Kent Tsukamoto The Pu‘ukoholā Heiau on Hawai‘i Island is a sacred site in the Hawaiian
culture. Its presence is grand, not only because of its size, but also in the
Muriel Anderson role it played in the unification of the Hawaiian Kingdom.
Jodi Endo Chai
James E. Duffy Jr.
Matthew Emerson The heiau was constructed between 1790 and 1791 on the Kohala Coast.
AJ Halagao It was at a time when Kamehameha the Great was at a crossroads in

Ashley Takitani Leahey the 1991 ceremony that marked the 200th anniversary of the consecration of
Kevin Matsunaga the Pu‘ukoholā Heiau. According to filmmaker Meleanna Aluli Meyer, “This
Theresia McMurdo was done as a recommitment to the place, to the culture and to the traditions
Bettina Mehnert
and protocols. To not only enliven our practices, but to give us really, the

L. Candy Suiso clans who were historically torn. “We have been able to create and to
Kūha‘o Zane
envision and to work toward a message of healing, of reconciling and
coming together …” says Meyer.
