Kahakuakane was the 10th Alii Aimoku of Kauai. He ruled as titular King or chief of Kauai. He was also known as Kahakuokane. He was born around 1480.
He was contemporary with the king Kakaa-laneo on Maui, with the king Kalonaiki on Oahu, and with king Kauholanuimahu of Hawaii
He was son of Kaumakamano and his wife Kapoinukai. Nothing remarkable has been remembered in the legends about Kahakuakane. Kahakuakane had two wives. With the first, named Manokaikoo, he had a son and successor called Kuwalupaukamoku. With the second wife, named Kaponaenae, he had two children called Kahekiliokane and Kuonamauaino. Kahekiliokane's granddaughter was sought for, and became the wife of Lono-a-Pii.
Though no legend or genealogy state explicitly who were the parents or ancestors of either of the two wives of Kahakuakane, yet, judging from their names, and guided by the prevalent custom in such cases among the Hawaiian chiefs, it is very probable that the first was a granddaughter of Manokalanipo, and thus a cousin to his husband, and that the second was a sister of Kahekili I of Maui, and daughter of Kakae and Kapohauola.
His son with Manokaikoo succeeded him.
