Summary:
"In ʻOhuʻohu nā Mauna o ʻEʻeka: place names of Maui Komohana, Kumu Hula Cody Kapueolaʻākeanui Pata gathers together more than 1,600 inoa ʻāina (place name) entries for Maui Komohana--an area of less than 200 square miles that has come to be known as West Maui. For Kānaka Maoli (Native Hawaiians), inoa ʻāina have since antiquity served to encode and relay meaningful information across space and time, from one generation to the next. Inoa ʻāina continue to be revered as inseparable from genealogies, individual and collective narratives, mele (poetic verse), and pule (prayers); they persist into modern times as cherished and sacred legacies deserving of deference and appreciation. The content for ʻOhuʻohu nā Mauna o ʻEʻeka was compiled from dozens of maps, nineteenth- and twentieth-century Hawaiian and English language newspapers, online databases, numerous print publications, archival records, moʻolelo and mele, recordings of Kanaka Maoli speakers, and information shared directly with the author by his elders, masters, and mentors. Whether one is a genealogical descendant of Maui Komohana, a practitioner of ʻoihana Hawaiʻi (Hawaiian professions), or any other manner of scholar, this book is meant to be a resource for all researchers who wish to delve deeper into the toponymy of Maui Komohana."-- Publisher.
