Maseikula
Maseikula
Fijian chief
Maseikula (pronounced: [maseikulaː]) was a Fijian High Chief. He was a Chief of the island of Nayau.
Maseikula was a son of High Chief Buivaroro and his wife,[1] the High Chiefess Tarau.[2] Maseikula's grandfather was Naosara. He was a progenitor of a prominent Fijian royal house.[3] It is possible that Maseikula was born on the island of Lakeba, where lived his uncle Kalouyalewa.[4] On the other hand, he may have been born on Nayau.
After his father died, Maseikula succeeded him.[5][6] Maseikula married an unknown woman, with whom he had two sons – Vakaoti and Vukinavanua.[7]
Vukinavanua ruled after Maseikula died, while Vakaoti had a title of Sau Mai.
