Seeking an answer to why the event occurred the way that it did, The Polynesian Iconoclasm explores the 10 years in the early 19th century during which inhabitants of Tahiti, Hawaii & 15 related societies destroyed or desecrated their temples & god-images. In the aftermath, hundreds of architecturally innovative churches were constructed.
