    • «b»«i»Tu'i Nayau«/b»«/i» is the «u»title «/u» held by the «u»paramount chief «/u» of the «u»Lau Islands «/u» in «u»Fiji «/u» and is synonymous with the title holders over «u»lordship «/u» of these islands. When translated, «i»Tu'i Nayau«/i» means "Lord of «u»Nayau «/u»", an «u»island «/u» north of «u»Lakeba «/u», the latter accepted by many to be the chiefly island in the Lauan archipelago. Prior to being installed as «i»Tu'i Nayau«/i», the claimant must first be confirmed upon the decision of the noble households making up the «u»Vuanirewa «/u» clan and then installed «u»«i»Sau «/u»«/i» or «u»High Chief «/u» of Lau. Not every «i»Sau«/i» has been installed «i»Tu'i Nayau«/i».
