<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My wife and I had some spare adult time again and couldn't help but return to <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2015/11/maui-o-kama.html" target="_blank">Maui</a>. We headed straight to Lahaina and ended up spending the whole day there. Aside from hunting for poke and hanging out at Maui Brewing. I found myself back on the shores of Lahaina soaking me feet where the fresh water of Kaua'ula meet the ocean.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I actually wanted to see the archaeological work currently being done at <a href="http://www.mokuula.com/" target="_blank">Moku'ula</a>. They are digging pits to locate the supporting walls of Moku Hinia fishpond and the island that it surrounded, Moku'ula. Sadly I arrived when there was no work being done and that entire area that is preserved as Moku'ula is now surrounded by a gate. Most likely to keep the digs undisturbed and so that no one wonders in and falls into a hole.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The good thing is that I was able to see Mr Ke'eaumoku Kapu again! This time he was with his extended family and friends at Aikane O Maui next to Moku'ula. I hung out for a few hours since he invited us to attend his weekly class on Thursday night. It was pretty awesome and reminded me of the class I try to attend weekly back on Oahu with Kumu Kaipo'i. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">My wife was with me and she was a little nervous since she's never been to a meeting like this before. Especially when we had to do our own introduction in this way:</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">On this night Mr Kapu was focusing on the importance of keeping the knowledge of Lahaina alive. Everyone there had a connection with Lahaina and he wanted everyone to be the next generation to share the truths about this important district. He shared a PowerPoint presentation with the ancient names of the areas within Lahaina.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #454545; font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; text-align: start;">Mr. Kapu says Lele O Leina was the old name for "Lahaina" as a leaping place. Similar to those found on other islands where the souls of the dead drift off to their aumakua or wonder into eternity. On Oahu we have Kaena Point and Leinono or Leilono at Red Hill, Moanalua. Even Aotearoa has a Cape Reinga, being on the opposite side of Hawaii's leaping places. Instead on the northern most point of New Zealand. As if they traveled vise versa in the afterlife...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">The next day we headed up to the Kula way to pick strawberries and taste goat cheese. After having lunch at Ulupalakua Ranch, we finally headed to Hana via "the back way". I have to admit that I had some anxiety leading up to this drive and was fearing for the worse. The normal Hana Hwy. route is already a challenge for most (most passengers that ride with me, my wife more than likely).</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I gained an attraction to this route because of a speech I heard on Bishop Museum's YouTube account from<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghf30ulXryI" target="_blank"> Pat Kirch</a>. That in turn got me to read his book, "Kuaaina Kahiko: Life and Land in Ancient Kahikinui, Maui." All of this came about while delving back into Mo'ikeha and La'amaikahiki research from my last few blog entries. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">You see La'a did come to Hawaii and when he left. He is said to have came by the way of Maui and Kaho'olawe. Possibly establishing signs of navigation back to Kahiki. Such as a Pānānā, sighting wall facing the ocean with a notch in it. This notch lines up with a pokahu near the shore and that in turn lines up with the southern cross in the night sky. As a guide to follow south by sea to the homeland of La'a. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Another phrase that Pat Kirch mentions is an old proverb by Pukui,"when the wili wili blooms the sharks bite." Kirch relates this to the collecting of the ho'okupu offering being ready to give to the chiefs during the makahiki. Otherwise there would be severe punishment to the people of the entire ahupua'a . In Kahikinui the taxed offering to the chiefs would have been uala, sweet potato. Which was very wisely farmed in such a dry arid land during ancient times.</span></div>

As it will drop their leaves just before winter. A strange connection with La'a is that at Hawea Heiau in east Oahu. There actually was an old wiliwili tree similar to the size of these. La'a is said to have brought the drum Hawea from Kahiki which eventually was kept at Hawea Heiau...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Sadly I could not find the opportunity to stop and search around in Kahikinui because of the narrow roads. By the time I pulled over to look at the scenery we were already nearing Kaupo. I stopped at a little lunch truck selling coffee and snacks. I asked the two local women if they knew any mo'olelo of Kahikinui and they suggested that I contact Hawaiian Homelands for permission to visit some of the wahi pana there. One of them knew of Kirch's book and the pānānā</span><span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> wall.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I woke up early with the first rays of light and told my wife I has going to hike to the top of Ka'uiki Hill, and left her in bed since I wasn't sure what to expect out of the hike. The lovely lady we were staying with grew up in Hana, and told me exactly how to get to the top, and how in the old days one of the fishermen would hold out a flag to let the town know the fish where in the bay, like a school akule. She also mentioned that during the war there was a lookout stationed on top of the hill and he had a very large dog that could be seen from her house.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">When I eventually got up to the top of the hill I was a little let down because there were absolutely no signs that pointed out to me that reflected its ancient and glorious past.

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Story One:</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Some time during the 13th century...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">La'amaikahiki son of Mo'ikeha during the voyaging era. His father Mo'ikeha was the second of three grandsons of the first ruler of Oahu, Maweke. The eldest, Kumuhonua inherited what is now the Honolulu district of the island. The other two, Moikeha and Olopana had rebelled during an ocean battle with their older brother but lost and were banished from their birth island. Then settled in Waipio, Big Island Hawaii. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Maweke or Olopana (depending on the storyteller) married Lu'ukia, a daughter of a chief that let the two brothers live in Waipio, because they were distant relatives from an earlier voyager. Bad weather, flooding, and landslides caused them to leave Waipio and return to their homeland in Tahiti with Lu'ukia. She was shared as a wife of both Olopana and Mo'ikeha. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">A Tahiti chief, Mua lusted for Lu'ukia and created a rumor that Mo'ikeha was talking bad about her. She believed Mua and was shamed. So she had her private parts covered in tight cordage by her attendants. Like a chastity belt. So that Mo'ikeha could not have sex with her. Instead of fighting with her, he chose to leave Tahiti and return to Hawaii again. Leaving his brother and his wife. He also left his son from another Tahitian woman, La'a. When he could no longer see his house pole from the ocean, he is said to have chose to forget everything he left behind.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">After stopping off at every island in Hawaii and leaving members of his crew on each. To symbolically attach them to place names on each island. Mo'ikeha settled in Kauai and married two daughters of the chief of Wailua, Puna. Mo'ikeha became ali'i of Kauai after the death of Puna. He had more sons, the youngest being Kila. When Mo'ikeha was very old, he missed his son La'a and requested for Kila to go and bring him back before Mo'ikeha died. Kila sailed to Tahiti and had the lying chief Mua that caused his father to leave, killed. Then brought La'a back from Tahiti (Kahiki as pronounced in Hawaii), which explains his name La'amaikahiki La'a-From-Tahiti.La'a heard stories of Oahu being the most fertile island with many fishponds.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">La'amaikahiki arrived to Oahu first. Offshore of Hanauma Bay, a man living there named Ha'ikamalama heard chants from the sea and drumming coming from La'a's voyaging canoe. While raised in Tahihi La'a learned about the hula and the musical instruments used for it during different heiau traditions than that of Hawaii. Ha'ikamalama followed the canoe by land. First to Makapuu and then to Kaneohe Bay. All the while listening and learning the melodies from the sounds on the canoe.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Once La'a came to land inside of Kaneohe Bay. Ha'ikamalama ran to his canoe offshore and beat the same songs with his finger tips on his own chest. He also knew La'a and his crew by name because of the chants they sung at sea. La'a was so amazed that he left sands that brought from Tahiti at the exact spot he landed. Thus giving the place name as The Sands of La'a, Na One A La'a!</span></div>

<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Story two</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"It was in January, 1737, that the two hosts (Alapai and Peleiohoalani) met, splendidly dressed in cloaks of bird feathers and in helmet-shaped head coverings beautifully decorated with feathers of birds. Red feather cloaks were seen from all sides, both chiefs were attired in a way to aspire admiration and awe, and the day was one of rejoicing as that of the ending of a dreadful conflict. So it was that Peleioholani and Alapai met at Naonealaa in Kaneohe. The canoes were lined up from Ki'i at Mokapu to Naonealaa and there on the shore line they remained, Alapai alone going on shore. The chiefs of Oahu and Kauai and the fighting men and the country people remained inland, the chief Peleioholani alone advancing. Between the two chiefs stood the counselor. Naili first addressed Peleioholani and said, "When you and Alapai meet, if he embraces and kisses you let Alapai put his arms below yours, lest he gain the victory over you. " This is therefore to this day the practice of the bone-breaking wrestlers at Kapua and Naonealaa. Alapai declared an end of war with all things as they were before, the chiefs of Maui and Molokai to be at peace with those of Oahu and Kauai; so also those of Hawaii. Thus ended the meeting of Peleioholani with Alapai. - Historian S.M. Kamakau</span></div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The meeting of Peleioholani and Alapainui, which ended a war that would have engulfed the all kingdoms of the Hawaiian islands. Was quelled because the young chiefs Kalaniopuu and Keoua were on Alapainui's side but also legitimate sons of Peleioholani.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The two rulers met again during a failed uprising against Kamehameha Nui on Maui. As they both supported different sides, and again they both made peace and withdrew from battle.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There was a free event this past Sunday hosted at OHA's, Na Lama Kukui off of Nimitz Hwy. Formally Gentry Design Center. There still are a few design offices there but some of it has been converted to OHA's Honolulu headquarters. Their reception area is pretty nice showing all monarchs from Kamehameha to Liliuokalani framed on the wall. The BigAss Fan Co. Haiku fans are some big dollar examples of fans there. I'm sure a nearby interior designer made some good money on with that sale. I myself would possibly have recommended a Monte Carlo Minimalist Fan or Minka Aire Artemis but hey, no one asks me!</span></div>

Because he was a little fat and then Kauhi attempted to run a dagger through the back of Maka'ioulu's neck. Pupuka, grandfather of Pi'ilani. Threw spear at the bidding of Maka'ioulu and he dodged it just as it approached and it stuck Kauhi'koako'a in the abdomen. But the eight had to flee so they could not sacrifice the first victim of war. Some say this is why the Oahu forces lost the war. The leader pictured in front was said to have been a son of the Oahu chief and actually escaped to Kauai during the war and changed his name. This enabled his lineage and the Oahu bloodline to increase into the future. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This would come full circle one day when a random person at a convention came to stare at this painting . The person knew each of the these warriors names and also shared that he was related to the leader. The most shocking part was that the image chosen was an exact resemblance to this person's grandfather. Brooke told me this kind of thing has happened with his pieces more than once...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here are the eight. Notice how Brooke painted them with traditional Oahu Lei Niho Palaoa. Not in the more popular hook style whale tooth from the Hawaii and Maui island royalty...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Last week my wife and I decided to take a quick retreat to Maui for some relaxation. Of course knowing me, I could not simply sit back with all of the wonderful wahi pana around the island. This is my second visit since starting my interest in Hawaiian history. Here is a link to my first visit parts <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2013/04/maui-part-one.html" target="_blank">one</a> and<a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2013/04/maui-part-two.html" target="_blank"> two</a>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ke'eaumoku Kapu is a chief, which I think he mentioned being related to the Ka'u district chiefs and to Pi'ilani on either side of his family. He participates and is a current chief at events held at Pu'ukohola Heiau in the Kona district on the Hawaii island. He told us about a sham battle that is held yearly during a commemoration event that if I'm not mistaken is during November? Anyhow, he battled a rival chief at the traditional game of wrestling and each of the two participants walked away with a broken rib and the other a broken finger. There are youtube clips of this sham battle recreating how wars were fought between ko'ako'a warriors of rival districts. Spears are thrown and although they are padded at the tip. Sometimes the fighting gets serious and people leave scared, literally. Sounds like a great scar with a story to have though!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Moku'ula is on the way to be revitalized. Even having it's own preservation foundation. But the direction the state tends to take revitalization to is to the natural level. To take it to the level of a wildlife preserve would be to ignore the rich history of the people that made the land sustainable and revered.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After leaving the company of Mr. Kapu and having some refreshments at Maui Brewing Co. I recalled something he mentioned earlier. He said that they do walks around the island like that of the makahiki festival. But he also mentioned that he was a part of a group that came to revitalize Keka'a Point in Ka'anapali. More specifically Kahekili's Leap. Not to be mistaken with the same one on Lana'i.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This leap was no joke with a drop of what seemed like four or five stories high. Mr. Kapu mentioned that the group he was in had about 15 participants actually taking the jump off the cliff. This is a slight hill behind the Sheraton. There is no parking so I had to have my wife drop me off and wait in the car while I checked it out. The group did pule to reinvigorate the site here. He hopes it will be opened to native groups to be taken back as a living wahi pana.</span></div>

