About This Calendar<br />
This <strong>Hawaii</strong>an lunar calendar features the 12 moku (districts) of the mokupuni o<br />
<strong>Maui</strong> (island of <strong>Maui</strong>). Each month features one moku, including the name and<br />
contact information of its Aha Moku (Moku <strong>Council</strong>) representative, who was<br />
selected by the residents of that district.<br />
The Aha Moku is the traditional system of natural resource management in the<br />
Hawai`i archipelago prior to <strong>Western</strong> contact. It is based on management at<br />
the moku level. The moku were delineated according to the natural contours<br />
of the land and ocean as well as the natural resource needs of the community<br />
members who resided within the area.<br />
On July 9, 2012, Gov. Neil Abercrombie signed into law Act 288, which<br />
formally recognized the Aha Moku system and created an Aha Moku Advisory<br />
Committee, placed in the Department of Land and Natural Resources. This<br />
act culminated the work of hundreds of traditional lawai‘a (fishermen) and<br />
mahi‘ai (farmers) who first gathered in August 2006 at the Ho‘o Hanohano I<br />
Nā Kūpuna Puwalu (Honor Our Ancestors Conference) and continued to meet<br />
in the ensuing years with educators, politicians, environmentalists and other<br />
interested parties in a series of puwalu sponsored by the <strong>Western</strong> <strong>Pacific</strong><br />
Regional <strong>Fishery</strong> Management <strong>Council</strong>, Office of <strong>Hawaii</strong>an Affairs, Association<br />
of <strong>Hawaii</strong>an Civic Clubs, <strong>Hawaii</strong> Tourism Authority, Kamehameha Schools<br />
and the <strong>Hawaii</strong> Coastal Zone Management Program. At these puwalu, it was<br />
agreed that the Aha Moku structure is an effective, community-based way<br />
to manage natural resources in Hawai‘i. In 2007, Gov. Linda Lingle signed into<br />
law Act 212, which created an Aha Kiole Advisory Committee to investigate<br />
the best practices of traditional resource management. In its 2009 report the<br />
<strong>Hawaii</strong> State Legislature, the Committee favored the Aha Moku system, built on<br />
the five pillars of cultural and community consultation, adaptive management,<br />
education, generational knowledge and a code of conduct.<br />
This 2012-2013 <strong>Hawaii</strong>an lunar calendar was produced by the <strong>Western</strong> <strong>Pacific</strong><br />
Regional <strong>Fishery</strong> Management <strong>Council</strong> in partnership with the Aha Moku O<br />
<strong>Maui</strong>. This non-profit organization based in Lahaina, <strong>Maui</strong>, includes an Aha<br />
Moku Advisory compromised of six working committees covering land, ocean,<br />
shoreline, water, burials and air.<br />
The <strong>Western</strong> <strong>Pacific</strong> Regional <strong>Fishery</strong> Management <strong>Council</strong> is a federal<br />
instrumentality created by Congress in 1976 to manage federal fisheries in the<br />
US <strong>Pacific</strong> Islands. The Aha Moku system aligns with the <strong>Council</strong>’s ecosystembased<br />
approach to managing fisheries and efforts to enhance community<br />
engagement in the decision-making process. The <strong>Council</strong> coordinator for this<br />
project was Sylvia Spalding, under the leadership of Executive Director Kitty<br />
Simonds and in consultation with <strong>Council</strong> contractor Kalei Nu‘uhiwa, who<br />
provided the <strong>Maui</strong> lunar month calculations and many of the photographs<br />
and written excerpts on the moku. The information on the moku were<br />
taken from the <strong>Hawaii</strong>an language newspapers (www.ulukau.org) and from<br />
Indigenous Management and Conservation of Marine Resources in the <strong>Hawaii</strong>an<br />
Islands: An Ahupua`a-Based Compendium of Historical Resources, prepared for the<br />
<strong>Western</strong> <strong>Pacific</strong> Regional <strong>Fishery</strong> Management <strong>Council</strong> by Impact Assessment,<br />
Inc. The tide charts are for Kahului. They were produced by Barry Smith<br />
(University of Guam, retired) from data provided by the Center for Operational<br />
Oceanographic Products and Services (http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov).<br />

