Adaro, Sea spirit divides value.
On the Solomon Islands, an Adaro is a malevolent sea-spirits in the shape of a fish-man, a man with tail fins on his feet and gills behind his ears. He has a horn like a shark's back fin and a pike on his head like a sword fish or saw-fish. It is believed that the Adaro travels along rainbows and kills men by shooting poisonous flying fish at them.
