Tupaia

In the Fantastic Four this week we read a book about Tupaia, and we had to write why we think Tupaia should be remembered. I found it hard to write why Tupaia should be remembered. And I found it easy to read the book about Tupaia. Here's why I think Tupaia should be remembered. I think it is very important for new zealanders to now how Tupaia is. Tupaia was a master at navigation. He was also an artist and a priest. His job on the Endeavor was interpreter or translator and an intermediary. On October 8th Cook went to New Zealand without Tupaia. A group performed a haka Cook was so frightened by them, he had them all shot and killed. If Tupaia was there he could have told Cook that they were welcoming him. Tupaia died on 11 of November 1770 of Malaria and disease caused by mosquito. So I think he should be remembered for the things he did and the things he could have proventented.
