It was originally named Laeahi by the ancient Hawaiians. The name meant "brow of the tuna" and looking at the silhouette of the crater from Waikiki, you can see the resemblance. The current name came was given to the crater by British sailors in the 1800's. When they first saw the crater at a great distance, the calcite crystals in the lava rock appeared to glimmer in the sunlight. The sailors mistakenly thought there must be diamonds in the soil. Diamond Head is a crater that has been extinct for 150,000 years. The crater is 3,520 feet in diameter with a 760-foot summit. When the United States annexed Hawaii in 1898, harbor defense became a main responsibility. One of the major defense forts, Fort Ruger, occupied the Diamond Head Crater. A battery of canons was located within the crater providing complete concealment and protection from invading enemies. An observation deck was constructed at the summit in 1910 to provide target sighting and a four level underground complex was built within the walls of the crater as a command post. A 580-foot tunnel was dug through the crater wall to provide easier access to the Fort. The observation deck and underground complex is now abandoned with the advent of radar but evidence of the command post is still present along Diamond Head Trail. The trail is paved almost the entire way but can be steep in spots. There are two sets of stairs, one with 99 steps and the other, 76 steps. There is also a 225-foot unlit tunnel. The hike is classified as easy to moderate in exertion but is certainly worth the breathtaking, unparalleled view of the entire west side of the island, from Waikiki to Koki Head.

Such is the case with Hawaiian quilts. In the early 19th century, New England missionaries set out to Hawaii to spread the Christian word. In the process, they also taught the island natives the technique of quilting. The History of Hawaiian Quilts Hawaiian quilts have adapted over time and are now recognized by their subject matter. They typically reflect the stunning tropical flowers native to the islands or commemorate an event. Rather than using small, patchwork pieces, Hawaiian quilts are made with large pieces of brightly colored material, which are fastened onto a light-colored, solid background piece. The Hawaiian quilting tradition incorporates a fair amount of superstition and custom. For instance, it is considered impolite to sit on a Hawaiian quilt. The quilt is a reflection of the quilt maker and to sit on it implies disrespect. A quilt is always folded back or hung on a quilt rack before anyone sits upon or lies in a bed. There are many examples of Hawaiian quilts on the Internet. You can choose from a variety of block patterns or become inspired by the photos to create your own personal design. Traditionally, due to the warm climate, Hawaiian quilts are made of light and airy fabrics. If you live in a colder climate, consider creating a Hawaiian quilt as your summer covering.

Of all the animals represented on Hawaiian shirts, the fish is perhaps the most popular. Hawaiian fish shirts remind us of the beauty and grandeur of the ocean and the tropical paradise that is its jewel. Hawaiian fish shirts often feature species of fish found only in the waters off the Hawaiian islands. Such fish are the ultimate animal symbol of Hawaii and are what draw millions of tourists there each year. A chance to bask in the pristine waters of the islands and to snorkel with the unique fish that inhabit those waters is one of the primary draws of Hawaii. Hawaiian Fish Shirts Are Fun and Relaxed Hawaiian fish shirts are an excellent way to relive fond memories, even after the vacation has ended. Whenever you're feeling nostalgic for the warmth and beauty of the islands, simply put on your Hawaiian fish shirt and it's like being back in the islands all over again. You can feel like you're still swimming around those beautiful coral reefs, even in you live in Wisconsin. Many people would not care to make such distinctions, but as an amateur biologist and provider of accurate information, I feel it is my duty to point out that not all Hawaiian fish shirts actually depict fish. Dolphins and whales are not fish at all, but marine mammals. They are actually more closely related to human beings than they are to fish, but they are still wonderful and rare symbols of the island paradise. Conservation of Hawaii's native fish and marine mammal species is the responsibility of each and every one of us. Get all Menswear articles via v. 5.0154 © 2002 - 2006 InfoSearch Media, Inc .