Oliver Kinney, a gifted Native <strong>Hawaii</strong>an artist, captured<br />
the kaona (hidden meaning) of Ho‘ohanohano I<br />
Nā Kūpuna in a conference poster that depicted<br />
knowledge handed down through generations<br />
of lawai‘a. The central figure is Ku‘ula, the premier<br />
fishing deity worshipped by <strong>Hawaii</strong>an fishermen.<br />
As he thrusts upward from the deep sea towards<br />
the mokupuni, Ku‘ula brings forth the wana (sea<br />
urchin), representing the truth through its alelo<br />
(tongues). The setting is in pō (night), as all traditional<br />
endeavors were based on a lunar calendar, sunset to<br />
sunset. High in the sky is the moon Kū Kahi (a time<br />
favorable for fishing). In the left hand corner is Makali‘i<br />
(constellation Pleiades), which was used to determine<br />
the beginning of the year. As Ku‘ula rises, he swims<br />
through the aku (skipjack tuna), which represents kau<br />
(the hot season). The ‘ōpelu (mackerel), represents<br />
ho‘oilo (the wet season). The ‘opihi (limpet) represents<br />
pa‘a (adhering to the truth).<br />

Wailuku<br />
‘O I‘aiki ka makani malu a‘e o Wailuku.<br />
I‘aiki is the very calm wind of Wailuku.<br />
The moku (district) of Wailuku was also known as Nā Poko<br />
and Nā Wai ‘Ehā. Nā Poko and Nā Wai ‘Ehā both refer to<br />
four distinct areas noted for four noticeable large water<br />
and valley sources. The large water sources are Waihe‘e,<br />
Wai‘ehu, Wailuku and Waikapū.<br />
At one time lo‘i kalo (taro fields) stretched across the entire<br />
moku.<br />
<strong>Maui</strong> ali‘i nui (ruling chiefs) often chose to reside in the<br />
rich moku of Wailuku while other ali‘i from other islands<br />
sought to usurp these rich lands from the <strong>Maui</strong> chiefs.<br />

Hāmākua Poko<br />
‘O Hāmākuapoko kahi kaulana e ‘ō he‘e ai. Aia nō nā lua hūnā<br />
ma ke one he‘e i leila.<br />
Hāmākuapoko is a famous octopus spearing district. Hidden<br />
holes are located in the sliding sands there.<br />
Of the 12 moku of <strong>Maui</strong>, Hāmākuapoko does not reach the top<br />
of the mauka (inland or mountain) summit. Perhaps that is the<br />
reasoning for the term poko which means short.<br />
Hāmākuapoko’s sandy beaches were known for their rich<br />
fishing grounds and famous surf spots. Dip nets called ‘upena<br />
‘aki‘iki‘i were often seen hanging along house posts to dry.<br />

Kaupakalua in Hāmākualoa has a blustering rain. It is the reason that<br />
the roof of the house is doubled.<br />

Ko`olau<br />
Puhi uhā (Conger cinereus, mustache conger<br />
eel) were the prized fish of the ali‘i (chiefs) in<br />
the moku of Ko‘olau. They were prepared by<br />
drying and then broiling, Only the ali`i and<br />
their guests were allowed to eat them.<br />
Kihanuiapi‘ilani was the son of Pi‘ilani. He<br />
is credited with constructing the road that<br />
circumnavigates the entire island of <strong>Maui</strong>.<br />
The road begins and ends on the cliffs of the<br />
Ko‘olau district.<br />

Hāna<br />
“…[‘Ai‘ai] also placed a fish stone in the cliff of Kauiki whereon is the ko‘a<br />
known as Makakiloi‘a. And the people of Hāna give credit to this stone for the<br />
frequent appearance of the akule (bigeye scad), ‘ō‘io (bonefish), moi (<strong>Pacific</strong><br />
threadfin) and other fishes in the waters.” [Sites of <strong>Maui</strong> by Elspeth Sterling<br />
1998: 133]<br />
The first ko‘a i‘a (fishing ground, or station) where ‘Ai‘ai measured the depth<br />
of the sea is near Aleamai, his birth-place, and is called Kapukaulua, where<br />
he hooked and killed the eel Ko‘ona. It is a few miles from the shore to the<br />
southeast of the rocky islet called Alau. The second station that he established<br />
was a spot about a mile from Haneo‘o and Hamoa, which was for the kala<br />
(unicornfish), palani (surgeonfish), nanue (chub fish), puhi (eel) and ula (lobster).<br />
These varieties of fish are not caught by nets, or with the hook, but in baskets<br />
which are filled with bait and let down in the deep sea. The third station, which<br />
he named Ko‘a‘uli, was located out in the deep sea for the deepsea fishes, the<br />
depth ranging about 200 fathoms.<br />

