New Caledonia - Culture New Caledonia is an overseas territory of France with a total land area of 18,575 sq km and a population of around 200,000. It is located in the in the South Pacific Ocean, east of Australia, New Caledonia has more than 20% of the world's known nickel resources.

New Caledonia has a temperate climate, marked by two seasons : from December to March, hot and humid with moderate rains, average temperature from 25 to 27° C, and from April to November, cool and dry, average temperature from 20 to 23° C. The west coast : Land of great plains where the Niaouli tree rules the bush, land of cattle stations, land of rodeos and stockmen, land of nickel mines and nice beaches.

New Caledonia
Culture
Among the Kanaks, dance has developed into a high art form. The traditional pilou French is the official language, and you'll need to speak some if you venture out of Noumea (where at least some of those working in the tourist industry speak some English). An estimated 27 Kanak languages coexist in New Caledonia, but after being actively discouraged - or at least ignored - by the French, there is no single unifying Kanak language. The clan, not the individual, was the most important element of traditional Kanak culture, and , a code encompassing rites, rituals and social interaction between the clans, is the essential component of Kanak identity today. It also maintains a crucial link with the individual's ancestors. Kanaks are Melanesians, the black people of the Western Pacific with links to Papuans and Australian Aborigines, and call themselves Ti-Va-Ouere , or 'Brothers of the Earth'. New Caledonia's traditional staples are fish, coconut, banana, taro, sweet potato and yam. Lobster, coconut crab, dugong and turtle are also traditional food sources, as is roussette , the local flying fox. Unfortunately, much traditional fare is being superseded by canned and processed goods, although you will still come across the

Datings of rock carvings (petroglyphs), sculptured stone and Lapita pottery put first settlement of the islands at 4000 years ago as part of the great Melanesian migration across the Pacific from Asia.
While the French influence is strong, the Kanaks have retained much of their culture and tradition, particularly in rural areas and on the outer islands.
Kanak daily life is based on closely-knit, extended family units led by chiefs and councils of elders. The people live communally, with no concept of individual land or home ownership. Sharing is important to community well being. Life ceremonies, such as weddings and funerals, are important occasions.
Music and dance are an integral part of the culture. They are used both for ceremony and amusement and include items that have existed for generations as well as those choreographed for special occasions - or created impromptu.
