H. Hewahewa

[edit]

Records from the 1848 Great Mahele indicated that a man named Hewahewa, who took the Christian name Hapakuka or Habakuke (Hawaiianized version of Habakkuk), died on October 20, 1848. He was the husband to a Kawelu [Nawelu], brother of a Keaka and the son of an unnamed father and Pihekei.[1] There may have been a different H. Hewahewa.[2][3]

Prophecy

[edit]

The article states;

"According to some sources, Hewahewa had predicted the arrival of a new god from the sea in the days before the first missionaries arrived in the islands".[13][14]

It seems this confuses Hewahewa's part in this tradition in simply knowing of the earlier prophecy of Kalaikuahulu.--Mark Miller (talk) 01:02, 6 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
