Ama (title)

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Originating c. 1400 AD, Ama is a title bestowed upon the paramount chief and commander in war of the district of Safata, situated south of the island of Upolu, within the country of Samoa. It is a hereditary title. The title originated from Lotofaga, a village within the Safata district. Lotofaga is a village that sits in the middle of the Safata Bay. The village has been described as the following: \'Here the surf is sometimes so wild that one cannot sleep because of the roar; therefore it is called Galutatu\'. It is also known as Le-Faga-o-Alii, translated in Samoan as \'The Bay of Chiefs\'. This is in reference to the Ama that resides there. Lotofaga is traditionally known to be a village of refuge for those in need as well as a place to observe and learn of Samoan chief customs and etiquette.
