Tamaʻāiga

Tamaʻāiga (meaning "sons of the families") is a Samoan term used to refer to the four high chiefly titles in the faʻamatai system of the Independent State of Samoa – the Malietoa, Mataʻafa, Tupua Tamasese and Tuimalealiʻifano. American Samoa has its own paramount chiefs, known as Faʻasuaga, who are the sole authority of their districts – the Leʻiato, Faumuina, Mauga, Tuitele, Fuimaono, Sātele, Letuli, and Tui Manuʻa.
