Kalehenui Explained

Chief Kalehenui (Hawaiian for "Kalehe the Great") was an ancient Hawaiian nobleman (Aliʻi) of Tahitian ancestry, and he lived on Oahu.^{[1] [2]}

He was a son of wizard Maweke^[3] (chief of the highest known rank) and his wife Naiolaukea, and thus a brother of Chiefs Mulielealiʻi and Keaunui,^[4] who was the father of the very High Chiefess Nuakea of Molokai.^{[5] [6]}

It was Kalehenui who was a ruler of Koʻolau Range; dominion over Koʻolau was given to Kalehenui by Maweke.

Marriage

Chief Kalehenui had married a woman called Kahinao (or Kahinalo, Kahinalu).^{[7] [8]}

The only known child of Kalehenui and his spouse was Princess Hinakaimauliʻawa, who was named after goddess Hina.

The grandchild of Kalehenui was Princess Mualani.
