Gilbert Henri Cuzent, a French naval physician writing around 1860, noted: "Terii-Taria, vieille reine de Huahine qui, restée sans postérité, a été détrônée il n'y a pas encore longtemps pour faire place à un de ses neveux." or "Terii-Taria, old queen of Huahine who, left without posterity, was dethroned not long ago to make room for one of her nephews." (page 45)
Trying to make sense of what "not long ago" means. What time period was Cuzent on Tahiti? KAVEBEAR ( talk) 20:55, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
