 Laufakanaa also brought a special fishing net with him.This typical Ata-net was used by the islanders on special occasions, as when they went fishing for the Tui Tonga.As well, the "putalinga" (a kind of plantain), the "sī" (ti (plant)), the "ngū-ata" and "tua-ata" yams were brought down from the sky by Laufakanaa and first grew on Ata, before they spread to the other islands.