Fled after being disposed by the Oahu council of chiefs resulting in Mailikukahi being the first chief to be voted into power from the secondary Mo'ikeha line of Maweke. Later Kawiwi would also be the last refuge for the last rebellion of the Ewa chiefs against foreign rule at the leadership of Kahekili II. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There are a few other fortified hills and even Maui had another one for the rulers at Lahaina at Kahili, near Lahainaluna.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There were many battles fought for control of this hill by the chiefs of Maui and Hawaii islands.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The first mentioned was during the battle for power between the two sons of Piilani. Lono a Piilani who was the elder and Kiha a Piilani the younger raised on Oahu and returning only to be abused and was denied rule beside his brother. Kiha wed the daughter of the ruling chief of Hana, Ho'olaemakua. After being denied lands around Hana including Ka'uiki. Kiha went to ask for help with his sister Pi'ikea a Piilani who was married to the ruler of Hawaii, Umi a Liloa.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A massive fleet of canoes were built and within a couple of years Kiha returned to Hana with a large army led by Umi. They had trouble landing ashore at first because of the fighting ability of the Hana chief Ho'olae makua and the use of his skilled throwers of Ka'eleku using smooth 'ala' stones of Waika'ahiki.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">At night Ho'olae used another cunning tactic and used a wooden image named Kawalaki'i. It was large wooden model in the shape of a very imposing man. Dressed in war apparel and holding a large club it was brought out and set at the top of the only ladder leading to the top of Kauiki Hill. Then it was removed in the morning before fighting began again and before any lighting could make it out to the enemy as a ruse.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One of the adopted sons of Umi, Pi'imaiwa'a realized that this large warrior was not coming out to fight during the day and thought that it could be a trick. No enemy could approach the hill during the day because of the excellent stone sling throwers guarding the hill. So at night he crept up the ladder and struck the wooden model. It did not move no matter what angle he attacked from. Finally drawing his spear Kahu'elepo, he struck straight at it and it made a thud like sound. Then he said, "the fortress shall be destroyed"...</span></div>

I attempted to climb the near vertical cliff, but with only slippers on and my wife waiting back at the harbor. I felt reluctant to go any further and risk falling.

Hopefully I will get another chance to visit this sacred place with a local guide that will show me the respectful way to approach this site.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; text-align: center;">The next event on Ka'uiki mentioned by Kamakau is when Ke'eaumoku comes here to seek refuge with his wife, Namahana. The high cheifess and widow of Kamehamehanui. Ke'eaumoku rebelled against Kalaniopu'u and after the battle of Pohaku O Mane'O that was an attack on Ke'eaumoku's fort on Hawaii island. He fled with his mother Kuma'aimoku and the Maui cheifs accepted him because they were related. But when he made a wife of Namahana he angered Kahekili II. He was caught up in a battle against Kahekili during the battle of Kalae'ili'ili and fled to Molokai but Kahekili pursued him and the battle of Kalauonakukui commenced. Nevertheless Ke'eaumoku was still a high ranking chief and although in bad relations with two of the most powerful monarchs of his time. He still held sway with those that acknowledged his rank and family ties. Therefore he and his family was accepted up the step path to the stronghold of Ka'uiki. Then being held by Hawaii Island forces under Mahihelelima. During his time there Ke'eaumoku and Namahana brought Ka'ahumanu into this world.</span><br>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">At the year 1781 Kahekili learned of Kalani'opu'u's death and was determined to take back Ka'uiki hill and the Hana district from the Hawaii forces and the Maui factions that joined them. That mighty hill was out of his grasp almost half a century.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kahekili II divided his army and they came marching from the Ko'olau side and from Kaupo. Because of the defense of the fortress and their abundance of provisions. The hill could not be taken even after a year of fighting. Finally Kahekili II seeked the help from an old man named Kula'ahola of Oleawa.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kamakau mentions in his writings that Ka'uiki hill was taken by Umi because the guards fell asleep. Peleioholani was simply given Ka'uiki because the occupants surrendered. In ancient times Kahikopawa took the hill and so did Kahikoleiulu. Although the accounts of how it was done was not preserved even into the time of Kamakau.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Anyhow, Kula'ahola was found and he said,"...Today Ka'uiki seems to us a strong fortress, but from this day it will be as if leveled to earth and no longer a fortified place. Anyone can climb it... The fortress Ka'uiki depends on its water supply. Cut that off and Ka'uiki will surrender for want of water."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">So began the cutting off of the streams and springs supplying water for the fortress. Then one of the most dreadful slaughters ever witnessed by people of that era commenced. This was called the battle of Kaumupiko'a</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Nae'ole and Mahihelelima are said to have been the only ones to escape to Hawaii island from canoes lowered from the hill. Although the later was killed at Makapala, Kohala.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sometime after the battle of Kepaniwai, in which Kalanikupule the son of Kahekili II was routed by Kamehameha and his cannon and fled through Iao Valley and escaped to Oahu. Ka'eokulani a brother of Kahekili II and ruler of Kauai through marriage with Kamakahelei, father of Kaumuali'i the last Mo'i of the Kauai line. He set off to Oahu with a foreign gunner known as Mare Amara, Kamehamehanui's son Pe'ape'a, his counsulers, cheifs, paddlers, and even his man eating dogs. He convinced Kahekili II to make war on Hawaii island. They left Kalanikupule in charge of Oahu and they sailed first to Molokai.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Landing where Kamehameha's adviser Ke'eaumoku once lived with Namahana. He set his followers from Kauai to take over the land at Waiehu. They then made a tour of the north end of Maui and Ka'eo climbed the hill of Ka'uiki and twirled his weapon, Kamo'olehua. Then motioned it into the sky as if he was expecting to touch the sky on Ka'uiki. Kamakau's book has a reference that may elude to what Ka'eo meant by this.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The famous demi-god Maui has many superhuman deeds throughout the Pacific. One is that he stood on Ka'uiki Hill and separated the sky and earth allowing living things to grow upwards.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ka'eo realizes that the sky is not low on Ka'uiki and his weapon cannot touch it. He sees this as a sign and fears that he may not be able to defeat Kamehameha. Nonetheless the battle brought to Hawaii island and the ravaging of Waipio and of the sacred places within occurred.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After the battles Kahekili II and Ka'eo returned to Hana and Pe'ape'a was residing on Ka'uiki hill. Pe'ape'a, a great man of stature said to be able to pull trees out of the ground. Was killed in a mishap when he fired a gun on the hill and a spark fell on a house containing the gun powder. An explosion took place that killed the son of Kamehamehanui.</span></div>

There is a little red rock bay that is possibly one of the most beautiful places I have ever been to in Hawaii. Probably my new favorite beach as far as views go. I even ate a couple of opihi on the red rocks on the far side of the bay. Just to see if there was more iron content in them!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The best part and one of the most magical scenes I've ever witnessed was this Koa'e bird nesting in a cave and periodically coming out to check if there were any fish to be caught in the sea. At one point I saw the Koa'e and many Iwa birds higher up in the sky. I could not capture that image and I'm sorry that my lens could not get a closer look for you. Just know that I could have sat there all day watching the birds and soaking in the view. The trail leading to this side of the hill is not too dangerous. Just enough to keep a large crowd from gathering at the beach...</span></div>

The larger stones form the outer sections and lock it in relation to the shape it meets the one next to it. While smaller pohaku form the loose mortar that hold in place the large stones by filling the spaces between. The tighter and less gaps in between rocks the stronger the structure.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Michael Kolb studied the area in the 80's and analyzed that the heiau structure we see today was built in four phases over several generations of rulers. The first was a small enclosure in what is now the northwest corner of the complex. The second phase filled in a gully in the middle of two ancient lava flows and the builders made stepped walls (I counted seven) finally leading up to a height of 13 meters. The third phase is a superimposed structure in the eastern ridge following the shape of the lava flow. The fourth was finally a leveling of the entire structure. </span></div>

I shouldn't have been so suprized though because there are many many people throughout the world with connections to Hawaii. All I can say is although I was the first to yell when the dancing began, mine's was not the only "cheehoo" in the crowd.</span></div>

They were actually bundled in traditional ways. There was only enough to make one little hair piece in the size of a small boutonniere. It gave one the appreciation to imagine making thousands of them to form a Kahili or Ahu'ula in the times of old.</span></div>

Here's Chad and I checking out some of the books they had for sale. Of course you can borrow most of those from the public library back at home. I ended up buying a commemorative shirt of the event.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Marques began with the types of feathers collected from birds for traditional featherwork. The I'iwi and 'Apapane were chosen to be used for their red feathers and the 'o'o and mamo were caught for their yellow feathers as well as the o'o black feathers. The kinolau of these birds were related to both Ku and Lono. So were the woven basket type framing, 'Ie'ie used in Mahiole helmets and Olona in 'Ahu'ula capes. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Marques stated something amazing to realize. That each bundle of feather work had a chant or prayer into each weave. So aside from the maker creating hundreds if not thousands of small bundles to be woven in. There were also the same amount of prayers for the particular person that the precious article was being carefully crafted for.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">These birds were captured by the cunning Kiamanu for their feathers up high in the native ohia forests. With a sticky gum that would trap the legs on a branch or with large nets that would ensnare the birds in flight.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"> Shad Kane once told me a touching story of how the Kiamanu were one of the only ranks in ancient Hawaiian society to be able to converse with both commoners (because that essentially they were) and ali'i. They were also skilled at climbing to high precipices to reach the dwelling of certain birds. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Kiamanu of Kamhemeha were said to have been given the task to take down the defensive cannons at the Pali Notches during the Battle of Nuuanu on Oahu. Because of their climbing skill</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">This image is a small portion of, ka'ei kapu o Liloa. A scarf that is said to have been associated with Chief Liloa. The famous Ali'i and ruler of the Moku of Hawaii Island. Kamakau starts his book of Ruling Ali'i of Hawaii with Liloa's era. Liloa fathered his son Umi from a beautiful commoner he met at a bathing place during one of his escapades. He left her relics of his nobility and requested to name a boy Umi, in order for his son Umi to be identified by him when he was of age. Umi later confronted Liloa by entering his sacred living space in Waipio and before being killed by Liloa's guards. He sat on Liloa's lap and exclaimed that he was Umi his long lost son. They shared a touching reunion. Through Umi's own perils he eventually inherited Umi's kingdom and rule of Hawaii island. Liloa becoming the patriarch of Hawaii Chiefs from Waipio that connected them to the ancients. Liloa's grandmother and his wife's mother were of high ranking Oahu decent from the Ewa district.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Liloa's scarf was not on display at this event. It remains behind closed doors at Bishop Museum. It is unlike any other featherwork from ancient times. As it is feathered on both sides . At the ends of the scarf are pictured teeth. Both human and fish teeth, the later being specifically from the Hilu fish. The hilu fish is said t have been used because hilu could signify a cared for beloved child.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">Mo'olelo touched on to science once with this scarf of Liloa. Bishop Museum allowed some of the feathers to be carbon dated and the results coordinated with the estimated dates of Liloa's lifetime in the 1500s...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace;">I was more interested in the realization of stories I knew through visualization of the cherished character's preserved artifacts. There were feather lei on display and more modern designed capes and hats that looked more like British coats. I wish I could have captured images of them as well. But I didn't have a lot of time to be at the museum and my phone ran out of batteries. In fact, most of these pictures were taken with my wife's iphone4 and when her phone drained I asked my cousin to send me the pics she took that day. Big mahalo to Marge and Chad Wong, some of my family in the bay!</span></div>

