Namonuito

Namonuito is a large atoll in the Caroline Islands, part of Chuuk State in the Federated States of Micronesia. Its people took part in the sawei, the system of tribute and exchange that linked the atolls of the central Carolines to the Gagil district of Yap. Like other Carolinian islanders, they were noted for long-distance navigation by canoe.
