Malae came to begin the
ceremonies generally performed
before human sacrifices were to
be offered; this was, to prepare
for the offering of the two
prisoners. While the two were
approaching the steps leading to
the altar, Kamapuaa was
unwound and placed on the
anuu. 27 Behold he was above
Olopana and the priest. At this
particular time, as the two were
facing each other, both naked,
reciting the prayer, and while in
the midst of it, Kamapuaa
opened his eyes wide, when he
was seen by Malae and
Olopana, standing above them.
At sight of him they became
possessed of a great fear, so
much so that they could not run.
Kamapuaa then, while on the
platform, prayed, invoking his
several supernatural bodies and
all his gods to come to his aid. At
the close of the prayer the
outside of the temple was filled
with the gods and hogs.
Kamapuaa then called out to the
priest, Lonoaohi, saying: [326]
Say, Lonoaohi,
e kai ka aha a maikai, no ke kau
ana o ke kanaka i ka lele ke ao
ae. Ia laua e hele mai ana e hiki i

Kamapuaa a kau i luna o ka

ke kahuna ia Lonoaohi: [327]
E Lonoaohi e!
Kaupale ka imu,
Place the rocks on the side of
the umu,
Place them here and there.
At this call Lonoaohi came out of
the house where he was held,
and stood up a flag; a sign that
those who came under its
protection would be saved from
death. Shortly after this the
slaughter began and everybody
was killed by Kamapuaa,
excepting Makalii, who ran and
got in between the legs of
Kamaunuaniho. This was how
Olopana was killed by
Kamapuaa, and how Oahu came
into his possession.
CHAPTER III.
Relating to the Battle Between
Kamapuaa and Lonokaeho.—The
Second Battle.—Battle
Between Kamapuaa and
Kuilioloa.
Kahiki 28 was the land in which
Ohi aku ohi mai.

MOKUNA III.
No ka Hoouka Kaua ana o
Kamapuaa me Lonokaeho, o ka
Lua keia.—Kaua o Kamapuaa me
Kuilioloa.
O Kahiki ka aina o Lonokaeho,
Lonokaeho lived, and he was
king of one side of the island
while Kowea was the king on the
other. These two kings were at
war with each other all the time
and battles were fought every
day. Kowea was the father-in-law
of Kamapuaa, for Kamapuaa,
upon his arrival in Kahiki, took
the daughters of Kowea to be his
wives. One day Kamapuaa said
to Kowea: “I am going to meet
Lonokaeho in battle and I want
you to watch the fire when it is lit.
If the smoke rises and leans
toward the sea, 29 I have killed
Lonokaeho; but if the smoke
should lean toward the upland,
then I have been killed by him.”
That night Kamapuaa slept till
daylight the next morning, when
he arose and proceeded to the
place where Lonokaeho was
living. He arrived before
Lonokaeho was up, so he called
out:
Ye Kahiki, sleep on!
Ye Kahiki, sleep on!
Ye Kahiki, sleep on!
Ye Kahiki, awake, 30
Ye Kahiki, awake,
Gird on the loin cloth,
ke ’lii ma kekahi aoao, a o

he kaua ma waena o laua i na la

Kamapuaa makuahunowai, nana
ka Kamapuaa wahine i kona hiki

Kowea: “Ke hele nei au e kaua

ahi ke a. I pii ka uwahi i luna a
moe i kai, ua make o Lonokaeho
ia’u. Aka i pii ka uwahi a moe i
uka ua make au ia Lonokaeho.”
Ia po, moe iho la o Kamapuaa a
ao, hele aku la ia a hiki i kahi o
Lonokaeho e noho ana. Aole i
ala ka hiamoe, kahea iho o
Kamapuaa:
E moe e Kahiki e!

Let the hand seize the club,
Strike the head 31 shedding many
tears,
Give the land,
The isle shall be possessed by
Kowea, 32
The whole of Kahiki, yes, the
whole.
When Lonokaeho heard the call
of Kamapuaa, he made reply: “Is
the giving away of my land any
of your rights? Where are you
from? Why don’t you come and
meet me face to face and then
let us fight? If I am killed then my
land shall be taken away
[328]from me.” Kamapuaa
consented to this, saying: “Yes.”
Kamapuaa then approached
nearer to Lonokaeho and when
he was up to him, Lonokaeho
showed Kamapuaa his method
of attack.

lonokaeho.
Lonokaeho had eight foreheads
which were very sharp and could
come down like so many axes.

