kiko zvacna" — and situated in Kahiki-ku which was a large and extensive continent. It 

 was also called Aina Eepa a Kane ; Aina wai-Akiia a Kane ; also Kahiki-ku. 



Kahiki-ku was also called Aina apaapaa a Kane on account of its size and vast 

 dimensions. It was situated to the eastward, and it was there where the gods com- 

 menced their creations, hence in olden times the sun (ka la ) was called "he .-llaiiiii liclc a 

 Kane." and the west was called "Jic Alanu'i ka make." 



In olden times the front of the dwelling houses was turned to the east, as a sign of 

 the Kane worship ; and one door or opening was turned to the west in remembrance of 

 Hawaii-Loa or, as he is called Ke Kowa i Hawaii, who came from the westwai'd and dis- 

 covered or settled on Hawaii, and afterwards returned to the westward, going to Kahiki- 

 ku. 



Kalana i Hauola was also called Aina Luana or Aina Lauana a Kane; also the 

 Aina wai ola a Kane. This "ivai ola" or living water was a running stream, or overflow- 

 ing spring (ivai kahe), attached to or enclosed in a pond (loko). It was a beautiful 

 transparent clear water. The banks of the pond were splendid. It had three outlets, one 

 for Ku, one for Kane and one for Lono, and through these outlets the fish entered in the 

 pond. If the fish of the pond were thrown on the ground or on the fire, they did not die. 

 If a man had been killed and was sprinkled over with this water he would soon come to 

 life again. According to the ancient worship of Hawaii water and salt were objects of 

 special solicitude. The priests mixed water and salt and prayed over it and it then 

 became a sort of Holy water, a water of purification etc. in remembrance of the pond of 

 living water in the Aina wai ola a Kane. 



That land was also called the Aina wauke kapu a Kane, because that wauke was 

 planted by Kane for clothing for the first people, Lepo Ahuln (k) and Lalo Ahulu (w) 

 — Kumu Honua and Lalo Honua. 



This land was also called ".-Una u^ai lepolepo kuiiiii honua a Kane," because man 

 was formed out of moistened earth. When man was formed, Ku and Kane spat in 

 his nostrils, and Lono spat in his mouth, and the earth model became a living being. 

 This name was also applied to the entire earth as well as to the particular "Kalana i Hau- 

 ola." When people died they were said to have gone to the muddy waters of Kane ("iia 

 hoi i ka Ti'a/ Icpolepo a Kane") In its wider sense, as the residence of Kumu Honua, 

 after he was turned out of Kalani i Hauola, it applied to the land adjoining the latter. 

 In this sense it was also called "Aina kahiko a Kane." It was situated to the eastward 

 of Kalana i Hauola, because the chants, prayers, and legends attest that the emigrants 

 from there found land in going to the eastward and that new land they called "na Aina i 

 kuhtna kai inaokioki a Kane" and that great ocean "Ka Moana kai Jiiaokioki a Kane," 

 and also "Ka Moana kai Popolo." And it is equally certain that when they returned to 

 the Aina Kahiko or to Kahikiku they shaped their course to the westward. 



When Kumu Honua was turned out of Kalana i Hauola, he went to live on an is- 

 land or in a district, which was called after him Kumu Honua Moku]nini. He after- 

 wards returned to the mainland of Kapakapaua a Kane and there he died and was buried 

 on top of a high hill called Kumu Honua Puu, where multitudes of his descendants were 

 also buried. And when in after ages room became scarce in that cemetery only the bones 

 of the head and of the back-bone ("na anhau" ) were buried there, and hence it was
