::''For a Hawaiian god, see Kuhimana (god).'' In Hawaiian mythology, Kuhimana was a High Chief who ruled as the 7th known Moʻi of Maui. He was the sovereign king or chief of the island of Maui and is mentioned in old chants as semi-mythical person. Not much is said about him in ancient legends. He was named after one god.〔''Hawaiian antiquities (Moolelo Hawaii)'' by David Malo〕 He was born c. 1393.〔(Family of Kuhimana )〕 == Family == Kuhimana was son of Chief Alau and thus a grandson of Mauiloa. He followed his father as king of Maui. He married his sister, Chiefess Kaumana I〔(The Stories of the Genealogies of Maui )〕 and fathered Kamaloohua and a daughter named Waohaʻakuna, through whom Maʻilikukahi of Oahu became connected with the Maui line of chiefs. She does not appear by that name on the Kakuhihewa's pedigree, though, according to ancient custom, it was very common for high chiefs to be known by several names. Kaumana is also known as Kaʻana.〔Kaʻana is the name given by Samuel Kamakau according to ''Pukui''.〕 When Kuhimana was slain at the Battle of Kaeleiki, his sister-bride was so distraught that she killed herself and fell over the corpse of her husband. His son Kamaloʻohua would succeed him as ''Moʻi'' of Maui. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kuhimana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
