Kāne Milohaʻi should not be confused with Kāne.
In Hawaiian mythology, Hawaiian: Kāne-milo-hai|italic=no is the brother of Kāmohoaliʻi, Hawaiian: [[Pele (deity)|Pele]]|italic=no, Hawaiian: [[Kapo (mythology)|Kapo]]|italic=no, Hawaiian: [[Nāmaka]]|italic=no and Hawaiian: [[Hiʻiaka]]|italic=no (among others) by Hawaiian: [[Haumea (mythology)|Haumea]]|italic=no.
He is a figure most prominently in the story of Hawaiian: [[Pele (deity)|Pele]]|italic=no's journey along the island chain to Hawaiian: [[Hawaii (island)|Hawai{{okina, and may be seen as a terrestrial counterpart to his brother, the shark-god Kāmohoaliʻi.[1]
The word Hawaiian: kāne alone means "man", and Hawaiian: [[Kāne]]|italic=no is one of the four major Hawaiian deities along with Hawaiian: [[Kanaloa]]|italic=no, Hawaiian: [[Kū]]|italic=no, and Hawaiian: [[Lono]]|italic=no. As a result, Hawaiian: Kāne-milo-hai|italic=no is occasionally confused with the latter.[2]