On the moons that start with “‘Ole,”<br />
fishing activities should not be<br />
conducted because they will be<br />
unsuccessful.
Kīpahulu<br />
Long before the first Europeans arrived on <strong>Maui</strong>, Kipahulu was prized<br />
by the <strong>Hawaii</strong>an ali‘i (royalty) for its fertile ‘aina (land) and kai (ocean).<br />
Thousands of people once lived a sustainable lifestyle in this area<br />
farming, fishing, and surviving with the resources of the ahupua‘a<br />
(traditional Native <strong>Hawaii</strong>an land division).<br />
The first written description of Kīpahulu was made by La Pérouse in 1786<br />
while sailing along the southeast coast of <strong>Maui</strong> in search of a place to<br />
drop anchor: “We beheld water falling in cascades …. The inhabitants,<br />
which are so numerous that a space of 3–4 leagues [9 to 12 miles] may<br />
be taken for a single village.”<br />
“…a ‘o nā ‘opihi umi‘i lima o Kīpahulu ka lu‘ulu‘u i nā mea ‘ono like ‘ole o<br />
Hawai‘i nei.”<br />
“And the hand clamping `opihi of Kīpahulu is the supreme delicacy of all<br />
delicacies of Hawai‘i.” [Rev. Alice Kahokuoluna, Ka Nupepa Kuokoa, 1927]<br />

Kaupō Gap<br />
Kaupō<br />
The ensuing two passages are taken from a 17-part series of articles<br />
about Kaupō, <strong>Maui</strong>, written by Thomas Maunupau and published in the<br />
<strong>Hawaii</strong>an language newspaper Ka Nupepa Kuokoa from June 1, 1922,<br />
through March 15, 1923.<br />
We went out to see the fishing temple located at the spot where<br />
we viewed the petroglyphs. … We asked our informants if<br />
perhaps they knew who frequented the fishing temple, and they<br />
said it was Kenui who knew, because he is a fisherman. … After<br />
a conversation on the petroglyphs, Kenui was questioned about<br />
the fishing temple, and this is his explanation: The purpose of<br />
this fishing temple is to increase the supply of fish of all types,<br />
whatever is desired. … The temple we are speaking of, the akule is<br />
its fish.<br />
Alapa‘i Kapaeko, an acquaintance to the royal chielf Keli‘iahonui,<br />
younger brother of Keleimoku, chief of Lahaina, made this road<br />
to Nu‘u. Fishing was the chief’s pastime while he resided here, so<br />
he constructed a road connecting the landing place in Nu‘u to his<br />
house.<br />
‘O ka ‘alina kaulana ma Kaupō nei,‘ai loli. ‘O Kaupō ‘Ailoli.<br />
The infamous feature in Kaupō, Consuming Sea Cucumber.<br />
Kaupō ‘ai loli.<br />
Kaupō, land of the loli consumers.<br />
Kauakahiakua, a chief of Kaupō, <strong>Maui</strong>, is said to have been fond<br />
of loli and to have once built a large imu for roasting them. Since<br />
that time the people of Kaupō have had a reputation for being<br />
especially fond of sea cucumber. [‘Ōlelo No‘eau 1635, M.K. Pukui]<br />

Kahikinui<br />
‘Olelo Noeau (traditional proverb, wise saying):<br />
Pua ka wiliwili nanahu ka mano … When the wiliwili<br />
tree blooms, the sharks bite. It is said that the<br />
wiliwili blooms during the mating season (summer<br />
Hinaia‘ele‘ele season).<br />
Uliuli kai pali o Kahikinui, kokolo mai ka ‘ohu he ‘ino.<br />
The ocean cliffs of Kahikinui are dark; when the mist<br />
creeps it is the sign of a storm. [‘Ōlelo No‘eau 2866,<br />
M.K. Pukui]<br />
‘O Puhimake ke kilo. Ke ‘ike mai ka puhi; ‘a‘ole lawai‘a.<br />
Ke ‘ike maila ka palaha; he mālia. Malahilahi ka<br />
holoholo.<br />
Puhimake is the sign. When you see the blowhole<br />
[blowing]; no fishing. But when you see it’s flat; it is<br />
calm. The fishing is easy. [Uncle David Ka‘alakea 1995]<br />

The <strong>Western</strong> <strong>Pacific</strong> Regional <strong>Fishery</strong> Management<br />
<strong>Council</strong> has worked with communities in <strong>Hawaii</strong>,<br />
American Samoa, Guam and the Commonwealth of<br />
the Northern Mariana Islands since 2006 to produce<br />
traditional lunar calendars to promote ecosystembased<br />
fisheries management and support indigenous<br />
fishing and management practices. In <strong>Hawaii</strong>, the<br />
<strong>Council</strong> is a strong supporter of the traditional Aha<br />
Moku system of natural resource management.<br />
More information on the <strong>Council</strong> and the Aha Moku<br />
system can be found at www.wpcouncil.org and<br />