These foreheads were up in the
heaven called Kuanuenue and
Leleianaha. Lonokaeho had
entertained the idea that at sight
of his foreheads Kamapuaa
would be frightened away, but
instead of showing fear
Kamapuaa called out to his gods
by their names, as follows:

When Kamapuaa ceased calling
for his gods, he and Lonokaeho
began a hand to hand fight.
Lonokaeho then let his eight
foreheads 41 fall on Kamapuaa,
thinking they would chop him to
death. When Kamapuaa saw the
foreheads coming down to strike
him, he called out to his gods,
Kuliaikekaua and others, to turn
the foreheads of Lonokaeho
[from him] and let them strike on
the lava rocks, which call was
obeyed and the foreheads came
down on the lava rocks where

made dull; furthermore, after a
time the foreheads were unable
to get up again to resume their
former place, because they were
held down by the power of
Kuliaikekaua and the others. At
this time Kamapuaa requested of
his supernatural bodies to grow
over the foreheads of
Lonokaeho, and at once the
puaakukui, puaauhaloa and
puaamaumau, 42 began to grow
all over the eight foreheads, thus
removing all the power and
strength from Lonokaeho. After
this the two fought with their
human forms, until Kamapuaa
requested of his hog forms to eat
up Lonokaeho and all his men.
In this way was Lonokaeho killed
by Kamapuaa. [332]

Kuilioloa was a dog 43 which had
a human body and had also
supernatural powers. He was a
great soldier and a famous
warrior. He was the strongest
man in his country and no one
was found who would face him.
Before Kamapuaa met Kuilioloa,
Kamapuaa had met his two
wives, and it was by these
women that Kamapuaa was
informed of their husband being
a dog, and how they feared
Kuilioloa. Because of their fear
they requested of Kamapuaa to
kill their husband and in that way
free them from him; and for this
service the two were willing to
become the wives of Kamapuaa
should he succeed in killing
Kuilioloa.
After this conversation between
them, Kuilioloa came home, and
upon seeing Kamapuaa his
countenance became changed,
his hair stood up, his upper jaw
went up and his lower jaw came
down and his teeth were
exposed. When Kamapuaa saw
the features of Kuilioloa, he
chanted the following mele:
No Kuilioloa. He ilio ia, he ano
kanaka a he ano akua. He kupu
a he koa no hoi no kona aina,
aohe mea pakele ia ia i ka make.

Bristling up.
He seems mad, yes,
He seems mad.
The toes are scratching,
The tail is twisting,
The eyes are threatening,
The teeth are exposed,
Ready to bite.
I am bitten,
I am bitten.
That is from you the dog,
Death is from me the hog.
After this Kamapuaa called for
his supernatural hog bodies, the
weeds, 44 kukui, the amaumau,
the uhaloa, to hold open the
mouth of Kuilioloa, that it could
not bite. The hogs then entered
the mouth of Kuilioloa and ate
his inwards until he was killed.

MOKUNA IV.
Kaua Eha a Kamapuaa me Pele.
Kamapuaa sailed for Hawaii and
in due course of time landed in
Puna; then he proceeded to
Kilauea, where Pele 45 and her
sisters and brothers were living.
When Kamapuaa arrived at
Kilauea he went and stood on a
point of land called Akanikolea,
looking down into the pit, a place
kapued by Pele for her own use.
It was on this point [334]that
Kamapuaa made his stand and
looked down into the pit, where
he saw the Hiiakas. They were
Hiiaka, Hiiakaikapuaaneane and
Hiiakaikapoliopele, the sisters of
Pele, sitting there below on the
floor of the pit of Kilauea
stringing leis. When Kamapuaa
saw them, he chanted these
words:
On the heights of Puuonioni
The company of women sat,
On the heights of Wahinekapu
On the peak of Kilauea.
Where sat Papalauahi,
For Pele throws her flames in
Puna.
For the lowlands at Malama are
covered with sands,
Keeping watch over them. Aloha.
Holo mai la o Kamapuaa i
Hawaii nei a pae ma Puna, pii