The featherwork are very fragile and the fact that they should and will remain behind closed doors in protected environments is a good thing. On Oahu you can visit the Bishop Museum to see some of them still on display. Umi's ulu maika stone is there in a display case on the second floor balcony at Hawaiian Hall. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I was attracted to the ahupua'a of Punalu'u because of the book, Sites Of Oahu. The map fold out of the Ko'olauloa District shows a more dense gathering of sites than other ahupua'a near by. I wanted to visit them all and try to figure out why. Although this story that I shared might explain why, if just during that period in time.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">During my visit I came across a KSBE property sign across the street and later read that they manage most of the land in the district from the the main road and up into the mountains. I found out who to contact and besides the time I reached out personally to Shad Kane in my first blog post, This was the first time I was contacting an organization about visiting a traditional site. I mean, I talked to a guard at Kapa'a quarry about visiting Pahukini Heiau and he told me I had to ask the main branch and then turned me away.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This time felt different because it was Kamehameha Schools and I guess I got a little excited about what they were going to say.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Anyhow, it did not turn out too positive I must admit. I was told that I could not visit the ahupua'a because there was nothing set up at the time to welcome visitors. A few farmers have property there which they wouldn't want me to tread on. There are visits to lo'i by students that I might have a chance to accompany if I were to try and get into that. There are also archaeologists that visit the area to study the sites already pointed out.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The thing that hurt was that I was left hanging for a couple weeks and then when I called, this is what they told me. It is very excusable but I had to explain who I was, which is a nobody. Also why I wanted to visit the area. My answer was that I was interested in visiting all of the sites from my culture. In fact I think I added that on my death bed I would love to have said I visited as much sites as I possibly could. I mean, from earlier posts in this blog. I have visited sites where nothing remains but just standing there really does mean something to you once there. If you study up on the exact location and then visit it you can get a feel on what it was like back when that site thrived.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Before the phone conversation ended, I was even asked not to mention this district. They actually thought I had enough vigilante readers to inspire trespassing. Everything about the area that they are asking me to "keep secret" is actually readily available online and in books at most local book stores and libraries. There are hiking blogs that explain how to enter the district from all sides. Yet my visit and sharing on my blog will somehow awaken a suspected ignorant group of readers and motivate them to enter Punalu'u without permission.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sometimes I like to think that what I share is enough for someone to say, "wow that's cool I didn't know the story about that place and that it was located there!" Then they go on with their lives because they know better. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Or someone may say, "yeah I've been there a long time ago. It's good that its still there and being visited by people like me." Or,"here are a few more things you left out that I've heard about the place!" </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I don't think anyone reads my blog and then immediately jumps into their car to take a selfie there and then kick a rock wall over. I mean telling me not to visit private property simply because you don't want me on your land is one thing and I'll accept that. But to be an establishment that is supposed to educate the Hawaiian people and then to tell me to keep my mouth closed, wow. I just trip.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Anyhow, I hope I can visit these wahi pana respectfully one day.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This experience has also inspired me to share sites that totally are nonexistent to the modern discerning eye and all that remains is a modern structure. I will visit the site and try to supply its memorial though better storytelling and particular perimeters of the site in relation to the lay of the land through images shared that help make it more valid.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Happy <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jonah_K%C5%ABhi%C5%8D_Kalaniana%CA%BBole" target="_blank">Prince Kuhio</a> Day!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I wasn't planning on coordinating this update with today's state holiday. But this is my last set of pics from the second day of our Kauai trip. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I wanted to visit the birth place and home of Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana'ole at Kukui'ula, Koloa. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">First because he was a super cool dude with an extraordinary life! Also because I always love seeing modern renditions of native Hawaiian gardens. Using stone, water source, and native or endemic fauna working harmoniously together. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The sun was hammering down on us at midday so we just took a quick stroll around to see what we could see...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGX6oxqiGDFRwOGJybhrl1dvoBM6OylZeER6i-sgrAcVSHKXJ-iDOmxVvTqWunm-v_VBavTyx2E8FLMzLjdGMSlMR1a4thxMM26tHKCWMu7SIxUZm5gNjn8UMWaEv9a4fNyPbD7b9kJMo/s1600/224.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhGX6oxqiGDFRwOGJybhrl1dvoBM6OylZeER6i-sgrAcVSHKXJ-iDOmxVvTqWunm-v_VBavTyx2E8FLMzLjdGMSlMR1a4thxMM26tHKCWMu7SIxUZm5gNjn8UMWaEv9a4fNyPbD7b9kJMo/s1600/224.JPG" height="213" width="320"></span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">My favorite recollection of the many things Kalaniana'ole did in his lifetime. Was that he fought for the Hawaiian Homes Commission Act to be opened to Hawaiians with at least 1/32nd koko, blood. That would have meant that even Hawaiians generations later into the future would have had better access to land. Instead of what was set at, at least 1/2 blood. Which was the same across the board for all indigenous races on American seized lands.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One other thing that stood out to me is that he was a cyclist!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here he is on the far left with one of the oldest and still going, cycling team called the Gamblers.<br>(image from wikimedia)<br><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_fg8nNQkTNj4h_3coKRZgfT3Cwk94BO4JKyUOEy7mBk3pXjzY5pDk44U7wiGHObaNDPCo-i8DLQl39EH722zJBkPxsBQbnCxvxsYc1kvggAkZbqi6xP-fEuH0NCQzVGRqRQ5TjIVPDOo/s1600/1503525_10206085150028022_54756685258665106_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_fg8nNQkTNj4h_3coKRZgfT3Cwk94BO4JKyUOEy7mBk3pXjzY5pDk44U7wiGHObaNDPCo-i8DLQl39EH722zJBkPxsBQbnCxvxsYc1kvggAkZbqi6xP-fEuH0NCQzVGRqRQ5TjIVPDOo/s1600/1503525_10206085150028022_54756685258665106_n.jpg" height="233" width="320"></a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He was also into football and an excellent marksman, Which may have helped him while serving in the British Army during the Second Beor War in Africa! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He even participated in the rebellion against the overthrow of the Kingdom of Hawaii. He along with Wilcox and others were imprisoned and threatened with the death penalty. Some say that their lives were what was used as a bargaining chip for the Republic of Hawaii asking for Queen Liliuokalani's cooperation.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> After all Stanford Dole was originally from the Koloa legislature under King Kalakaua.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Enough about that as I am no expert in those troubling times. Although one day I would like to cover the topic of what happened during the rebellion...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kalaniana'ole's home was very well constructed and the stones have the perfect combination of traditional rock stacking and modern aspects as well. With separate wings branching off of a larger complex.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After grabbing a couple plate lunches from Koloa Fish Market. We did the touristy thing and went back towards Poipu to eat and take a dip in the waters of Kauai. I found some smooth shelled opihi on the front of a small lava rock island offshore at Poipu beach. But all I had to pick them with were some old laminated business cards in my wallet. They quickly got soggy after just picking one. I did savor it though.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ancient settlers from the Marquesas led by Punanuikaia'aina placed a kapu on the boundary of Wailua from the ocean to Mauna Kapu on both sides of Wailua river and the ridges of Nounou and Kalepa. From those ancient days Wailuanuiaho'ano was the seat of royalty and center of the ancient religion of Kauai. His grandson, Puna'aikoa'i'i was famous throughout the archipelago as a merciful chief that upheld the kapu and kept the ali'i under him in strict standards. He gained favor from the commoners and he gathered the young warriors to practice mock battles and compete in athletic sport. His daughter, Hina'aulua fittingly accepted a famous voyaging chief of Oahu and Kahiki to be her husband, Mo'ikeha. Mo'ikeha and his offspring lived here in Wailua and thus the Oahu and Kauai kingdoms were linked.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There is no explanation for this stone in front of Holoholoku. It could be an altar for offerings. Another theory is that of the bell stone, which I will cover more on later. This one looks just like one in a museum that the visitor can actually hit and it will make a sound similar to hitting an iron plate of metal...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This is the birthing stone and during royal births it would have been covered in tapa cloths and a house would be constructed over it. The chiefess in labor would sit on one boulder and lean on this. As far as I know this is a different account of those practiced at Kukaniloko in Lihue, Oahu. In which the mother is said to have been carried above the birthing stone. Although, if Mo'ikeha is accredited with building this heiau in his time. Then Holoholoku precedes Kukaniloko... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It kind of blows my mind that Mo'ikeha was here and that his children were born here. Although he had other children in other lands such as La'amaikahiki. Also that one of his youngest sons, Kila may have been born here and made the long journey to unite La'a with his father Mo'ikeha. Upon arriving, La'a is said to have brought two shark skin pahu drums to be stored in Holoholoku and they announced royal birth throughout the land.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Mo'ikeha's sons became chiefs on Oahu's Kona and Ewa moku. La'a goes to Kualoa, Oahu and marries three woman that give birth on the same night. Kila returned to rule Wailua but went to what was once Mo'ikeha and Olopana's valley of Waipio in Hawaii island. Since the two had to evacuate and migrate south generations before, due to a catastrophic flood or tsunami in Waipio. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When Mo'ikeha died, La'a brought his bones back to Kahiki with Kila. Mo'ikeha's granddaughter, Ka'ililauokekoa inherited the kingdom. She was wooed by Kauakahiali'i with his enchanting nose flute melody from deep within Wailua Valley at Pihakalani. During her reign a split between the chiefs of Kona and Puna district on Kauai began. Most likely because of the desire of her own beauty. Which was said to rival that of Laie'ikawai...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Fredrick B. Wichman "The" historian of Kauai recently passed away. He lived in Ha'ena and pretty much everything I learned of Kauai are from his books. He shared a story of a troublesome Niu tree that pestered a chief that lived in a coconut groove in the area. By dropping coconuts on his house while he slept and then dropping leaves to trip the chief when he came outside to find the trouble maker. The niu tree could stretch out from a distance to reach the chiefs home and could even pretend to almost be cut down only to heal itself and remain up right intact. Niulolohiki was the niu tree's name and it was the brother of the legendary hero named Maui. After speaking its name this kupua lost its power and was able to be cut down. Although its trunk's splinters grew into other niu that still drop coconuts on unsuspecting passersby.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On the south shore of Wailua River is Hikinaakala. It is a pu'uhonua, a place of refuge. A defeated warrior from a losing side of battle or someone that broke the kanawai kapu laws. Could run here and stay for awhile and then leave forgiven by their pursuers. In fact the trouble would be on pursuers if they chose to continue to seek vengeance on the person.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sorry I know I'm skipping all over Wailua as far as the images I'm sharing goes. Here is what I believe may be the bell stone of Wailua. This was the last place I visited on my first day on Kauai before the sun finally set.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I knew about where it as supposed to be by maps I've been studying prior to our trip. It is just below Poliahu Heiau on the ridge of Kuamo'o. Earlier when I was at Poliahu I walked down a dirt road but could not find anything significant. There were also two large pohaku under a tree next to the heiau that I thought might have been it. When I came out of the dirt road my wife was researching online to see if anyone had better images of it's location. I even asked a man parked on the side of the road feading chickens if he knew where they were. He told me that they were somewhere down the dirt road. But he lived nearby all his life and never found them.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I was a little frustrated and decided to head back into the dirt road and walk straight into the bushes.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I found two very large stones that stood a little higher than six feet and figured this must be the place. With all of the overgrowth cleared .These stones would clearly be seen from the river...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The Pohaku Kani Bell Stones were used to notify the people of Wailua about important events at the heiau. They may have heralded the birth of an ali'i before the time of La'a's pahu drums. They may have also aligned with solar events. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I was very interested in finding a bell stone as I have been wondering what kind of stone makes what kind of sound. A stalk of Ki was used to create the sound in relation to the stone. Since reading about the one that once stood (now destroyed or taken) near Sacred Hearts on Waialae Ave. in Oahu. Both are recorded to have been heard from far away in their ahupuaa. Both are described as rounded which conflicts with the bell stone video I found on youtube of one that looked almost plate like and a pebble was used to hit it. I am unsure if either of these are the bell stone or if it is another red one nearby. Or if it was also taken or destroyed.</span></div>

