Kapiko-a-Haka, Prince of Oʻahu or High Chief, was son of Haka, the 7th Alii Aimoku of Oahu.

He was the son of Haka, the 7th Alii Aimoku of Oahu, and his wife High Chiefess Kapunawahine, whose rank and genealogy has not been remember in the old legends. He was the only son of Haka. Yet after his father was overthrown by the chiefs and commoners of Oahu, his hereditary right to succeed was taken away from him. The people probably did not want another of Haka's blood to sit on the throne. This choice by the people of Oahu ended the reign of the Kumuhonua Dynasty and brought the Mailikukahi, of the Moikeha line, into power. Not much significant of Kapiko's life is remember in the old legends. He married the High Chiefess Ulakiokalani and begotted three daughters: Kauala, Kamili and Kaoui.[1] Kamili would married Ilihiwalani, son of Kalanikuma; and Kauala's descendants would married the Kanekapuakakuhihewa.
