Kāhua O Kāneiolouma is a sacred cultural site containing remnants of an ancient Hawaiian village located at the corner of Poipu Road and Hoowili Road in Poipu. The 13 acre site contains archeological evidence of hale, fishponds, taro fields, irrigation systems, shines and a makahiki games arena.
The walled Heiau (temple) that once stood here was 130 feet by 90 feet; dedicated to Kane, a major god of Hawaii; Hulukoki, a bird god; and Ku-hai-moana and Ka-moho-alii, two shark gods. Three hala-lihilihi-ula trees situated on the outside of the naupaka hedge mark the heiau perimeter.