Kaahumanu had the temples destroyed at the end of the Kapu System. A Christianized priest named Huleia chipped the bell stone.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The bell stone is also said to have been used by people at Poliahu to communicate with another heiau toward the ocean, Malae Heiau. Also known as Malaea, Makakaukiu, and Mana heiau.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> I feel bad for underestimating this heiau. I thought it was going to be covered in overgrowth and not really anything significant. I actually passed it on the first day and returned to Wailua the following morning just because we were planning on eating at Pono Market for breakfast.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Upon arrival I parked on the side of the road and I noticed a truck there and someone watering plants. I approached this slender man as he shrugged to himself like, hmm I wonder what these people are doing here. I asked him my all to well used phrase. Something like, do you know any moolelo about the heiau here? He suprised me with his reply. He asked me, why do you want to know? I got a little cocky and said because I'm Hawaiian and I want to learn about places like this. He elevated the situation and struck me with a mind blower. He say's, you aren't Hawaiian. You're a kanaka!</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I could tell this person was special and that like others I've met along my journey of seeking the truth. He was right up there with the likes of Shad Kane from my first blog post. Or Kaleo Paik during my visits at Hawea. This man, that only identified his self later as Mark. Was the main man to be talking to about Malae Heiau and the district we were in. Which he bitterly explained, is rightfully named Nawiliwili. He told me about how we are children of the land and that Hawaii is only named so because of the conquering of foreign rulers upon it. He told me that while he was here cleaning the area one day, which he has done a very awesome job of. He was approached by a representative from OHA along with sheriffs and other people that were trying to remove him from there. He fought back proudly and told them he has a right to be there because of his religion and that their very own laws protected him. They left him alone after that.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He said he has been on a spiritual journey for most of his life and even traveled to other countries and spoke to shamans to learn what was the correct way of life.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He came to the conclusion that life is a gift from one higher source. All we have is nature and our skin form to enjoy it. Everything is what you yourself make of it. Your piko is all that you are and whether you stayed true to yourself that is the last thing you will take with you when you leave.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">That is about all I can recall from what seemed like a long conversation on the side of a road. It was very powerful though. We shared breath, honi honi. Then he welcomed us to go and see the heiau...</span><br>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Malae Heiau is said to have been built by the menehune that came with Ku'alunuipaukumokumoku. It's gigantic at 273 feet by 324 feet. The stone walls are 7 to 10 feet high and 8 feet wide. Inside the heiau is a ledge 2 feet above ground and 6 feet wide. The corners overlap and are buttressed with 13 foot walls. Like no other in Hawaii. The heiau is also known as Maka'Ukiu "source of the 'ukiu wind."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There is a wide cleared section surrounding the entire heiau but the growth inside is not cleared and is left undisturbed. It's crazy to imagine that Mark is doing this all by himself. I just love the amount of preservation Kauai heiau receive but at the same time they are clearly marked on maps and signs are posted educating the visitor. On all of our heiau visits there were other people arriving to pay respects and see what they could find, but not here.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A longing to visit the island of Kauai has been churning inside of me for quite some time. Just last week I was able to visit it for two days with my wife. This is the second time being on this island and that first trip was also just a couple of days as well. Kind of yeah huh, on my first trip I was kind of in a rush and went all over the place and then just made dinner for ourselves in the hotel. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This time I was a little more conscious and actually tried to relax a bit and slow down from Honolulu time. If someone else in the world could relate to that. The outer island are in fact comparably more "chill" than that of Oahu. No freeways or TheBus to zoom around in and the speed limit was marked a little slower than simular roads on Oahu. There are multiple one-lane bridges that you need to stop and wait for opposite traffic to pass safely. What was cool was that everyone still left gaps in between cars while driving the speed limit. No faster, no slower besides confused tourists. Everything was much to my liking of true island lifestyle.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The first direction we headed once we got the rental car (sorry, no cycling on this trip. Maybe I'll come back for Pedal to the Meadow one year) was northeast to the end of the Kuhio Hwy. in Ha'ena. The first stop like my first trip had to be the caves, one dry and the other two wet caves. They are pretty touristy but not everyone is interested in entering them to have a look around. Most will simply observe from outside and then head off to Na'Pali or back the other way.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Maniniholo is the dry cave across Haena Beach park. It is said that there was a feast for the menehune when they finally left Hawaii from Kauai and boarded their canoes from the beach here. The menehune were a mysterious race of people living before the second wave of migrants to the island. Some say their last stronghold in Hawaii was on Kauai and near the NaPali area. They laborred in very large tasks such as fishing and building well designed rock structures such as temples and fishponds. They themselves were said to turn into stone if they were hit by the rays of the sun. That is why there are so many named pohaku on Kauai. On a more real note they may have been the <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2014/04/morning-petroglyph-part-3.html" target="_blank">Mu people</a>.</span><br>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Another race of mysterious origin is the 'e'epa people. In some stories they are similar to the menehune and even quarrel with the Mu race. In other stories they are superhuman or even deformed people. There is a legend that when the menehune left these shores. The 'e'epa people came out from the rocks in this cave and robbed the food for the feast of the menehune departure. They were caught and they were all killed in this cave. </span><br>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Although if the Mu and 'E'epa are said to have made their last stand here and in the nearby district of Na Pali. Why is the Ahupua'a of Nu'alolo named after what may mean "brains heaped up?" Did they find refuge here and then migrate away to others islands in the Pacific due to mass genocide? </span><br>

Only the Ali'i were able to bath or even drink this water. There are clear marked signs that this place is sacred and to be respectful. Although there are also signs that warn against swimming because of leptospirosis...</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> Lohiau's house site! This site sits just to the left of the beginning of the Na Pali Coast Trail. You will see this straight wall protruding from the overgrowth under the cliff. Lohiau is well known as Pele's lover that Hi'iaka eventually fell in love with and through many trial and tribulations they were eternally united. Lohiau was the high cheif of Kauai before that and he was very handsome and wise. He along with his court of family and close friends were able to trick the greedy Piliwale sisters and turn them into stone with the sunrise up on the cliff. Although two mo'o women Kalanamainu'u and Kilioekapua would claim his soul until it was restored to life by Hiiaka and then he was restored again by Pele's family after they returned to face Pele in Kilauea.</span></div>

That took Lohiau's body and soul to a cave after his death. Kilioe was used to place a newborn's umbilical cord in in order that the child be protected by it. What would become of the ambilical cord would tell the fortunes of that child life...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">"The rules during the time of training were very strict. A pupil could only share his or her food with other members of his class. Certain foods were kapu, such as sugar cane, taro tops, certain types of seaweed, and squid. If such foods were eaten the knowledge of the hula would flee from the student. Sexual intercourse was prohibited during the time of training. Fingernails could not be cut, nor hair trimmed, and men could not shave. Yet each day the pupils had to bath and change their clothes. From the days of the building of the altar until graduation, the greenery remained fresh because Laka was there. After the graduation ceremony, the leaves and blossoms became brown and fell away."</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I had the pleasure of attending the Talk Story Festival at McCoy Pavilion in October and figured I'd share some of it with you. I caught word of it on the radio that there was going to be an eight part telling of the epic Hi'iaka I Ka Poli O'Pele.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Some of the storytellers stood out to be more memorable to me. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Calama Cabigon opened with a very quick worded oli and then returned on another turn summing up the journey of Pele from her original family homeland in Bora Bora. He related her to the most human version as a powerful chiefess that was forced to leave her homeland for what ever reason, possibly because of a rival. She left with her family and followers and finally found a home in Hawaii.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Moses Goods shared a very eloquent story from the point of view of Pana'ewa. One of the many Mo'o that Hi'iaka met on her journey to fetch Pele's dream lover. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kilohana Silve brought a couple members from her Paris based halau, and chanted while a woman danced hula. Representing the sad tale of Hopoe as she danced in the face of the fires of Pele. As it consumed Hi'iaka's favorite ohia forest and her beloved friend. Hopoe was a hula deity and played with Hi'iaka before she left on Pele's quest. She remained on the shores of Puna as a balancing rock that would sway with the tides. Until finally it was lost to the sea...</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Jeff Gere was given the task of telling the part when Hi'iaka finally reaches Kauai to claim Lohiau, Pele's lover. Although when she arrives she is surprised to find that Lohiau has died from what at first seemed like grief of Pele leaving him. </span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Hi'iaka along with Wahine'Oma'O then goes through one of their most challenging deeds in the honor of her sister, besides facing her sister in opposition at the end of her quest...</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">She locates Lohiau's body and then gives strict instructions to everyone in the ahupuaa. They had to build a house with no doors. Everyone had to leave the ahupua'a, simular to the death of any ali'i of a district where that district would become "unclean" until the death rites were observed and then the kapu would be lifted. Although, Hi'iaka wasn't gonna settle for death, she intended to resurrect Lohiau. After days of prayer and explicit tasks were carried out. Such as caring for his lifeless body and then claiming his spirit in a cave up high in a mountain cave guarded by two mo'o women. Whom had at first troubled Pele when she came in her dream form to meet Lohiau. Hi'iaka was finally successful to bring life back to Lohiau. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Below are illustrations of Lohiau's lifeless body and the direction he was laid and what kinds of garland were arranged about him to complete the process of resurrection...</span></div>

Sorry for the late upload guys, I've been doing a lot of bike riding during the end of the year for a challenge on the Strava app.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyhow, last month I was able to rush over to Kukaniloko to view my second <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2013/12/kukaniloko-during-winter-solstice.html" target="_blank">Winter Solstice at Kukaniloko</a>. Since starting this blog.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On the way there I pulled over just before the Ka Uka Blvd. off ramp to view a suspected ahu. This is technically still part of my last blog entry about Waiawa. While reading up on some cultural impact studies of the area, I came across this ahu that has been recognized by Tom Lenchanko. It is a stone wall of some sort that has no modern record. Although some claim it could just be a rock support for the telephone pole right next to it. Others say it's an ahu that marks the ahupua'a boundary of Waiawa and Waipio. The stones are small and uniform in relation to each other. I might return to take a closer look. As it is located across the gulch along the H2 freeway. It's cool that you can see it while driving on the freeway...</div>

I arrived at Kukaniloko with about half an hour before the sunset. So I had some time to soak in the scenery. Jo-Lin Lenchanko was there and I was actually reminded of this important event in one of her emails from the Wahiawa Civic Club. She recently sent out another email with her own take on the event and she even points out that Venus arose above Kukaniloko on this night. </div>

I will stop here and let you observe for yourself, the alignment of the year in relation to the Waianae range and Kukaniloko...</div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Last, last Saturday I decided to take a ride out to a place in Waiawa I've been reading about for the last three weeks. I studied maps easily found online and plotted my course on Google maps. Using the Terrain option to figure out exactly what approach to take.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Aside from the large military presence in the mauka and makai areas. To the regular passersby Waiawa pretty much seems untouched by modern development. Although, sugar plantations were the first to totally envelop this district. Now it seems like a solar farm will be the next occupier of this ahupuaa for this generation of Oahu. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Waiawa is named after the bitter drink of Awa that was used by the higher ranked in the old times and later commoners drank it as well. It was said the water ways themselves are similar to that of an awa root the way they twist and turn through the lowland areas before finally reaching Pearl Harbor. Now those waterways are restricted and channel into one stream instead of a wide delta at the mouth of it. It is choked and narrow for the most part. Awa has other meanings like that of the milkfish, and awa can also mean a harbor cove or passage...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The freeway intersects a couple of the gulches of Waiawa and border Waipio. I had to figure out a way to get where with the least amount of trail searching and I couldn't just park a car where I wanted to enter the overgrowth.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I found a ditch that led water from the freeway into the gulch below. So I stepped lightly through the California grass and expected it to suddenly drop off at some point like most do.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Finally I got into Panakauahi Gulch. I was both relieved and saddened to find fresh tracks from dirt bikes down there.

