PLATE 2. 



Hawaiian Ie Kuku or Kapa Beaters. 



No. 193 is a marked specimen of the lialua koeau pattern exceedingly well 

 carved. 



No. 2845 is the only beater of this peculiar pattern iu the Museum collection, 

 and there is also a kapa beaten with it that is by no means new although in good 

 condition. The halua pawehe niho niano or shark tooth design gives a good sur- 

 face to the kapa. 



No. 284 shows a favorite pattern, especially on Kauai, with the lines so deeply 

 cut as to appear made Ijy a saw, but probably a shark tooth cutter could do as 

 clean work. 



No. 8673 is a fine specimen of the hoopai pattern.
