Pakaʻalana heiau

Ancient Hawaiian temple

Pakaʻalana heiau was an ancient Hawaiian temple (heiau) complex, sanctuary and refuge (puʻuhonua) in Waipio Valley where the god Lono was worshiped. It was the religious center on the Island of Hawaii dating before the time of Liloa or his sons Hakau and ʻUmi-a-Līloa. It was also the site of Hale o Liloa that held a statue of the god in a corner of the structure and bones of ancient Native Hawaiians who were revered as gods. The complex is said to have had a six-foot carved stone statue of Liloa. The temple is located in the former district of Hamakua. Here, Kiha killed the leader of a bandit clan named Ika, along with his companions, as a sacrifice.