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This path along the ridge of Waiawa was used for unnumbered generations through precontact and up until modern times. People travelling from the Kona to Ewa district up to the Lihue area and even further toward Waialua took this route. Trails pointed out by John Papa I'i shows this route leading to Oahunui via multiple Waiawa gulches and finally to the Kipapa and Waikakalaua gluches. The H2 freeway was built to follow this route. Although an older route about a mile eastward would have also been traveled as well...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Imagine yourself taking this trail long ago. You've had something to do with the water of Puuloa and now you are heading inland along this well beaten path. The trek takes a lot of effort and you need to rest, maybe for the night. Rain brings a flash flood down the normally placid stream. Where do you go for a break?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One legend is of a chiefess from Hawaii island taking this path. She stopped to hide her Nihi Palaoa, whale tooth pendant in order to keep her status secret. A stone akua of this valley named Ke'kua Olelo, talking god witnessed where she hid it. In a rock at a heiau across the gulch, later to be named after the talking god. He promised her that he would show her descendants where it was hidden.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Another legend involing the same Ke'akua Olelo is when it witnesses two starving children. A brother and sister coming from the ocean decide to eat a fish together instead of taking it back home. This was during the kapu system that did not allow male and female to eat together. Possibly the only time the kapu ai was broken up until Liholiho ate with his mother Kaahumanu after the death of Kamehameha...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This wahi pana in the ahupuaa of Ka'alaea, hearkens to the ancient times when paramount chiefs of the Pacific journeyed vast distances just by the winds, currents, stars and beckoning of gods. All of which they had great knowledge of. They are cherished in story until this day and this place may have been a symbol to their memory, now lost to development. Sadly like most of our beloved wahi pana are.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">It isn't exactly stated whom the cherished individuals were to have inspired the original memorial. Mo'ikeha, the brother of Olopana is said to have returned to Hawaii and lived near here for some time before settling in Kauai. His son Kiha is said to have traveled to Kahiki possibly to return his father's bones but also to retrieve Mo'ikeha's foster son La'a to be a ruler in Hawaii. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">La'a is definitely connected with this area as he lived in Kaneohe for sometime. Building a heiau and home near the exact spot where he landed. Kahai a descendant of Mo'ikeha lived in the nearby district of Hakipu'u and is famed as the furthest travelling chief to ever sail out of the known parts of the world to ancient Polynesia at the time... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Na Wa'a Li'ili'i Kiolea was once a stone structure on the shores of Ka'alaea, a beach called Mahinahina. It is said to have been a stone canoe where travelers from Kahiki landed and spread sand from their homeland on the shore. They also are said to have brought a mapu tree not found on these islands previously.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kaipuiolea, is named as the person to have done so from the historian Kamakau.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The story of sand sharing from distant lands is also connected to a place in <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2014/05/koolaupoko.html" target="_blank">Kaneohe</a> called Na one a La'a, the sands of La'a. There are other stone canoe legends connected to other places. Such as the one once found at Allen Davis beach, heralding Pele's arrival. A tidal wave in 1947 displaced that one.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sometime during the construction of the first road around the island, eventually becoming Kamehameha Hwy. A group of road workers decided to break up Na Wa'a Li'ili'i Kiolea and use the rocks as material in the road. Some of the local workers rejected the idea but the haole workers led by a "hardened man" went ahead and did destroy the structure. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The stones were under strict kapu up until that moment in time and no one was allowed to disturb them. This kapu may have been the cause of the haole workers apparent death after their deed...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Pahukini Heiau has eluded me for long enough and this past weekend I finally took the time out to visit it. My first attempt was quickly shut down years ago as I tried to drive up to it from the Kapaa Dump Station. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A few of the heiau in the district of Kailua and Kaneohe were built by Olopana and even have a similar look as far as wall width and height. Like that of <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2014/03/kawaewae-heiau.html" target="_blank">Kawa'ewa'e Heiau</a> on the other side of Mahinui ridge. Back when I visited that heiau I was under the impression that there was only one chief named Olopana. But now I am open to the idea that there was another chief named Olopana generations after the voyaging Olopana of Waipio and Kahiki. He may have been the one that built at least five heiau in the Koolaupoko moku and had dealings with the legendary Kamapua'a.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Pahukini means many drums, but it has other possible older names like Mo'okini simular to the heiau Pa'ao made in Hawaii island. It seems to relate together as there is also another name of the heiau, Makini which means many deaths. Pa'ao brought the sacrificial religion to Hawaii and it spread throughout the rest of the island chain eventually. Pahukini may have been a newer name created by onlookers at a distance hearing the drums of the practices going on away from view.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Speculation aside, sometimes heiau are built over older structures and used for totally different means. After the Kapu system fell to Christianity and then development came in, and finally all of the kupuna passed away. Who are we to profusely say that we know exactly what each and every heiau was used for? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In fact it's a wonder that this heiau still physically exists. Since one of it's walls almost slid down a man made cliff about 200 feet high, created from rock quarrying in the 50's. After that the dump took over and dumped rubbish near it. The landfill dirt would later be used as an aid to preserve the unstable wall from falling. By filling the area below it with stable ground.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">While reading Fornander's Collection #5, one of the legends stuck with me. It was the Legend of Palila. This legendary hero of Hawaii has origins in Kauai and then eventually ends up in Hilo on the island of Hawaii. Although he did spend some time on the island of Oahu, and those locations were the ones I was interested in finding.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila was discarded at birth by his parents Kaluaopalena (the ruler of half of Kauai), and Mahinui (the daughter of Hina). In the Koloa district of Kauai because he was born as a form of a bloody cord. Palila's grandmother Hina came and claimed him from a refuse pile and covered him in tapa cloth. After three times of switching out to clean tapa cloth, Palila eventually took to the form of a human. This was in the sacred temple of Alanapo, where spirits dwell .</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After growing up with Hina living in the spirit realm and years of being taught the art of war. He emerged a strong valiant champion. Half spirit and half man. He left his home and journeyed into his first battle that was going on between his father Kaluaopalena, and the ruler of the other half of Kauai, Namakaokalani. Palila swung his war club named Huliamahu a mile away from the battle and fell trees which in turn crushed the opposition to Kaluaopalena. His father becoming king of the entire island of Kauai. Kaluaopalena humbly approached his son Palila and during an uneasy, high tension moment Hina appeared and made Palila laugh. Breaking the kapu of Palila and then she partially circumcised him as they returned to the sacred place called Alanapo.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After ten days of being back in Alanapo, Palila became restless and wanted to travel to other lands to fight chiefs and demigods. He twirled his great war club and by simply holding on to the end of it he could fly to distant places (kind of like Thor in the Avengers movies). He flew from the knoll of Komoikeanu to the cliff of Nualolo, he stood there and looked over the ocean toward Kahiki, but then chose to head to Oahu.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> He swung his club again and landed on Oahu at Kaena point in Waianae. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVH1c1g1qicjXXZsVUXY3ex2avQVLeyty5QyejYJqgt7YH2opa2dmBxq2KRTZ5zaMlGBEc0vzM6YwgBngOeNmvrbFBkqQm0auIGpQoy7fgOCtwoTAwGcGeKQx_46-HjsgjWGg23tL_tQtw/s1600/cave+043.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVH1c1g1qicjXXZsVUXY3ex2avQVLeyty5QyejYJqgt7YH2opa2dmBxq2KRTZ5zaMlGBEc0vzM6YwgBngOeNmvrbFBkqQm0auIGpQoy7fgOCtwoTAwGcGeKQx_46-HjsgjWGg23tL_tQtw/s1600/cave+043.JPG" height="135" width="320" /></span></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br />
Then he a flew short flights to Pu'u Kalena, to Pohakea, to Maunauna, to Kanehoa (all of the previous being mountain peaks on the Waianae range), to the plain of Keahumoa where Palila overlooked the district of Ewa. He saw a dust cloud of the people gathering there and so he headed to Honouliuli. The people of Ewa heard his arrival like roaring thunder and fled to Waikele.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When Palila arrived in Waikele he found the people playing athletic games. Hosted by the King of Oahu at that time, Ahuapau. When Palila left Kauai, he had a vision of meeting an unruly character by the name of Kamaikaahui. A sharkman from Maui with the mouth of a shark on his back. Kamaikaahui was a farmer that would keep track of people headed to the ocean, and beat them to the water and eat them. He was discovered in Maui for what he was doing and fled to Waikele Oahu. He could not resist his hunger and took up to his same evil ways here, and could blend in for some time by covering his shark parts under a loin cloth.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ahuapau feared Kamaikaahui and declared a kapu that if anyone were able to chase the sharkman out of Oahu or kill him. Ahuapau would make that person the chief ruler of Oahu.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila told Ahuapau that Kamaikaahui would flee at the sight of him. Ahuapau realized that this was the man that was going to help defeat his enemies and welcomed Palila into his inner court. Palila revealed himself to Kamaikaahui and as the sharkman tried to escape into the ocean. Palila blocked his way with his club, Huliamahu. Kamaikaahui's cloth was removed and his shark form was shown to all of the people and then he was killed.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ahuapau was said to have had his royal enclosure at Kalaipohaku close to Wailuakio in Kapalama. He was a kapu chief that was kept away from wind and rain. He was carried around in a palanquin by two swift runners of his, Iomea and Ioloa.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Papakolea was a farmer that lived in Leleo with his wife Koiuiu. He was told that when his harvest was ready, the Heiau Kanelaauli would be opened to the public. Papakolea, upon seeing Palila. Mentioned to Ahuapau that he should have his daughters, Kaalamikioi and Kalehuawai wed to Palila. Kahikoluamea (not sure if he was Ahuapau's kahu or the officiating priest over Kanelaauli Heiau)cautioned not to have Palila wed to his daughters until Palila's spirit form could be removed and have him in full human form.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila was quickly placed in Ahuapau's palanquin and quickly taken to Kanelaauli Heiau. Where they performed a ceremony of drums and coconut rattling to turn Palila the kapu chief of Alanapo into a perfect man.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ahuapau being left without his runners and palanquin felt the wind and rain for the first time. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After the ceremony was done. Palila was allowed to marry Ahuapau's daughters and they lived together.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One day Ahuapau asked Palila to take a tour of the island of Oahu and Palila agreed. Before leaving he asked Ahuapau, "Aohe kupu, a alai o ke alanui a puni Oahu nei? Are there any lawless obstructions along the road surrounding Oahu?" Ahuapau relied, no. Although, he was lying and actually knew that there was a giant warrior living in the Koolau district at Kaelepulu, Olomana. Ahuapau must have felt threatened that Palila would take the kingdom away from him and intended for Palila to hopefully be killed by Olomana.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila replied, "yes, I am going on my way and in case I meet some one who will attempt to harm me, I will first kill him and then I will return and kill you and all your men. Ahuapau came clean and told him the truth, and Palila agreed to continue his journey and not kill Ahuapau. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila climbed to the top of Punchbowl and then walked to Nuuanu Pali. From there he swung his war club and flew to where Olomana was at Kaelepulu. When he saw Olomana he jumped up and landed on his shoulder. Olomana was thirteen yards in height as the storyteller describes. No one ever dared to challenge him. Once on his shoulder, Olomana asked where this haughty youngster was from. Palila told him who he was and that he was from the temple of the gods in Alanapo Kauai. This caused Olomana to experience fear for perhaps the first time. He knew that warriors from Alanapo were endowed with supernatural powers. Olomana asked Palila for mercy but Palila denied him and told him he had to die for the evil deeds he has done. Palila took one swing with his war club Huliamahu, and cut Olomana in half. One half fell toward the ocean becoming Mahinui hill overlooking the fishponds of Mokapu. The other half remained where Olomana stood becoming the three peaks that bare his name till this day.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After Palila made a circuit of the island he met a fisherman named Kahului in the Maunalua district. Palila aided this man to take his canoe out to see. Even paddling with his war club Huliamahu after breaking nine paddle wis his brute strength. While out at sea he even baited his war club and caught fish with it on great numbers. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This was the way that Palila eventually left the island of Oahu. He landed in Molokai and after eating his fish with Kahului. He swung his war club and flew to the rest of the islands. He eventually landed in Hawaii island at Kaula in Hamakua near Hilo. He met Hina's sister Lupea living in Kaawalii. It is said that when ever Palila spread out his malo no hau tree grew there even till this day. The storyteller reveals that this was because of the god of Palila this god is revealed as Ku. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila for sometime became a vagabond along the roadside rolling a calabash.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> A battle of two apposing chiefs, Kulukulua of Hilo and Wanua of Hamakua. Similar to the battle between his father and his rival on Kauai, was taking place near him. Again as on the other islands were great warriors with massive war clubs. The Hamakua side had them and they boasted to the Hilo side which warrior they could offer up to compete. Upon hearing this Palila joined the Hilo side and stopped the hostilities to instead challenge these warriors. The fuels was cleared and the two largest of them set up to fight Palila. Palila hit the war club of the largest warrior sending it flying to Waipio and then killed all of the three giant warriors of Hamakua. He hung their jaws up on a lehua tree on Kaula. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Palila became the king of Hilo and remained there until his death.</span></div>

The Prince Lot Hula Festival in Moanalua Gardens was this past Saturday. I actually started work on the same time the event did. So I decided to pass through on my commute to see what I could find. I rode through all of the booths and was inclined to stop at one that caught my eye.<div>Keith Maile was already in conversation with another fellow that I recognized but could not figure where I knew him from. He most likely figured the same thing as we created each other with the traditional sharing of breath face to face. Later I realized that the gentleman was the other guy with a camera at the Pali lookout on the day of the Battle of Nuuanu memorial commemoration. I wish I got his name though. He's in the picture above and standing to the left of Mr. Maile.</div><div>Keith Maile was a gentleman and described each and every object he had on display. He mentioned that sharing knowledge about them is even more fulfilling than trying to sell them. Although I bet he gets by pretty good with that as well. He supplies Royal Hawaiian Jewelers and even Bishop Museum with his authentic Hawaiian carvings, implements, kapa, ornamentation, 'umeke, and weapons.<br>

