Manana Take was a goddess in the Rapa Nui mythology, the original religion on Easter Island.[1] She was the consort of Era Nuku, the god of the feathers and farming.
Manana Take lived in sky. The Manana once visited earth in the shape of a fish, which was given to the king because of its size and beauty. Recognising the divinity in the fish, all monarchs were thereafter forbidden to swim in the sea.
