Na Mo'olelo 'O Hawai'i Nei.

Na Mo'olelo 'O Hawai'i Nei~

A mo‘olelo is a story, a legend, an article, a song, and a piece of literature. More than that, mo‘olelo is the history of Kānaka Maoli. Within each mo‘olelo~ stories of how ancestors lived, how they worked, how they leisured, how they fought, various history of the land, and how they loved are told.

Mo‘olelo provides the link between those of us living today and the ancestors who have come before us and because of all of this; a mo‘olelo is much more than just a story or a legend. Like many Hawaiian terms, mo‘olelo carries meanings that are sometimes unexplainable.

"I created this subreddit initially for personal reasons as I'm a student of Ōlelo Hawai'i and listening to/ reading/ gathering/ studying/ exploring more in depth mo'olelo." (The creator of this sub lives on in spirit.)

This subreddits intention is to assist all interested in learning more about Ōlelo Hawai'i & Mo'olelo. As well as honoring mo'olelo of those both near and far.

Watch: Late Māori king's daughter takes his place as monarch.

A new Queen was crowned as the eighth Māori monarch in Aotearoa / New Zealand as her father, Kiingi Tuheitia Pōtatau Te Wherowhero VII, was laid to rest.

Twenty-seven-year-old Ngā Wai hono i te pō was chosen as Kuini by a council of Aotearoa / New Zealand's Indigenous Māori chiefs during an elaborate ceremony in the country's North Island.

She is only the second Māori Queen, the first being her grandmother, Te Arikinui Dame Te Atairangikaahu.

Ngā Wai hono i te pō is the youngest child of King Tuheitia, who died last Friday at the age of 69.