A ka luna i Puuonioni,
Noho ke anaina a ka wahine,

He oioina Kilauea,
He noho ana o Papalauahi,
Ke lauahi wale la no o Pele ia
Puna.
Ua one a kai o Malama,
E malama ana e, aloha.
When Kamapuaa was thus
chanting Pele heard it all, but
she pretended otherwise. She
then rolled herself in a cloak
made of mats and laid down by
the edge of the fire. She knew all
the time that it was Kamapuaa
that was chanting up there on
Akanikolea. Kamapuaa after a
pause chanted again:
It is from Puna that I have come
And I have seen the women
gathering 46 noni,
Scratching noni,
Pounding noni,
Marking with noni, 47
Kapunaiki the long man,
It was a long way for him to
travel,
He was lame,
He was stiff.
Arise. My greetings to you.
Pele then made answer from the
bottom of Halemaumau: “I would
get up if you were a man; but
being a hog I will not get up.”
The reason why Pele made this
reply was because Kamapuaa
had teased her as the woman
who was pounding noni. The real
meaning being that Pele had red
Ma keia oli ana o Kamapuaa, ua
lohe no o Pele, a he hookuli

O ke ano o ia, no ka makole o
eyes. This was the real meaning
of the chant of Kamapuaa.
After this chant Kamapuaa
asked of his gods: “Say, didn’t
she recognize me, for she said
that I was a hog?” The gods
replied: “Chant again.”
Kamapuaa then chanted:
By Makalii 48 the leaves of Puna
were made bitter,
The waters went by above
Kapapala.
The heavy rains fell at Hilo,
In Hilo and Puna the rains fell.
O Pele, let us make our abode
there,
And string the lehua at Hopoe. 49
[336]
You shall string them, I shall
wear them.
Arise. My greetings to you.
The sisters of Pele, Hiiaka and
the others, said to her: “Wake
up, why keep on lying down, and
look at that handsome man
standing there on the heights of
Akanikolea. Take a look at him,
for you can tell on sight whether
it is a big man, a small man, a

reply: “That hog that you are
mistaking for a man is not a
man; that is Kamapuaa the hog
grandson of Kamaunuaniho, the
son of Kahikiula and Hina.” The
sisters again said: “That
handsome man standing there
on Akanikolea, that you say is a
hog? You are an adept in lying.
We have seen hogs in the
lowlands of Puna, having the
body of a hog, feet of a hog,
head of a hog, eyes of a hog,
ears of a hog, snout of a hog and
everything else that belongs to a
hog; but nothing like that fellow
with a human form standing
there.” Pele replied: “That is a
hog; that is not a human being
which you see standing there on
Akanikolea.”
Kamapuaa said to his gods:
“Say, I believe I am recognized
by those people.” The gods
replied, trying to deceive him:
“No, they have not recognized
you.” Kamapuaa then again
chanted:
You do not know that I am Kama.

