Taravai is about 1.5 km southwest of Mangareva and about 300 m north of the island of Angakauitai. Off its eastern shore lies the tiny rock Îlot Motu-o-ari. The village named Agonoko is located near the main bay on the island's eastern shore. It has a population of 9 ({{As of|2012|lc=y}}). Former villages were Aga-nui (northwest) and Agakau-i-uta (southeast).[2] The Onemea archaeological site suggests sporadic occupation of the island around AD 950 with a possible continuous settlement since the 13th century.[3] Before the conversion to Christianity, the king of Taravai was a vassal to the king of Rikitea in Mangareva.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Population|url=http://www.ispf.pf/bases/Recensements/2012/Donnees_detaillees.aspx|website=Institut de la statistique de la Polynésie française|accessdate=14 October 2014}} 2. ^Goodbye Gambiers 3. ^The Onemea site (Taravai Island, Mangareva) and the human colonization of Southeastern Polynesia.
