King Charles has taken part in a traditional ritual in Samoa, drinking a ceremonial beverage, made from the root of a plant.
He was also declared a "high chief" of the archipelago during his trip to the country.
King Charles and Queen Camilla are on a three-day visit to Samoa ahead of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting, which is being held in the island nation. The monarch is the symbolic head of the Commonwealth.
Commonwealth heads of government are said to be preparing to defy the United Kingdom and agree plans to examine reparatory justice for the transatlantic slave trade. Downing Street has insisted the issue is not on the agenda for the summit.
