Museum Tuesday

Outside of the Castle Memorial Building on the museum property. You will find this stone mounted. It is said to have been from Waiawa and represents a shark or Eel god.
The shark god Kaahupahau and her brother the "smitting tail" Kahi'uka are associated with this area. As with the rest of Puuloa, Pearl Harbor.
Also in the Waiawa area are stories of the Eel Boy Pilimoo. A child that took the form of an eel to protect children that swam in a pool. That had an outlet to the ocean where man-eating sharks would occasionally enter.
