suggests that the migration began in Africa 🌍 (maybe North Africa?), travelled across Asia right to the Americas, then back round and across the Pacific via the islands, as far as New Zealand. This makes sense given the amazing similarities in so many of the indigenous people groups in these nations. I have travelled to numerous locations in the Pacific and Asia, and I have encountered many similar aspects of language and culture. 💖 One example is that the Japanese language has a number of similarities to our local Maori language.
