Florentin-Étienne Jaussen, SS.CC., (2 April 1815 – 9 September 1891) was the first bishop of Tahiti and the man who brought the rongorongo script of Easter Island to the world's attention.[1] In the 1860s Bishop Jaussen was responsible for ending the slave raids on Easter Island.
Jaussen was born in Rocles, France.[1] He was Vicar Apostolic of Tahiti and titular bishop of Axieri from 9 May 1848 until 12 February 1884, when he resigned.[1] During this time he went by the name Tepano, the Tahitian pronunciation of Etienne in its original Greek form Stephanos.
