This is the "back" of the Marae Aho-o-Mahine,
one of the largest and most respected ancient religious site on Moorea. The
marea are rectangles paved with rock, with a low wall surrounding the paved
area, and for the more significant ones these "tiered" areas in
the back which were the dias for the more important members of the clans.
Notice the fresh leighs on the dias, recent offerings, showing some continuing
reliance on the traditional religion.
