Ari'i-ʻOtare Teriʻi-maeva-rua III Pomare (28 May 1871 – 19 November 1932) was the last Queen of the Tahitian island of Bora Bora from 1873 to 1895.[1]
The second daughter of Prince Tamatoa-a-tu (Tamatoa V), King of Raʻiātea and Tahaʻa and Princess Moe-a-Mai, Ariʻi-ʻOtare became the Queen of Bora Bora on the death of her aunt Princess Teriimaevarua II, Queen of Bora Bora.[2] She married Prince Teri'i Hinoi-a-tua Pomare, chief of Hitia'a in Bora Bora on 9 January 1884 and was divorced in 1887. Ari'i-'Otare produced no children of her own. She adopted her two younger step daughters; Princess Rehu-rehu Tuheiava and Princess Itia Tuheiava.[citation needed] She also adopted and raised her biological nephew Moeterauri "Bimbo" Tetua who was born on 14 September 1916.
Bora Bora was annexed by the French on 17 April 1888,[3] but royal power remained in effect until 1895, when Teriimaevarua III was replaced by a French vice-resident.[4]: 211 She remained the head of the royal house of Bora Bora until her death.[5]
