Did u know on the Food Fishes of the Marianas poster there's NO CHAMORRO WORD for tuna?? We lost it when the Spanish banned pelagic fishing.

The last galaide' was found by a European sailor in 1714 on Tinian & was used (improperly) by Spanish to transport food from Tinian to Guam

After describing it, the sailor took it apart & burned it. The next Spanish Gov. of Guam arrived & said Chamorros had no seafaring vessels.