This adze o'o is secured to an Ulu wood handle. He mentioned that Ulu (breadfruit) wood is very light. It is better for it to be light to handle as well as being easier to break before the stone does. As the stone would be harder to acquire after the tool's expected failure through repeated use.<br>

I tried to sound smart and asked about the use of the wood from the only endemic olive, Olopua. He caught me right away and mentioned about Peter Young's recent post on the matter (exactly where I heard about it). Keith Maile actually had some samples of Olopua, a very hard wood used for many things from weapons to fishing. He asked us to smell it and mentioned that he has grown to tell the different woods apart by their smell when he works with them. It was hard for us to get that sense of smell from them as good as he would while sanding them and having the dust flown in the air while doing so. He also mentioned that the dust from creating these implements could also be harmful. Sanding teeth and bones cause a build up in the lungs and create a sort of cement in your lungs after a while. He recommends using a mask while handling those materials.<br>

Lastly, these shells blew my mind. Hihiwai are small stream snails that only thrive in the most purest of fresh water streams He acquired the largest one from Molokai. That he was wearing around his wrist. They are a beautiful black with a hint of orange just under that layer. The texture of the top looks like that of some sort of salamander skin. It must be very hard to find in a stream because of its rarety and camoflouge with the surrounding rocks it would be embedded in. I didn't get to ask him about the snail itself and if it tasted good or was even edible. I'd probably eat it if I found one. My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Opihi craving!<br>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This was one of the places where a legendary earth goddess Kameha'ikana dwelt. She would go to the ocean to pick limu and then return to her dwelling up high on the 'Ioleka'a cliffs of Haiku Valley. This cave had a connection with, and could be viewed from Kehekili Heiau below in the center of the valley. Wahinekapu was also connected to this cave.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One of my close friends works for a moving company. One day as they were driving on the H3 freeway, his coworker pointed out to him this same cave. He was told that there was a burial canoe inside of it and the canoe could actually be seen with binoculars! I've never attempted to bring anything more than my iphone while driving on the freeway to take pics. On this day I actually pulled over on the shoulder lane with my hazard lights flashing and hung out of the window to take these pictures. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The cave seems to almost be impossible to approach from any angle. Anyone that got inside must have been a true god among men, or at least a expert cliff climber. Anything deposited inside would have to have been done using the ancient Hawaiian technique of lowering it down from above the cave and then swung inside. The rope used for lowering the object would be soaked in blood, so that rats would eat the rope as it was left on the cliff side. If it was an idol or a canoe than it would be the only thing remaining in the cave. Had it been a chiefs bones, they would have been bundled with salt so that the rats would leave it alone...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This last Saturday was the Summer Solstice in Hawaii. It was my first experience with this event at Kukaniloko but my third visit this year to observe the setting sun during a solar event. Such as the <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2013/12/kukaniloko-during-winter-solstice.html" target="_blank">Winter Solstice</a> and the <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2014/03/kukaniloko-during-vernal-equinox.html" target="_blank">Spring Equinox</a>. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This one seemed like the most popular for some reason. As I walked in at around 5pm, there was already a large group gathered, picnic style watching live music playing. I made my way past them, kicked off my shoes and joined the group that my friend Kamana'o was with. Among the group were some familiar faces such as my friend the artist known as John Prime. As well as the caretakers of Kukaniloko from Wahiawa Civic Club hosted by Jo-Lin Lenchanko. Sadly, Tom Lenchanko was out due to a fever. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Almost everyone came with gifts and they were placed together on a specific pohaku near the piko stone. I don't know the significance of that exact one yet, I should have asked. A couple of families came and left offerings on different pohaku throughout the enclosure. Later that night I would learn that different families have connections with different pohaku there... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here is Jo-Lin leading a prayer for the event and so is the gentleman next to her, David Wallace. He also had a lot of insight on Kukaniloko, it's meaning and culmination to this specific time and place. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">David <a href="http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/sidereal.html" target="_blank">calculated</a> that the exact moment that Kukaniloko would align with the center of the universe would be at 6:32pm that day, and how this is one of the rare places that actually emits mana. Besides the other instance where one could receive mana from asking for it from their ancestors. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When a child of the land visits this place, all of their ancestors are also there with them. Leading up to the very dawn of time. Jo-Lin insists that the people of this land did not come here but were already, always here. A concept that I have also been learning about recently. </span></div>

That were actually conducted in the morning during this event in previous years but they found it right to be at sunset this time for this year's Summer Solstice. Keep in mind that in relation to the rest of the world, Hawaii is the last place to have sun in this time zone. The next time zone is already on the previous day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> Jo-Lin had a very touching speech about Ano'ai, literally meaning a greeting but deeper Kaona meaning is an attitude and lifestyle. If everyone had this trait of simple greeting of one another then the entire world would be a better place.</span></div>

The skies opened to a soft but steady downpour. This was seen as a blessing. All of the stones were now dampened and the piko stone's (or Pu'u Palaoa as Kumu Kaipo'i calls it) concentric circles and other petroglyphs were revealed to relation of the sun's angle that day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Last but not least was the appearance of a halau out of the Waianae area. They took the time and came to honor this annual momentous occasion with a few Hula Kahiko performances and one of a more modern rendition of storytelling through song and dance. I did not catch the name of the group the name of their Kumu is Ulukoa, whom mentioned that they are from the district of Waianae of the ocean side, Waianae Kai. So they are connected to the Waianae of the Wahiawa side as well. Even though it wasn't exactly around the corner in distance. As other ahupuaa are on Oahu. He did explain the story each time before they started to dance, what each one meant. He even credited the people that he learned them from. I did not catch any of the specific titles and I feel horrible about it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I had no idea Kahu could party so hard. We were invited to come to an after party with Kamana'o, John and other "metaphysical" intellectuals. We brainstormed and shared some not too serious stories and experiences. John Prime even practiced some string figures used for navigation. This figure is of the Pleiades, Seven Sisters constellation. This constellation is very significant to wayfinding in the Pacific at night. Sometimes each star in the constellation are named after past rulers of each of the Hawaiian islands. But if you simulate this figure in daylight hours you can trace the path of the sun as well. Giving you direction and the changing of seasons... </span></div>

I welcome anyone to visit Kukaniloko during these events or simply visiting our Piko whenever you have the chance. I personally feel a great need to return to this place when ever I feel lost or in confusion about daily life. It makes me centered again for some reason. You should try it! Bring your ancestors too! Let us share breath and have them all connect to each other from days past leading to our own lives here. Aloha!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A few weeks ago I was riding around Waikiki and decided to try to take a look at the new section of bike path that was recently reopened. I remember going crabbing with my dad's side of the family back when I was younger and we could walk completely around the Ala Wai Canal. So I rolled right into the golf course parking lot figuring it was connected to the bike path now. No luck, that section of the path is still physically there but only used by golf carts. The path instead, still takes you around the entire golf course onto Date Street and then back behind Iolani School to the Ala Wai Bike Path. The only section that was reopened is a short section that was next to the community garden section near the elementary.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This whole area was marshland with small collections of somewhat fresh water ponds all over the place and wet farmland years ago. The Ala Wai was made to collect all of that water and channel it out into the ocean. You should always be mindful when seeing pohaku that was once in a lo'i of old. They always stand out somehow as guardians of the area. Some with small holes as eyes or ears, and even complete faces. This large pohaku in the golf course across from the old Sam Choi Restaurant. Had a section that looked like it had a place set for sitting or placing offerings on it. </span></div>

Some say that some of the Niu trees found within the property are remnants of the ancient coconut grove. Although I cannot conceive which ones they would be. As their height do not even come close to the height of those found at Hawea Heiau. Maybe because the heiau is older than Helumoa. </span></div>

At the time they left the island and the people of Hawaii to return home.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In 1997 the fence was placed around the stones to better preserve them and a stone was brought from the ancient homeland of the travelling kahuna. A stone ahu platform was erected to support the stone and a plaque was placed explaining the significance of this structure. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Sorry guys, fast kine tidbits today. I will return to this cherished place more often and gather more in depth blog entries for you! After all I was simply riding my bike around on this day and not trying too hard to collect history. I hope you are inspired to research your own questions of our rich history in these islands and physically visit them for yourself if possible as well. Aloha!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">This was the mind state I showed up with after my wife begged me to accompany her and her sisters on a single day trip to the Big Island of Hawai'i. There were four of them including my brother in-law that were there for the entire weekend. I had just finished completing my new carbon race bike and I was dying to take it out for an all day maiden voyage instead. My wife gave me the puppy dog eyes and said she'd be lonely without me. So I gave in and joined them for a day, this last Monday on my only day off from work. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">Although, I had ulterior motives for my visit. I wasn't going to pass up on visiting places of deep interest to me. Had I had more time, I would have taken the opportunity to visit family and friends living on the Big Island. My in-laws would have been treated to the best hangout spots and great food and drink, but that wasn't the vibe when I arrived... </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: x-small;">I decided to focus on Kamehameha and his Kahuna Hewahewa. Again, have I had more time I would have visited other sites that I've studied about and honored all of the rulers of the island. Not just the most popular and more recent. I was with a team of travelling snackers and I had to get to Kailua, Kona from Hilo. With time to return for our flight out back at Hilo Airport.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>On the plane I busted out "Ruling Chiefs of Hawaii" by Kamakau, and tried to take notes of significant heiau in Hawaii island as collected by Kamakau in the index of the book. A gentleman sitting next to me, Joe Kahele asked me how I liked the book and mentioned that it was about time for him to read it again. I had a vibe that we was cool dude and it seemed as if he was there to await or participate in the arrival of the Hokule'a, that was heading to Hilo from Oahu. It was a short conversation. I wish I took my stupid earphones off earlier.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One such place that stood out seemed close to our hotel so I took a google maps screen pic of the location. When I was picked up at the airport we had to pull over to yelp/locate an ice cream place called Kozmic Cones. I said I would look it up and when I pulled up my phone it was still set at the screen pic of the heiau. Although the google map screen was the exact same spot where we pulled over at. I knew then that I had to visit that place. After crashing(sleeping a night) at the hotel, the next morning on the way to Kona, I asked to pull over again at the same spot.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">"In September, 1776, Kamehameha returned to Hawaii to make war on Namakeha and his followers. The battle took place at Hilo. Namakeha was defeated, fled, and hid in the bush until he was captured. He was made a mock of by his enemies, and in January, 1797, with the consent of Kamehameha, he was offered in sacrifice to the gods in the heiau of Kai Palaoa in Pi'ihonua, Hilo. Many had said that Namakeha would never be taken by Kamehameha because he was of higher blood, but it was the higher powers who decided which should become greater of the two. This was the last of the battles fought by Kamehameha to unite the islands. He now had brought Hawaii, Maui, Molokai, Lanai, and Oahu under one rule, with Kauai and Niihau under another ruler." -S.M. Kamakau</span></div>

His kahuna, Kuakahela jumped overboard, swam to shore, and hid under the floor mats of the tabu house of Keku'iapoiwa. Pauli Ka'oleioku, Kamehameha's first born son that he had when he was young. Was on another canoe with all of the people that Keoua knew would be spared.

Kamehameha promised that no more blood shed would occur and they landed safely in peace. Keoua's body would be placed as a sacrifice in Pu'u Kohola Heiau. Thus honoring the gods and paving the way for Kamehameha to fulfill his destiny as ruler of the entire island and then unite the archipelago under one rule. Some say Keoua knew of his fate and actually mutilated his face in order to taint his body as a sacrifice. Both of these great men were standing at the precipice of destiny on that day.

