Sau (Rotuman King)
''Sau'', (often mistranslated as “King”), refers to the role of spiritual leader in pre-Christian Rotuman society. The title was neither primogenitary nor held for a lifetime, but rather was cycled through the chiefs of each of Rotuma's districts. Overview The position of ''sau'' was primarily tied into Rotuma's pre-Christian fertility cult and the worship of the supreme deity Tagroa Siria. This is reflected in the fact that each reign was generally for the six-month ritual cycle of the Rotuman calendar. At the beginning of each ''saus reign, they would be installed by the '' fakpure'' or secular ruler, and would subsequently be deified for six months, in the polity's hope that the appeasement of the sau, as a proxy for the God on earth, would result in prosperity and peace on the island. There were also instances where the ''sau'' was female, then called ''"sauhani"''. The other major political roles in Rotuman society were the '' fakpure'' and the '' mua''. List of t ...

Sau (band)
Sau was a music group from Catalonia, which rose to fame in the area in the 1990s, being among the first groups to write pop music with Catalan lyrics, known as '' rock català''. The band's two main members were Carles Sabater, singer, and Pep Sala, who played guitar and sometimes keyboard. Sabater's death following a concert in 1999 ended the band's existence.

Edited in 1988 by "Audiovisuals de Sarrià", the album contained the hits "Records d'Irlanda" ("Memories of Ireland") and the song "Deprimit" ("Depressed") which had an appearance on each subsequent album.

Three Star Gods
The Sanxing ()) are the gods of the three celestial bodies considered essential in Chinese astrology and mythology: Jupiter, Ursa Major, and Canopus. Fu, Lu, and Shou (), or Cai, Zi and Shou () are also the embodiments of Fortune ( ''Fu''), presiding over the planet Jupiter, Prosperity (''Lu''), presiding over Mizar (ζ Ursae Majoris), and Longevity ( ''Shou''), presiding over Canopus.

They are sometimes identified with other deities of the Chinese religion or of Taoism. The term is commonly used in Chinese culture to denote the three attributes of a good life. Statues of these three gods are found on the facades of folk religion's temples, ancestral shrines, in homes and many Chinese-owned shops, often on small altars with a glass of water, an orange or othe ...
