Description
峾첹ǰ첹ʻ is the older sister of Pele who was born from the breast of Haumea. She is a god of the ocean. 峾첹ǰ첹ʻ was upset at Pele and that is why Pele journeyed to Hawaiʻi with her family. 峾첹ǰ첹ʻ followed her as she searched for a place to live . At each place that Pele digs into the earth with her digging stick, 峾첹ǰ첹ʻ extinguishes Pele’s fires. At Ჹ첹 is where the two of them met and a fight between ocean and fire ensued. 峾첹ǰ첹ʻ destroys Pele’s body and at the place that she perishes is called Kaʻiwiopele near Hāna. Soon after, Pele transcends her physical body to become a god and leaves Maui for Hawaiʻi. She finds her home at Mokuʻāweoweo where 峾첹ǰ첹ʻ cannot find her.
峾첹ǰ첹ʻ also and brought the kaunaʻoa vine to Mānā, and the pahapaha seaweed lei to Pilihale, Kauaʻi. The shrine there was called Kalanikeleikekai. At Kalanipuʻu, Nāwiliwili, Kauai, she planted the ʻawapapa and the rough-skinned banana. ʻAukelenuiaʻīkū is her husband.
