[edit] Pōmare II in Turnbull

Turnbull: "A Voyage Round the World: In the Years 1800..." gives his name during the regency of Pōmare I ("Pomarre") as "Otoo" (O Tū); as this was also used for P. I it might be that "Pōmare II" was not adopted until his father's death. Turnbull gives also some details on the king's emerging alcoholism, etc. Dysmorodrepanis 11:41, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
