myths that inspired Maui's your welcome song Part 6 of 6. Maui gave us coconuts by killing an eel and burying its guts and that kill was personal Legend says that Maui's wife Hina ATI lapo was repeatedly harassed by an eel named Tuna Roa every time she would go to the river to fetch water he would sneak up behind her and push her in and when Maui found out about this he got pissed now we made a net and stretched it across the river to act as a kind of strainer and before long he saw tunarola
trapped in it without hesitation Maui pulled to naroa from the river held him down and chopped him up into multiple pieces then he threw those pieces in the river where they transformed into multiple kinds of fish the only piece Maui kept was tunaroa's head which he buried in the dirt and sprouted into a coconut tree so that is the final myth Maui sings about in Moana I guess all that's left for me to say is you're welcome
