Pu'u-kohola Heiau. Pu'u-kohola Heiau National Historic Site, South Kohala District, Island of Hawai'i

• Island chief Kamehameha sought to extend his power across the Big Island of Hawai'i. A powerful oracle on the island of Kaua'i told Kamehameha that if he built a ritually perfect new heiau temple, all the islands would be his. As the heiau Pu'u-kohola was completed, arch-rival Keoua fatefully arrived at the shore below. Keoua was killed and the prophecy unfolded, leading to Kamehameha becoming the ruler of all Hawai'i. In Aloha, Mr. Lucky, Star tells Caddy the story of Kamehameha's conquest of Ohau and the battle of Nuuanu Pali.