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The last place I came to visit had special meaning to me. I have been learning about the presence of the living god Jehova within the Pacific rim in Olelo Hawai'i class. Or at least the knowledge of the most high in the old days before church and the western religions were established. So I wished to see the place where the first missionaries landed in Kailua, Kona. Fact.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">After observing Kamehameha doing his religious rites to his gods, Vancouver realized that Kamehameha was a religious man at the very core. These gods after all were the ones that aided him to power. Vancouver asked him if he wanted to request King George to send missionary "kahunas" to come at teach him and the people about the true god. Not made out of wood but in heaven. Kamehameha denied the request.</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Things would quickly change after Kamehameha's passing. As if the islands were preparing for the coming of Jehovah. The kapu system was abolished, first with the 'Ai Noa with Liholiho and Ka'ahumanu eating together, then the battle at Kuamo'o. Keaoua Kekuakalani, Kamehameha's nephew inherited care of his uncles gods and Liholiho inherited the kingdom. As Kamehameha inherited Kalaniopu'u's god and Keoua inherited the kingdom. Keaoua and those trying to preserve the kapu system were obliterated by Kalanimoku's military devises. Thus paving the way or another religion. Had the missionaries came any earlier, they might have been under a great opposition from the ruling ali'i and people of the land. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Hewahewa, Kamehameha's kahuna nui would undoubtedly have had the most power with the old religion. Although he is rarely mentioned during the overthrow of the kapu system. He had a foresight that was ready for the coming of the "akua in the black box". He had a vision of the coming of this god and pointed out the god would land on. A pohaku in the shape of a Honu(located on the map above). The black box being a chest containing the bible. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here is the prayer of Hewahewa. It is the first known prayer in the Hawaiian language recognizing Jehovah and Jesus. This was uttered and recorded before the missionaries arrived. We can only assume that when he described these beings, that either John Young or Isaac Davis realized that he was talking about Jehovah and Jesus. Thus aiding in his correct terminology of characters theoretically unknown in this part of the world at the time... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kumu Kaipo'i taught me this prayer and he mentioned how it can be used in the darkest of times for the bringing of light. I have been taught at a young age not to use repetitive prayers and speak from the heart. So as to keep your true feelings within them but this prayer in the language of the land is very compelling and very powerful, I must admit.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">A classmate of mine at Olelo Hawai'i is a direct descendant to Hewahewa and I swear he would be a perfect person to use as an actor if they ever made a movie of Kamehameha. He came here recently and uttered the prayer of Hewahewa in the exact spot of the landing of the missionaries. He said he said he saw some uhu swimming just beyond the break wall and knew where to stand. The fresh water from the mountains are supposed to seep into the ocean at the same spot. So fish come here often. The uhu were green when he started but he said when the prayer ended he saw a red uhu jump out of the water! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">My visit and prayer was a little different. After driving all of those miles with my in-laws throwing all types of vibes along with the heavy vog. I felt like my mind wasn't there and ready to do what I cam to do. My brother in-law, Victor came with me while the women stayed in the car anticipating the long drive back to Hilo to catch our flight. I softly uttered the words above. Nothing spectacular happened in my observance. I did get splashed by a wave that hit my camera. maybe like rain at a wedding, that was the blessing. I will return if I am ever back on the island and take my time and absorb the whole thing in the moment with an "ike bomb"</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This past Saturday <a href="http://www.hokulea.com/blog/" target="_blank">Hokule'a</a> was on schedule to leave for it's world wide journey along with the Hikianalia. I blasted over to the Sand Island bridge after work on my bike. The parking was a mad house and so was the crowd at the pier. I took what images I could of the vessels and then tried to concentrate on the people themselves. How the crew was preparing, sharing information, and how the crowd was reacting to this momentous occasion. Here is all I have. May their journey be safe and may the knowledge of our past be preserved throughout the world.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I played hooky again last week Saturday! The Ko'olaupoko Hawaiian Civic Club hosted a "Legends Of Ko'olau" tour along Kaneohe Bay aboard glass bottom boat.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The check in desk for the tour had this enlarged map of the Ko'olaupoko district. With names of the actual archaeological sites. Maps like these can be seen in the "Sites of Oahu" book, but they are only numbered and one must match up the description of the numbered site in the chapters text for each district. Some with no further description to match the number. Before I explain further, let me just say this was the most informative part of this whole tour and I will be using their map to help locate and visit other sites in the future.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">At about 10am we left Heeia Pier. A woman from the civic club began with an opening ole that was said to have helped welcome and open our minds to the tour. Another gentleman took the mic and gave us a quick intro of the tour. Finally Mahealani Cypher took over the mic and hosted most of the tour. We were invited out to the deck of the boat for the remainder of the tour.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">She was a little flustered and seemed to be blasting through everything very quickly without mentioning fine details of her mo'olelo. As she mentioned to me that she had forgot her notes below deck, and there were too much people in the way to get them back. Right off the bat I recognized some of her stories as they are told in the "Sites of Oahu" book. She did put her own personal spin in them and it was a very wonderful thing to be looking directly at the places within the story as she told them.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">One of the first landmarks was Pu'u Ma'eli'eli, a shoreline ridge rising above the boundary of He'eia and Kahaluu. Hina-aka-malama (there were many related women named Hina during that period) was attempting to escape to the moon as her husband grabbed her leg while she ascended. Her leg broke off becoming the hill and she arrived at the moon maimed. She is connected in lineage to Kahai the famous explorer from Hawaii. That journeyed to Kahiki and possibly further than any ancient traveler from Hawaii in ancient times. Kahai is credited with travelling to the maelstroms of Norway! On his return he was the one to bring back Lepo-ai the edible mud and deposited it into Kawainui Marsh. Kahai was said to have dwelt in Hakipu'u for a time but is to have been laid to rest in Iao Valley, Maui.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kahaluu with its swirling rains and the surrounding lands are abundant in water resources. Extensive terracing could be found in mostly all of the valleys in Ko'olaupoko. Just off shore from Kahaluu was the small island named Ahu O' Laka I couldn't get a clear picture of it from the boat deck but it looked like a perfect circle off reef and sand lying just under the surface of the water. It was a shrine in memorial of the burial of a ancient cheif of the district, Laka. Dredging covered the small island in sand and now it only breaks the surface at extreme low tides. This is one of the places where locals visit on weekends and holidays and hang out on the "sandbar"</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Waihee is named after the black ink of a large squid that was killed on shore as it attacked a mute traveler bound for Kahiki to find a wife that could heal him, Keakaoku. Mahealani had a pretty recent story that I'm sure I'm gonna say incorrectly but here we go. Someone told her that their grandfather told them a story about seeing a large He'e in modern times. The large squid came out of Molii Fishpond and crept over its walls toward Moolii Island (Chinaman's Hat) and climbed up the hill completely covering it!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Kohoe, a farmer that grew sweet potato in the hills of Haiku. Pahu, a fisherman that lived on a small hill near the bay, and Lo'e their sistar that lived on "Coconut Island". Lo'e would keep relations close by being the one to trade a basket of fish from Pahu for a basket of cooked sweet potato from Kahoe. Pahu would see Kahoe's fire on the mountain when he was cooking his harvest and sometimes get lazy and trade his bait fish for a full basket of sweet potato. Lo'e realizing that this was about to cause a separation of their good relations. Taught Kahoe to cook his harvest but cover the fire with ti leafs. That way only the steam of the fire would rise and seem to be a mist or cloud of the Ko'olau. Pahu couldn't tell every time his brother was cooking and so he didn't ask for too much food in an uneven trade ever since.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The highest mountain peak in Kaneohe on the Ko'olau is named Keakiakahoe, the fire of Kahoe.

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Just as the tour came to an end, Mahealani busted out the "big guns". I guess there were some colleges of her that requested to hear more mo'olelo about some wahi pana. One of the most sacred places on the island is that of Mokapu peninsula. The creation of the first man was supposedly here and then the first woman was made from his shadow. Only royalty lived in that area and many burials remain there although many have been disturbed. Some members below deck were actually related to those that are buried here, although they passed on the mic when they were offered it. I have to give The Ko'olaupoko Civic Club a lot of respect for what they have been able to keep sacred in their district. I read about how native Hawaiians were allowed to return to Mokapu after the military took control of it for the Kaneohe Marine Base. Near the shore at Pyramid Rock on the Heeia ahupuaa side of Mokapu, they rediscovered two important pohaku that were disturbed and lost in the early days of occupation. These were the Ku and Hiwa stones that now lay near the shore. There is a high precipice that is named Kahekili's Leap. There are others named so on other islands as Kahekili II was a thrill seeker and cliff diver that I must say much of the youth nowadays still enjoy as if his spirit lives on through them. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Another strange factoid that must be somehow figured out through sharing and collaborating of storytelling is that name, Mokapu. As there are sacred islands at each corner of Polynesia named the same thing. Easter Island(Rapa Nui) and New Zealand(Aotearoa) has a Motapu (pronounced Mokapu in Hawaiian) within their mo'olelo of old...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The last mind blower was when Mahealani mentioned Naonealaa at the request of someone on the boat. I have been researching that sacred wahi pana for months now. The Koolaupoko Civic Club is actually planning on placing a visitor information sign highlighting Naonealaa at the place where it was supposed to be located at.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I was there a few months ago trying to tie the place together physically to Hawea Heiau, as they might be in story. I had a unfinished section on this subject just idle in the editing stage until I combined it with this one right now for you to finally read.

