This was the maiden name of his Carolinian mother.<a href="#cite_note-4">[4]</a> In the 1950s and going back to Spanish era in certain cases used Spanish names. During this time and before it the people had three names. This may still be the case today in the 2020s. They had a Spanish Christian name for the individual. The parents decide what name to give them. The second name will be Carolinian. The parents or another relative that's older will decide this name. The third name will be surname also Carolinian. Children are given the surnames of their fathers as of the 1950s but this wasn't always the case. Soon before this children will get either the mother's or father's surname. Brothers usually have different family names. Some men have <a href="/wiki/Nickname" title="Nickname">nicknames</a>, often a joking name that friends use. German personal and last names are possibly used in this community due to German colonial era in the Northern Marianas.<a href="#cite_note-5">[5]</a> On the islands of Saipan and Tinian there are Carolinian or Chamorro families with Japanese surnames.

"Pre-contact" Carolinian-designed pestles, hooks for fishing, and rings made out of shells found on the ground and beneath it show contact between the two groups. They built canoes that would have a small roof. The roof only went over less than half of the canoe. The sides could be different colors. The boat could fit over 9 adults in it.<a href="#cite_note-7">[7]</a> Centuries ago they used sea-lanes based on memorized information from the prior generation.<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> Before colonial times a system called sawei was practiced. The word sawei means Yapese chief, conqueror, tyrant. This involved the Carolinians gathering once every two or three years in Yap. This system may have existed before the year 1600. More on this is discussed in the religion section.

The Spaniards tried to deal with this by quarantining lepers to Saipan and Tinian. These islands were isolated. Spaniards brought Carolinians to these islands to help the hospitals holding the patients with leprosy.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a> Chamorro sargento mayor <a href="/wiki/Luis_de_Torres" title="Luis de Torres">Luís de Torres</a> became an important source for people who wanted information about the Carolinian people. During this time the people built a boat called Waa (canoe). This is a boat built for the sea. They were for transporting cargo and passengers over long distances.<a href="#cite_note-10">[10]</a> Reports of Spanish-Chamorro wars via Chamorro refugees discouraged Carolinians from traveling to the Mariana Islands. These wars were going on during the 1600s. They didn't travel there until Carolinian navigator Luito came to Guam in 1778.<a href="#cite_note-:10-11">[11]</a> Carolinian sailors became very knowledgeable of the Marianas islands and learned that the northern islands were mostly empty of people.<a href="#cite_note-:10-11">[11]</a> In Guam, Carolinians came to Talofofo Bay in 1788. They were on a voyage. The reason why they stopped there was because they wanted iron. This kind of trade had not occurred in over a hundred years in Guam since the military conflicts between Spanish and Chamorros. Guam became popular with Carolinians not only because of the iron but also because of copper and other resources.<a href="#cite_note-:10-11">[11]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Talofofo_Bay_(17420120219).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Talofofo_Bay_%2817420120219%29.jpg/220px-Talofofo_Bay_%2817420120219%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Talofofo_Bay_%2817420120219%29.jpg/330px-Talofofo_Bay_%2817420120219%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/74/Talofofo_Bay_%2817420120219%29.jpg/440px-Talofofo_Bay_%2817420120219%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="3972" data-file-height="2979" /></a><figcaption>Talofofo Bay</figcaption></figure> In the 19th century the Refaluwasch moved from Elato and Satawal islands in the East and West part of the Carolinian islands<a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a> to what is now Northern Mariana Islands.<a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a> Before this event a religious order already in place in the Mariana Islands.

After coming to Saipan they built a village called Arabwal. They tried to live like they did on the islands they left. They also kept up yearly links with their home islands. Right now this area is in American Memorial Park.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> This was not the only village built. The other one Ppiyal Oolang.<a href="#cite_note-17">[17]</a> This area is where Nguschul and his group settled. The villages' sites were chosen because of the sandy beaches and swamp like sites. The sites also enabled made it easy for them to access the ocean through reef passages. They were also chosen because it was fronted by a long sheltered lagoon. The swampy areas east of the beach was useful for taro cultivation. The people wanted to remake the best things of their lives back at their home islands. A group of Carolinians came from Lamotrek and another came from Tametam not long after and joined them. These were not the only Carolinians that continued to come to Marianas.

After fish are caught some of it may be given to the wife of the fisherman's family members as well as others. In the past palu (navigators) brought food from the sea. They were respected. Payúr is a fish that is caught using a poiu (fishing stone). Payúr is Refaluwasch for mackerel scad. Poiu consists of a limestone spherical sinker. Its smoothed into the shape of an egg. Holes are put into it. After this an inverted half coconut shell that's either the same size or a little smaller is connected with a cordage. Half of the coconut is filled with mashed or ground meat from a young coconut. This is similar to churn. This is to draw fish to it. This whole device is tied using a longer cord that's 50 or 60 feet in length. The cord is very long so that the poiu can be lowered into deeper water to feed fish. The poiu is set down on the sea bed before being moved closer to above the water over the course of a month. The Payúr are eventually gathered using a scoop net after getting to the surface. One of the ways they prepare food involves using an uumw, which is a traditional underground oven in which food is roasted. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Language">Language</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Carolinian_people&action=edit&section=31" title="Edit section: Language">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Carolinian_language" title="Carolinian language">Carolinian language</a></div> The Refaluwasch Language is a <a href="/wiki/Chuukic_languages" title="Chuukic languages">Chuukic language</a>.

They would bring materials (offerings) to their "fathers" in exchange for "spiritual protection." One of the other reasons why people brought offerings was because of Yapese magicians.