lakou.” Oli hou o Kamapuaa:
Aole oe i ike ia’u o Kama,
Perchance it is Kama of the
mountains that you know,
On the top of the mountain,
In the forest,
In the kindling wood,
At the trunk of the tree.
Perchance that is the Kama you
know. 50
Pele then replied: “I know you,
for you have just come from
Kahiki. You have fought
Lonokaeho and have killed him,
and Kowea became your father-
in-law. You have lived with his
daughter; you two have a child.
When my fire reached out and
pinched your eyes you left and
came here. That is the reason
you have come; to put my fire
out and to fight me.” Pele then
chanted:
Thou art indeed Kama
The man of the high cliffs,
Of the low lying cliffs,
Of the steep cliffs,
Of the cliffs of the rolling stones,
Where the kalokalo 51 birds roam,
Making it cold in the uplands of
Kaliuwaa,
For Hiwa is thine
And thou art Kama
O Kama paha i kuahiwi kau i ike,
I ke kualono,
Ka nahelehele,
I ka pulupulu ahi,
I ke kumu nei o ka laau,
Kau Kama paha ia i ike.
Pane mai o Pele: “Ua ike au ia
oe mai Kahiki oe i hele mai nei.
Kaua mai nei oe me Lonokaeho
a make ia oe. Lilo o Kowea he
makuahunowai nou. Moe oe me
ke kaikamahine ana a loaa ka
olua keiki. Kii aku nei kuu ahi a
ko maka ohiki. Nolaila oe i hele
mai nei e kinai i kuu ahi, a e
kaua me a’u.” Oli mai la o Pele:
O Kama hoi paha oe,
O kanaka o ka pali ku,
O ka pali moe
O ka pali ku-hoho
O ka pali kaa o ka pohaku,
I hehi ia e ka manu kalokalo,
Anu ai ka uka o Kaliuwaa,
Nou no o Hiwa,
O Kama hoi oe,
O ke keiki puaa a Hina ma,
The hog-son of Hina and her
husband,
The hog-grandson of
Kamaunuaniho.
Of your pen, Lelepa,
Of your belly, a passenger
belly, 52 [338]
Of the cord on your nose,
Haleaha. 53
Thou art Kamapuaa,
The buttocks that drop without
effort,
The nose that is pierced by a
cord,
The private that joins the belly,
The tail that wags behind.
Answer, Kama, to your name.
When Pele ended her chanting,
Kamapuaa began to chant back
a reply. It was by these chants
back and forth that the two were
led on to do battle.
Sore eyed, sore eyed number
one, 54
Who go to the lowlands at
Piheka.
What food does she eat?
That which has been left by the
ghosts,
The ghosts, the ghosts.
Ghosts, are the chiefs of Kona,
Moopuna puaa a
Kamaunuaniho,
O ko pa la, o Lelepa,
O ko opu la, o opu ohua, [339]
O ka aha o ko ihu, o Haleaha,
O Kamapuaa oe,
O ka lemu helelei wale,
O ka ihu i hou ia i ka aha,
O ka mai pili i ka opu,
O ka huelo kahili mahope,
E o—e—Kama i ko inoa.
A hooki o Pele i kana oli, oli mai

Makole, makole akahi,
Hele i kai o Piheka,

He lihilihi pau i ke ’kua.
He ’kua, he ’kua,
He ’kua na ’lii o Kona,
A Paieie i Mokuhia.
Hele aku o Panaewa,
Ikiiki e! Ikiiki e!
At Paieie, at Mokuhia,
Who goes as far as Panaewa.
It is warm, it is warm,
It is the warmth that wakes one
from sleep.
You must wake up, why sleep so
long?
For the sun is at Ouli.
The lowlands are black, are
black,
With the small fine rain of
Hopoe.
Strike her, let the woman fly
To the lowlands of Makuakeke.
Some of the gods are
displeased,
Some of the gods are deceiving.
The swine-eating god has its
nose corded.
Pele is the goddess that eats
swine.
Pele grunts and groans.
Say, Pele, keep on chiding!
Say, Pele, keep on chiding!
the battle begins.
With this chant of Kamapuaa
Pele became furious and she
ordered her sisters and brothers
to start the fire. Pele next
ordered her brothers that one of
them climb above Kamapuaa,
Ikiiki hoala hiamoe,
E ala ae oe e moe loa nei,
Aia ka la i Ouli,
Uliuli kai e uli,
Ka ua lele huna o Hopoe,
E kui e lele ka wahine
I kai o Makuakeke.
Hookeekee kahi akua,
Hoopunipuni kahi akua,
Kuahu ia ke ’kua ai puaa,
O Pele ke ’kua ai puaa,
Uhi—uha—mai ana o Pele,
E Pele e! kaukau li,
E Pele e! kaukau li.

Ma keia oli a Kamapuaa, Ua
huhu loa o Pele. Kena aku la ia i
na kaikaina a me na kaikunane e
hoa ke ahi. Olelo aku o Pele i na

the one called Hiiakaluna and
the other, Hiiakalalo, 55 to get
under Kamapuaa. When the two
were getting near Kamapuaa, in
obedience to the command of
Pele, Kamapuaa asked of his
gods: “Who are these, coming?”
“They are the brothers of Pele,
Hiiakaluna and Hiiakalalo. If they
ever come together we will be
killed.” Upon hearing this reply
from the gods, Kamapuaa sent
his love making god,
Lonoikiaweawealoha, to go and
make love with the brothers of
Pele. 56 When this god met the
brothers of Pele he cunningly
made love to them and they
immediately forgot the [340]orders
of Pele. The two proceeded to
the lowlands of Puna, in
Malamanui, and lived there.
When the brothers decided to do
this Pele was aware of their
action, so she ordered
Lonomakua to start the fire.
When Kamapuaa saw the fire
burning, he chanted these
words:
The fire by Lonomakua 57
Of the woman, Pele.
Hiiakaluna, a o kekahi malalo
ae, oia o Hiiakalalo. Ia laua i
hookokoke mai ai ia Kamapuaa,
e like me ka Pele olelo. Ninau ae
la o Kamapuaa i na akua ona:
“Owai keia mau mea?” “O na
kaikunane o Pele, o Hiiakaluna,
o Hiiakalalo. Ina e hui laua
mamake kakou.” Mahope o keia
lohe ana o Kamapuaa i na akua,
hoouna aku la ia i kona akua
hoalohaloha, o
Lonoikiaweawealoha, e hele aku
e hoalohaloha i na kaikunane o
Pele. A launa ia me na