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Mahealani blew my mind when she said that La'a was summoned from far lands in Kahiki to replace Olopana after he fell to Kamapua'a. Her story goes that Olopana was situated at <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2014/03/kawaewae-heiau.html" target="_blank">Kawa'ewa'e Heiau </a> and that is where the commoners came to make their disputes about the goings on near their homes to the ali'i. Kamapua'a was basically a chicken thief when he started out, some say he was the rejected child of Olopana and that Olopana named him Hog Child. He stole from and disrupted many households on Oahu. The people were getting fed up and came to Olopana for help. It wasn't until Kamapua'a personally stole from Olopana. That the Ali'i finally decided to capture Kamapuaa with a net so that he couldn't escape by shapeshifting. Kamapuaa would end up being the victor and then would move to other islands in the pacific building his legendary status. Thus La'a of Kahiki was summoned to be the head of the Maweke line of rulers on Oahu because of his close relationship with the original settlers of the Moikeha family.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Ha'ikamalama, a man that lived at Hanauma was the first to hear the coming of La'a's Waka canoe coming from the ocean. He heard the little drum and the big drum on the ocean. (Possibly the drum Hawea as La'a is credited with bringing it to Hawaii where it would finally be set up for announcing births at Kukaniloko, also set up at Kualoa although there are other names of drums at that place as well). Ha'ikamalama copied the beat of the drums by pounding on his chest with his fingers. He sailed to Makapu'u and spotted the wa'a of La'a. Figuring that they were headed to land in the bay of Kaneohe. He took to land and travelled to Kaneohe to met them at the shore at wai hau palu. Before they landed he welcomed and beat the rhythm he heard them making out in sea and chanted to Kupa. La'a and the crew was astonished that he knew their song and even their names already from their song at sea. La'a threw out some sand from Kahiki where they touched ground. Naonealaa, the sand of La'a.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Another important event at the same exact spot was the meeting and truce of Peleioholani and Alapai. Both armies met on January 1737, ending a war that could have enveloped all of the islands in blood. Peleioholani the son of Kuali'i, the Ali'i Nui of Oahu and its conquered lands of Kauai and Molokai. Alapai of the Mahi famliy, the Ali'i Aimoku of Hawaii Island before Kalanimoku and Kamehameha. The later had his war canoes landed from Mokapu all the way to Naonealaa. When they met Peleioholani was advised by his counselor Naili, that when they met and kissed and hugged. That he let Alapai place his arms below his as they embrace. "Lest he gain the victory over you" -Kamakau. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">McAllister placed the house site at the home of David Trask. I couldnt' find anything on that property. Kaneohe Beach Park does have a small rise with peculiar level changes on the mauka side of the park. I went another level and approached a house on the other side of the street to ask if they knew anything about at least where the Trask home was. McAllister also mentions a couple of stone and coral circles that were found on the property. That house across the street had a formation of coral stones on the side of the house. Although the gentleman there directed me toward the opposite side of the park. The Habilitat property was on that side. It's where people can go for aid in recovering from drug addictions. I had a very hard time trying to physically ask someone about the place the last two times I've attempted. I finally wised up and got their contact info. I left a message with the receptionist one day and a man by the name of Jeff Nash called me back. Jeff is the project manager and explained to me that due to the sensitive environment of the people there they couldn't just let anyone show up unannounced. I straight up thought it was mafia before I looked up the place. I was afraid when I left one day because they wrote down all of my personal information even though all I did was turn my car around in the parking lot that day.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He told me the historic the facts he knew about the Habilitat property. After the war department sold it off. Lyman Bigelow, a civil engineer bought the property and willed it to his daughter, who's family evetually sold it to Habilitat. No knowledge of the Traks Property.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Jeff was a very enthusiastic guy over the phone. I explained to him what I do on my free time and told him the last tow mo'olelo I shared to you on here. He had some of his own too. Once they decided to cut down a large banyan tree in the middle of the property because it's roots were raising the sidewalk next to it. Some local people came over in the following days and told them they shouldn't because it was, "the queen's tree". Habilitat decided to keep the tree. I wonder if that was the Koolaupoko Civic Club that ? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Another story he had was that an expert in teaching the ho'o ponopono way of living there to help the people there. He told Jeff in a very meaningful way, that where they were was a very special place. Jeff put two and two together as if what we were talking about finally came together and he was very excited. He even asked me to come over one day and share some stories with the people there. I hope I can build my knowledge and storytelling ability enough to take him up on that offer one day.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I think I finally found Kaheiki Heiau here in lower Nuuanu. Just a few yards down stream from Kapena Falls. If you have been following my posts from the recent months, you know I've been trying to see it for myself for some time.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I finally took Jan Becket's advise about where he thinks it is. The last time I tried to get there I couldn't figure out a way down the slope of Pacific Heights at the foot of the pagoda lookout. One day I was riding my bike around Pauoa and asked a gentleman named Albert living out of his van. If he ever heard of the heiau. He came off pretty harsh at first but after realizing my interest in local lore. He simply described that I should go to Kapena falls and head down stream. There I should find what I was looking for...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I parked at the Pali Hwy. Pagoda lookout as if I was heading to Kapena Falls, and I noticed an extra trail before reaching the guard rail section that leads to the falls. This trail is somewhat up kept because of the homeless living in tents beside the stream.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">When I got down to the stream level I noticed two tiers of rock walls covered in overgrowth with a somewhat flat surface in between about 20'x50'. A couple of tents remained in shambles and rubbish littering the area. It is almost unbelievable that a heiau would be here. I am inclined to believed it is Kaheiki Heiau though. I have been up and down this stream and these walls of stone seem uniform to traditional Hawaiian structures. More than any other structure that could be found from Kapena Falls to Judd Street with uniform sized stones and such. I doubted it's close proximity to the stream at first so I thought that maybe the heiau was actually further up hill as others say. Although, this heiau site seems to be far enough above the highest water level and almost exactly where it should be when stories of the area are considered. It would take a lot of cleaning and clearing for any photos to convince anyone of it. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The last mention of Kaheiki describes it as the location of the battle between Mo'i of Oahu Kahahana and Mo'i of Maui Kahekili II. There are though, older stories of it's forthcoming at the hands of the menehune. It was made for Kahanaiakeakua the Ali'i raised by the gods. Possibly related to Kawaluna Heiau in Waolani at the time of construction. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Another story is that of Kaupe. Kaupe was a kupua that was in dog form. It troubled the people of Oahu and so a chief came to Kaheiki to ask for help from the kapuna of the heiau, Kahilona. Kahilona offered a prayer that could be said to protect oneself against the onslaught of Kaupe. Is it a coincidence that the dog images of the Nuuanu Petroglyphs are right on the other side of the stream and more located just below the heiau? </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On the last Saturday of April. A commemoration takes place in honor of the Battle of Nu'uanu that happened in 1795. This was the last battle that occurred in the conquest of uniting the islands under one kingdom (Aside from the civil wars of Humehume for inheriting Kauai, and Kekuaokalani for keeping the Kapu system. Although Hawaii was already united during those rebellions. Besides Kamehameha returning from Oahu briefly to Hilo to put down an uprising be Namakeha) </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The battle of Nuuanu was fought between the forces of Kamehameha and Kalanikupule. At the time of this culmination of the era of warring chiefs. Relations between them were also culminating since the days of old. To a point where some chiefs involved in these battles involved had to make the decision to which side they would support. One such chief was Ka'iana, he fought along side Kalanikupule. Even though he was with Kamehameha all of the way up to the point where they sailed off from Molokai to battle Oahu. Ka'iana was said to have made his last stand as Kalanikupule's forces were routed in La'imi near Nuuanu Reservoir 2. Kalanikupule was lucky enough to evade capture for a little over a year. Until finally being found in the mountains of the Ewa district and then sacrificed to the war god of Kamehameha, Kuka'ilimoku. Contained at Waipio in Ha'ena Heiau. All others were pursued to the bottle neck of the Pali. Although many say that the opposition to Kamehameha was pushed off the cliff in what some call Kaleleka'anae "the leaping mullet". A more accurate description explains that the commoners that were ahead of the battle and trying to separate themselves from the battle were caught in a human stampede at the narrow pass of the Nuuanu pali. The narrow and dangerous trail could only allow two people at a time at the most, in the commotion of the nearing battle. Many were forced off the cliff as everyone scurried to get to the Ko'olau side of the trail. Kamehameha is not responsible for that loss of life. He did not even pursue the remnants of the battle to the pali. Instead he is said to have stopped at Kaniakapupu where he enacted the Malamahoe. Choosing to save the lives of his opposition instead of kill them all off. This is how descendants of Kalanikupule remain till this day. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Of the forces of Kalanikupule, Koalaukani was to have escaped to Kauai. Kepo'oloku, Kalola Ihuka'ika'i, Ka'eleowaipi'o, their followers, and many others were taken prisoner. They had the hope of salvation if they had approached Ka'ahumanu because she was a live and walking Pu'uhonua.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I first learned about the ceremony to commemorate the Battle of Nu'uanu only last week by Kamana'o. Since the 200th anniversary date in 1995. There has been a group here on the last April of the month holding this important commemoration every year. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehYr-eVPo1w" target="_blank">Sam Ohu' Gon II</a>I was the host, if I can call him that.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I showed up around the start at 5:30am. Still dark out, I made a stupid decision to turn on the flash in my camera. It caused a quick commotion with the old timers and I was approached by a couple of women that asked me not to do so. After that I seemed to be rolling in on a bad vibe as another person came out and told me not to take any pictures. Although there were others around doing the same thing. I apologize to anyone I may have offended that has found this blog and is reading it right now. I will not apologize for sharing knowledge of this momentous event though. Although I would recommend anyone planning to attend the commemoration in the future to be very respectful and to park further away from the parking lot to allow the older aunties and uncles to park close and have a closer walk for them. Onlookers should also stay a comfortable distance from the actual event partakers. Be silent and mindful unless you are compelled to join in with some of the oli being sung or if you have a traditional ho'okupu offering along with a personal oli to present.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Here are my photos of this powerful commemoration. It was very awe inspiring to say the least. Everyone was so beautiful in their traditional outfits and their eloquent language. It made me proud to be who I am and gave me faith that our past and future has been through so much turmoil but at the relief of a goal of true enlightenment. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On Friday morning I found myself with some spare time while riding to work in the morning. So I decided that instead of riding my normal route past Kaiser Hospital into Aiea. I went into Moanalua Valley and rode up to the spot where Pohaku Ka Luahine rests beside Moanalua Stream.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I have already covered this pohaku in an earlier post about <a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2013/02/moanalua-valley.html" target="_blank">Moanalua Valley's</a> historical hike. There is an information board on the opposite side of the stream overlooking Pohaku Kaluahine. Explaining it's earlier known legends and touching briefly on it's similarity to those of the bird men of Rapa Nui. Most times, petroglyphs have no explanation or pattern that can be exactly deciphered to reveal an ancient truth to us modern day witnesses of them. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">There are some bird headed huminoid figures carved into this pohaku. On the Hawaii Tourism info board, they show two other pokahu. One found deeper in the valley that I have not yet seen. The other, a smaller pohaku that was found near the stream and presently located at the<a href="http://pohukainacave.blogspot.com/2013/10/museum-friday_12.html" target="_blank"> Bishop Museum</a>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"> The smaller pohaku in Bishop Museum depicts two humanoid figures protruding outward from the stone's surface. Unlike most others found in the Hawaiian archipelago. All others being carved into the stone instead of coming outward. The Tourist information board justly relates the images to those found at Rapa Nui because of that similar style. Sites on Easter Island, one of the the furthest points of the Polynesian triangle. Reveal outward petroglyphs that are painstakingly carved from around the subject matter. As apposed to the image itself being carved into the surface.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">This past Thursday at Olelo Hawaii Class, Kumu Kaipo'i brought out a <a href="http://shop.nationalgeographic.com/ngs/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=6301014&green=A9970022-0F28-5363-B3F8-5C94F8C023A2" target="_blank">National Geographic</a> book from his classroom book shelf. This book about planets has a section showing the dwarf planets Haumea and Makemake. Orbiting our solar system far off in the Kuiper Belt past Pluto, in vastness of space terms.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Haumea is familiar to Hawaiians. Makemake though, we have words in the Hawaiian language that could give you our meaning of it like, desire. He aha ka makemake, what do you desire?</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makemake_(mythology)" target="_blank">Makemake</a> was a god to the Tangata Manu at Rapa Nui. Their petroglyphs depict makemake as a humanoid figure for the most part. Rapa Nui's Makemake is very similar to Hawaii's, I'o. Rapa Nui's indigenous people sometimes claim that they come from "Hawaiki". As Hawaii relates they come from "Kahiki". If we look back at the stories passed down from Rapa Nui. The first settler of the island was a navigator by the name of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotu_Matu%27a" target="_blank">Hotu Matua</a> that landed his waka at Anakena in Rapa Nui. From Hiwa, the Marquesas Islands. The first wave of people to have come to Hawaii were to have come from the Marquesas too. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Rapa Nui has a strong background with the culture of the banana. They still practice events which look similar to our Holua slide, but instead they used Banana tree stumps. There is also a written language that emerged from Rapa Nui, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rongorongo" target="_blank">Rongorongo</a>. Using an organic style hieroglyph, but still more similar to that of a petroglyph of Hawaii. It is said to have evolved from writing on Banana leaves. The only evidence of them are a small number of wooden artifacts scattered throughout private collections across the world originating at Rapa nui.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">In ancient times, Hawai'i was said to have had a race of men called the <span class="highlight" style="font-size: 14px; text-align: start;">Mū</span><span style="font-size: 14px; text-align: start;"> ʻai maiʻa, The Banana eating Mu. Mu can mean silent, gather, an executioner, a konane game (a konane board is also pecked into Pohaku Ka Luahine), animals like the big eye emporor fish, a small yellow bird, and a destructive wood eating insect.</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The Mu were considered a secretive group that could have been the builders of the first fishponds and heiau. They are spoken of in legends as close as Nuuanu during the war with another menehune group named the Wa. They quarreled over possession of the Pohaku Umeume which is said to still reveal the hand prints of both parties as they struggled over it. The menehune are also credited with building famous a fishpond in Kauai. A study was conducted with people from a certain area in Kauai that claimed descent from the Menehune and they were proven to actually be related to that line. So there, some of the Mu must have stayed in Hawaii to share the knowledge they brought from far away lands. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">On the opposite side of the coin. The Mu were sometimes chosen to be the ones that were sacrificed. The legends of drowning at Kewalo for sacrifice at Puowaina. May have been them being sacrificed. This takes eveything covered so far into account. You see, at the time of the navigators of this Banana eating group arriving in the lands of Rapa Nui, and even said to be at Aotearoa. Another group and practice of a different religion was arriving in Hawaii. Pa'ao and his religion of sacrifice and kapu. </span></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: 14px;"><span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Could it be that the cultures worshiping I'o and Makemake were desendants of those that fled human sacrifice? This would finalize what would later be known as the Polynesian triangle. Hawaii, New Zealand, and Easter Island.</span></span></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">For some light, "heavy" reading please refer to these debating theories of the connection of Supreme gods in Hawaiian culture with these two links <a href="http://perpetuatedinrighteousness.com/" target="_blank">[1]</a>, <a href="http://www.letusreason.org/Current68.htm" target="_blank">[2]</a></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">(the second one sounds like a good argument besides the part where he mentions, "Speaking of the Maori tribes “<i>most priests of 'Io believed revealing this knowledge meant death</i>!” (<i>Perpetuated in Righteousness</i> p.65) Why would turning people to a true worship have such a penalty, the fact is the Bible says the opposite about knowing the true God." </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Umm, as history has proved. People are killed all of the time in the name of religion. Especially when you tell a group that you know a the true god. which may not be the one they are worshiping...</span></div>
