f heaven.

This same expression was sometimes used to mean an order of
chiefs, _alii. Apapa lani_ was also used to mean the highest
order of gods, _Ku, Kane, Kanaloa, Lono_. The kings also were
gods, for which reason this expression at times applied to
the alii of highest rank, those, for instance, who inherited
the rank of _niau-pi'o_ or of _wohi._]

[Footnote 354: _Lani_. Originally the heavens, came to mean
king, chief, _alii_.]

[Footnote 355: There is a difference of opinion as to the
meaning of _Kape'a ma_. After hearing diverse opinions the
author concludes that it refers to the rays of the sun that
precede its rising--a Greek idea.]

[Footnote 356: _Unulau_. A name for the trade-wind which, owing
to the conformation of the land, often sweeps down with great
force through the deep valleys that seam the mountains of
west Maui between Lahaina and Maalaea bay; such a wind squall
was called a _mumuku_.]

[Footnote 357: _Ukumehame_. The name of a deep valley on west
Maui in the region above described.]

[Footnote 358: _Papawai_. The principal cape on west Maui
between Lahaina and Maalaea bay.]

part of Hawaii; by some said to be the sun's wife, and the
object of his eager pursuit after coming out of his eastern
gate Ha'eha'e. The name was also applied to a pillar of stone
that was planted on the northern border of this cape.
Standing opposite to it, on the southern side, was the
monolith Makanoni. In summer the sun in its northern
excursion inclined, as the Hawaiians noted, to the side of
Kumukahi, while in the season of cool weather, called
Makalii, it swung in the opposite direction and passed over
to Makanoni. The people of Puna accordingly said, "The sun
has passed over to Makanoni," or "The sun has passed over to
Kumukahi," as the case might be. These two pillars are said
to be of such a form as to suggest the thought that they are
phallic emblems, and this conjecture is strengthened by
consideration of the tabus connected with them and of the
