Maui The Island of

Maui and Kahoolawe, Hawaii Maui and Kahoolawe, Hawaii Elevation: 1,476 feet (450 m) - Kahoolawe 10,023 feet (3,055 m) - Maui The Island of Maui is made of two volcanoes: West Maui and East Maui.Most of the West Maui shield (20.9N, 156.6W) formed between 2-1.3 millionyears ago. A central caldera has been identified roughly in the area ofthe present-day Iao Valley. Alkalic basalts capped the volcano about 1.2million years ago. Four small eruptions occurred during the rejuvenatedstage on West Maui, probably about 1 million years ago. The volcano isdeeply dissected by numerous valleys. West Maui has not erupted inhistoric time and is considered to be extinct . East Maui Volcano, often also (but incorrectly) called Haleakala, is the easternmost of the twoshield volcanoes that make the Island of Maui. East Maui Volcano (20.7N, 156.2W)is the third largest Hawaiian shield volcano. Three rift zones can beclearly seen in the above Space Shuttle photograph(compare with map below). Most of thevolcanic activity has been concentrated along the southwest and east riftzones. The impressive Haleakala Crater is at the summit of the volcano.Haleakala Crater is an erosional caldera, formed by the coalescence ofthe heads of two large valleys as they eroded into the volcano. The mainshield of Haleakala is more than 800,000 years old. Lava flows andpyroclastics of the capping stage range in age from 930,000 to 350,000years old. Rejuvenated-stage volcanic rocks occur along the rift zonesand in the crater. The most recent eruption of Haleakala was in about1790 at La Perouse Bay. Haleakala is considered an active volcanobecause this eruption is in historic time for Hawaii. Kahoolawe (20.5N, 156.6W) is one of the smallest shield volcanoes in theHawaiian Islands. Kahoolawe is the island near the bottom of the slide.The lava flows that make the main shield are 1-2 million years old. Waveerosion has exposed a caldera on the eastside of the island . Kahoolawehas not erupted in historic time and is considered to be extinct. Source of information: Volcanoes of North America by Wood and Kienle. Images of Volcanoes To VolcanoWorld

Hawaiian Gift

Hawaiian Gift- Giving Hawaiian Gift-giving Pronunciation Guide `Ôlelo Hawai`i (Hawaiian): `Ôlelo Haole (English): He makana nâu. Na`u anei kêia? Nâu wale nô. A gift for you. Is this for me? Just for you. `Ôlelo No`eau ~ Wise Sayings "I hele i kauhale, pa`a pû`olo i ka lima." "In going to the houses of others, carry a package in hand." To go empty-handed is an affront and embarrassment to both host and visitor. "He wahî pa`akai." "Just a packet of salt." Gifts that are grown or made by the giver are the best, as it is imbued with the giver's spirit, creating a "mystic bond". "E `ôpû ali`i." "Have a stomach like a chief." Fig., Be kind and generous as a chief. "`A`ohe lokomaika`i i nele i ke pâna`i." "No kind heart lacks a reward." The Hawaiian version of the Golden Rule. If one is treated well, generously, and hospitably, the courtesy to the same extent is to be returned. Different Kinds of Gifts `âlana Offering, especially a free-will offering. `âlana aloha Peace offering, offering of love. `âlana kuni Burnt offering, offering to procure death by sorcery. ha`awina Grant, contribution, honorarium, donation. ho`ina A farewell gift, especially as a parting gift after a feast. ho`okupu A ceremonial gift given as a sign of honor or respect, often to a chief or deity; church offering. louulu A betrothal gift sent from one family to another. makana Gift, present; reward, award, prize. Makana ka ho`i (What a gift!), sometimes said sarcastically, by an ungrateful person. makana aloha Gift of friendship or love; freewill offering. makana hele Parting gift. Lit., going gift. `oloa A gift to a newborn child. pâlala / palaloa A gift or tax given to a chief at the birth of a child; to honor a child with a gift; house-warming feast. pani Final gift in a ho`okupu (gift-giving as a sign of honor and respect) ceremony. wainohia A gift of affection. Nâ Makana Makamae ~ Treasured Gifts hulu Feather, quill, plumage. Objects made of feathers were the most valuable, aesthetically and materially, and were exchanged among ali`i (royalty) and as gifts to warriors with prowess. niho palaoa Carved whale tooth. Rare, highly prized, worn by high chiefs. Take a look at Uncle Charlie's lei palaoa. kâhili Royal feather standards. Other gifts include canoes, adzes, bowls, pieces of kapa , and fishhooks. Valued intrinsic gifts include feelings of kôkua (helpfulness), lokomaika`i (kindliness), and aloha . Gift-giving with Aloha hâ`awi lokomaika`i To give freely, openhanded. hâ`awi wale To give freely, gratis. ho`onu`a Give lavishly, generously, continuously. kahiau To give generously or lavishly with the heart and without expectation of return. kihikau To give lavishly. manuahi Gratis, free of charge. pâna`i Reciprocate, whether good or bad; to pay back, reward, or revenge. Repay each gift with something at least equivalent to what is received; giving more is better. pu`upâ To give and receive freely. hâ`awi manawale`a / manawale`a Give gladly. Pseudo-Gift-giving / Poor Etiquette "Genuine (gift-giving) can only take place when no exchange of money is involved, or more precisely, when something is given without any thought of getting something back except the pleasure of giving and purest aloha." ~ George Hu`eu Kanahele hâ`awi papa he`e nalu Give for the sake of receiving a gift; trade, buy and sell. helu Counting. Refers to the graceless, offensive behavior of recalling past favors to get something back. The person so offended often returned the gift. kû`ai Trade. To return a gift immediately savored of trade, and cheapened the gift. When one had been given a gift in a bowl or dish, the container was kept for a few days before returned, filled with something. ku`aku`ai Give for the sake of receiving a gift; trade, buy and sell. maua Failure to return a gift. Mahalo Mahalo "Thank you", gratitude, appreciation. There is no precise equivalent of thank you in Hawaiian. As with Native Americans and other Polynesians, saying thank you upon receiving a gift was considered unnecessary and offensive. The unspoken grace and humility in receiving the gift "spoke" volumes. To give proper thanks for a gift, give a gift back, preferably of greater value. Each new exchange lends value, prestige and mana to all concerned, creating a positive spiraling effect generated by generosity and hospitality. Mahalo nui loa. Mahalo â nui. Thank you (not an exact translation) very much. `O wau nô me ka mahalo. I am, (yours) in gratitude. >> Hawaiian Greetings & Sentiments Sources: Pukui, Mary Kawena & Elbert, Samuel H., Hawaiian Dictionary , Revised & Enlarged Edition, University Of Hawai`i Press, Honolulu, 1986.
