Abstract
On the island of Vava'u in the northern archipelago of the Kingdom of Tonga, Polynesia, the author asked informants to draw a map of their village and later of the island they live on. Combining the drawing strategies used and the representational distortions inferred from the maps, the author arrived at hypotheses about how mental representations of spatial relationships are habitually organized in Tongan minds. The drawing tasks are described in detail.
