Kamakahonu, the-Eye-of-the-Turtle, is the first Capital of the Hawaiian Islands of the Pacific declared so by Kamehameha the Great in 1812. Kamehameha lived upon the lands at Kamakahonu that included the ahupua'a (land divisions from mountain to the sea) of Lanihau I & II.
Today, more than 10 sacred sites remain on these lands along with sacred burials (including a burial identified as 28398).
If you are a descendant of Kamehameha I, 'Umi-a-Liloa, their relatives or of other families who once lived on the lands of Lanihau I & II in Hawaii, please sign this petition.
We the undersigned are Kanaka Maoli descendants and relatives of former residents upon the lands at Lanihau I & II at Kamakahonu, Hawaii.
By signing this petition, we wish to be contacted for valuable input in discussions carried on among the State Historic Preservation Division, DLNR, current landholders and other Kanaka Maoli descendants on the care of sacred burials (including the burial identified as 28398), sacred sites including Heiau, ponds, artifacts and the WHOLE innate sacredness that IS the First Capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii.