e like me kona maalea, a pau
iho la ko laua manao i ka Pele
kauoha. Hele aku la laua a noho
[341]i kai o Puna, i Malamanui.
Ma keia mau hana a na
kaikunane, ua ike no o Pele.
Nolaila, olelo aku la o Pele ia
Lonomakua, e hoa ke ahi. A ike
o Kamapuaa i ke ahi a Pele e a
mai ana, oli aku la ia penei:
O ke ahi a Lonomakua la,
A ka wahine a Pele,
Ke a ala i uka o Puna,
It is burning in the uplands of
Puna,
By the white snow of Maunakea,
The smoke darkens the heaven,
Caused by the loud voiced
woman 58 at Pohakea. 59
It meets there in the heaven,
It is a goddess of many forms,
Of changeable forms.
The eyes are of Lono,
Like unto me the body.
Hawaii is coming for me,
The prophet with many tears.
The forehead of stones is falling,
The sound of the round stones is
heard. 60
The axe with the red binding is
striking, 61
The cry of the birds is heard,
The voice of many tears 62 of
Hilo.
Kilauea is consumed by fire,
The sand takes on heat,
It ignites and flies upward,
By the devastation of the
goddess.
Puna is darkened by the bitter
rain, 63
Stifling is the smoke from the pit,
The strong offensive smoke of
Pele.
My greetings, woman of the pit.
I ka hau aiai o Maunakea,
I ka uwahi po i ka lani,
A ka wahine leo nui i Pohakea,
Ke halawai la me ka lani,
He akua kino lau,
Kino pahaohao,
O Lono ka maka,
Owau la ke kino,
Ke kii mai nei Hawaii ia’u,
I ke kaula waimaka nui,
Hiolo ka lae o ka pohaku,
Io io ka leo o ka ala,
Kui ke koi aweaweula,
Uwe ka leo o ka manu,
Ka leo waimaka nui o Hilo e!
Pau Kilauea i ke ahi e!
Kunia aku la wela ke one,
Ho’a ke ahi lele i luna,
I ka ai inoino a ke ’kua wahine,
Po Puna i ka ua a ka awaawa,
Pakui i ka uwahi a ka lua,
Hauna i ka uahi a Pele la e,
Aloha ka wahine o ka lua.
Pele made reply: “Yes, that
would have been all right, had
you come in peace, then I would
have treated you peaceably; but
since you have come otherwise,
it is only by strength that you can
get Pele.” Pele then ordered
Lonomakua to keep up with the
fire; she also ordered the
Hiiakas, the Kahoaliis, her
uncles and all the gods to keep
the fire going. Molten rocks then
flew up to heaven; the heaven
was as though in flames; the sun
looked red and the sky was
cloudless. The heat from the fire
reached the breast of Kamapuaa
and his whole body was
encompassed by the fire of Pele;
but Kamapuaa was surrounded
by his gods, Kuliaikekaua and
others, so he was protected and
was not consumed by the fire of
Pele. The sun was, however,
darkened by the smoke of the
woman, and Kilauea was entirely
lost from view through the great
heat; and this heat extended to
the other islands of the group.
Therefore Pele thought that
Kamapuaa must be dead, so she
caused the fire to be put out, and
Olelo mai o Pele: “Ae he oiaio ia,
ina oe i hele mai nei me ka
maikai, alaila he maikai ko onei,
nolaila, ma ka ikaika e loaa ai o
Pele.” Kena ae la o Pele ia
Lonomakua i ke ahi, na Hiiaka,
na Kahoalii, na makuakane, na

Nolaila, aohe he wela o
