atua

Yet the word Atua denotes gods who are recognised as ghosts of chiefs, no less than it denotes the supreme existence.

The white man's God they believe to be altogether a different being from their own atua.

When this was done it was taken possession of by the Atua, whose spirit entered it.

On the morrow of the fight at Vaitele, an Atua man discovered a body lying in the bush: he took the head.

With Atua, the other disaffected province, we have been and are on the brink of 406 war.
