Note 13 — Chapter XXX · WHAT HIIAKA SAW FROM THE HEIGHT OF POHA-KEA
Reading edition
Hale Lehua, an evident allusion to the goddess, or mermaid, Moana-nui-ka-Lehua. She was a relative of Pele and had her habitation in the ocean caverns of Ie-ie-waena, the channel between Oahu and Kauai. Her story belongs to the time when the sun-hero Mawi was performing his wonderful exploits. (See account given on p. 104.) ↑
