This documentary explores a fascinating moment in british history, chronicling the HMS Dolphin's 1767 arrival in Tahiti during the age of exploration. The crew's initial violent encounter with the islanders, involving stones versus muskets, eventually gave way to an unusual trade dynamic. The sailors quickly discovered that iron was more valuable than gold to the tahitian women and islanders, allowing them to trade simple items for essential supplies to keep their ships going. #history #tahiti #
