Kapaealakona

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kapae-a-Lakona ruled as the 6th Alii Aimoku of Oahu. He was the sovereign king or chief of the island of Oahu. During his reign Oahu was divided among the sons of Maweke, a legendary figure thought to have colonized the northern islands of Oahu, Kauai and Niihau.

Kapae was son of Lakona, grandson of Nawele all of the Nanaulu line of the blue blood northern Hawaiian kings. He followed his father as sovereign of Oahu. Not much is related in the ancient legends. His successor was Haka of Oahu. Either he was Kapae's son, grandson or great-grandson since it is probably agreed on that three generations elapsed between Kapae and Haka.
