Lci:^cnd of Haii-aii-loa. 270 



After Hawaii Loa had been some time in tliis country ( Hawaii nei ), he made an- 

 other voyage to find his lirothers, and to see if tliey had any chikh'en wlio might become 

 husl:)ands or wives for his own. On this voyage he fell in with his younger brother Ki, on 

 the island of Tahiti, where Ki had settled and called it after one of his own names. 

 Then Hawaii Loa and Ki sailed together to the southward (;' ka mole ka Iioinia), there 

 they found an uninhabited island which Hawaii Loa called after his own name, and an- 

 other smaller island which he called after his daughter, "Oahu." 



When they had finished their business here they returned to Hawaii and the 

 Hoku-Iwa stars and the Hoku Polio ka Aina, were those that they steered by. On his 

 outward voyage from Hawaii the star called Ke Alii o Kona-i-ka-Lewa and the stars of 

 the Hoku-kea o ka Mole Honua (Southern Cross) were those by which he shaped his 

 course for Tahiti and those other islands. They left from Lae o Kalae in Kau ( south 

 cape of Hawaii), and thither they returned. 



When Hawaii Loa thus returned he brought with him Tu-nui-ai-a-te-Atua the 

 first-born son of his brother Ki, and he became the husband of his favorite daughter Oahu. 

 These two had afterwards a child called Ku Nui Akea who was born at Keauhou, in 

 Puna, Hawaii. Puna was then a fertile and fine country and it was called Puna by Ku 

 nui ai a ke Akua after his own birthplace, Puna-Auia, in Tahiti. 



T,2. Kunuiakea, on both father's- and mother's side became a chief of the very 

 highest rank (ka/^ii loa). k'rom him sprang the race of chiefs here in Hawaii (zarlo 

 olii). and from Makalii sprang the race of the common people (ivclo kanaka). The 

 first has been kept separate from the most ancient times, and the second has been kept 

 separate from the time of chaos (iiiai ka Pa niai). But the priestly race (zvclo kahu- 

 na) was one and the same with the race of chiefs from the beginning. 



AA'hen Hawaii Loa arrived here, as before observed, there were only the two is- 

 lands of Hawaii-Loa and of Maui-ai-Alii ; but during his time and close afterwards the 

 volcanoes on Hawaii and on Maui began their eruptions ; and earthquakes and convul- 

 sions produced or brought to light the other islands. 



Kunuiakea's son Ke Lii Alia, and his grandson Kemilia, were born at Tahiti 

 along with the Aoa, the royal tree; but his great grandson, Ke Lii Ku ( Kleeleualani ), was 

 born on Hawaii. 



35. Kleeleualani was the grandfather of Papa-Nui-Hanau-Moku ( w ). His wife 

 was called Ka Oupe Alii and was a daughter of Kupukupunuu from Ololoimehani (sup- 

 posed to be either a name for the island of Nuuhiwa, or of a place on that island). They 

 had a son called Kukalani-ehu, whose wife was Ka Haka-ua-Koko, the sixth descendant 

 from Makalii, and they two were the parents of Papa-Nui (w). 



37. Papa-Nui-Hanau-Moku (w). She first married Wakea, who was the son of 

 Kahiko (k) and Tupu-rana-i-te-hau (w) who was a Tahitian woman. Papa's first child 

 with Wakea was a daughter called Hoohokukalani. 



Papa, having quarreled with W'akea on account of their daughter, went to Tahiti 

 and th.ere she took to Te Rii P'anau for husband and had a son called Te Rii i te Haupoi- 

 poi. She afterwards returned to Hawaii under the name of Huhune and had a son 

 with Waia and called his name Hinanalo. Domestic troubles now made her crazy and 

 she returned to Tahiti where she had another son with Te Arii Aumai, who was said to
