Information was gathered from the University of Hawaii in the Food Science Department, in the archives of the Bernice P. Bishop :Museum in Honolulu, and through personal contact with Mary Kawena Pukui, 'renown historian and translator of _the Hawaiin language. Most of the plants came by way of Indonesia or Malaya, and were ;transported to the islands by canoe, proving a rare feat of navigation iand horticulture. Although taro, the main staple, is grown and eaten throughout Polynesia, the Hawaiians were the only group of people to produce from 'it the sticky and bland-flavored paste-called poi. 1be·end result was l ~ food of highly nutritious value and digestibility. The caste system in Hawaii produced some unusual results in iVaried statures. The ruling class had superior diets due to t~eir ' ;! status. The common people were farmers or fishermen, with a barter · system used in the exchange of foods between them. 1be non-use of metals demanded the use of wooden implements, and resulted in a method of cooking in an earth oven called an "imu". Plants Here used as medicinal herbs. There '"ere curatives and treatments for various illnesses kno-v.rn today. · There was also a system of taboos that influenced the dietary habits. The people of ancient Hawaii \vere well-formed, healthy, and physically attractive. It is hoped that a recording of the foods they ate would produce additional research into the dietary patterns of : ' :today's citizens, and how they have, or will affect, their health. Q ~~,S\ t. __ ~ C~) .. fj ("r·\ r-~ / i I IN:TRODUCTION position pf the foods that are on the market today, there has been an 'upturn in the interest in nutrition, particularly "natural" foods. 'Dietitians today·a:re interested in what foods are culturally acceptable to patients, in order to prescribe diets that.wlll most likely be adhered to. Nutritionists are interested in the physical results of 'substitutions in foods that.ordinarily have been eaten for generations lby a particular race of people. Primitive peoples have existed for centuries on·adequate diets, ·although they did not have the facilities for measuring the nutrient icontent of those foods. Often great harm is inflicted by modern change~ ·of these diets. Diets of long duration change when exposed to outside i :influences, not nec<.:ssarily to the advantage of the people consuming ' :them. The Hawaiians are subjects of food habits imposed upon them by 1 a number of variables! climate, availability of resources, religious :or superstitious beliefs, and customs, among others. Hm.raiians had no i "rritten language ¥Jit:h which to record their customs. The alphabet is 'composed of the fi-<.1e VO'i>Jels plus the consonants H, K, L, H, N, P, H, Persons \·Jh<) speak fluent Hawaiian are 1 2 : fast disappearing, as well as the racially pure full-blodded Polynesian, resulting in a loss of knowledge of the older culture and customs. Due to the economic and political changes in the Hawaiian ! Islands, and the infiltration of so many other races, diets and food i :habits have changed considerably since Captain Cook first set foot upon' i j : the island of Oahu. Islanders today suffer from an assortment of ills ! that are considered diet-related: diabetes, coronary diseases, gall- ,bladder diseases, dental problems, obesity. Studies are now being ;undertaken to obtain information on these diet changes. Much can be learned about a race of people from a study of their food habits, their physical status, their superstitions. The !author is interested in the ethnic aspects related to nutrition. If we are to investigate the problems of malnutrition, it would behoove us to: :determine what changes have been wrought and how they have affected these people. As dietitians, we can recommend certain prescribed diets, but we do not really know if there are any personal or cultural adversions to following the diet. A diet can only "work" if it is ; adhered to. Perhaps, too, we are overlooking a source of nutrients so nee- • essary during famines in our haste to impose so-called modern methods ,on people. What we may discount as a food may be a precious source of ienergy to a needy population.· We already have evidence that injury can ;be done when a basic food habit has been changed. We have only to read' . of the results of the lack of i1eeded lime produced when American i Indians '"ere changed· from grinding the maize for their bread in stone · cor~tainers to the newer method of pulverizing corn in steel containers 3 to obtain flour. There is a grov1ing interest in using insects as a source of protein, where not so long ago this'would have been consid­ ered epicurally revolting. There has been a general int~rest in re­ turning to older ways of growing food "plants and preparing them as food in the new "organic foods" craze. Statement of the Problem The purpose of this study, then, is: : 1. To report and discuss the foods consumed by Hawaiians prior to invasion by other races. · 2. To list, as fully as possible, the nutrient content of these foods •. 3. To present the food habits

  • Terms Relating to Slack Key Guitar and Hawaiian Music in General
    Page 1 Dancing Cat Records Hawaiian Slack Key Information Booklet, SECTION VII: GLOSSARY - TERMS RELATING TO SLACK KEY GUITAR AND HAWAIIAN MUSIC IN GENERAL A Four Forty (A 440): Means 440 cycles are the “A” pitch in music physics. The “A” note on piano is tuned to 440 cycles; thus “A 440.” Sometimes just called “Four Forty” (440). (Also see piano tuning). A Tuning: Tunings pitched in the key of A. They can be tuned up to the keys of B or Bb, or down to the keys of Ab, G, F#, or F. Also, it is a term occasionally used for when the G Major “Taro Patch” Tuning is tuned up to the key of A, which is accomplished by tuning the second (B), third (G), and fourth (D) strings up two half steps to C#, A, and E, respectively, from Standard Tuning, and leaving the first (E), fifth (A), and sixth (E) strings as is. Thus Standard Tuning E-A-D-G-B-E, from the lowest pitched string to the highest (also see SECTIONS III, IV, IVa, V, and VI in this book for more about tunings - it is labeled as Tuning #C-33), yields E-A-E-A-C#-E, a higher pitched open A Major chord, if that is the desired sound by the guitarist. This is the opposite way that the G Major Tuning is usually derived from the Standard Tuning, where the first (E), fifth (A), and sixth (E) strings are tuned down two half steps to D, G, and D, respectively, yielding D-G-D-G-B-D, from the lowest pitched string to the highest.

Also known as Jawaiian or island music, this genre involves the ever-shifting identity and cultural categories of localness and Hawaiianness. Localness in Hawaiian reggae involves rootedness in and affective connection to place, multicultural inclusion and equalization, and opposition to an “outside” or the global.

Guam Museum Permanent Exhibition Overview History of the Guam Museum The Guam Museum, officially called the Senator Antonio M. Palomo Guam and CHamoru Educational Facility, is the first structure built for the sole purpose of housing and displaying Guam’s precious historic treasures. The Guam Museum reflects the diversity, creativity, and resilience of the people of Guam and the Mariana Islands. The permanent exhibition is the story of the CHamoru people, told from a CHamoru perspective. It is hoped to encourage people to engage in dialogue, to share perspectives and experiences and debate issues that concern us all today. I Hale’ta: Mona yan Tatte: 90 Years in the Making The earliest printed record of people making plans for a new museum dates back to 1926. The Guam Teachers Association, led by Ramon M. Sablan, a teacher best known as the author of the “Guam Hymn,” asked residents and friends of Guam to start collecting their antiques and other artifacts for a museum that would protect their history and CHamoru culture. The editor of the Guam Recorder, one of the earliest publications printed and circulated on Guam, also called for the opening of a museum.

BOX 3835 HONOLULU HAWAII, U.S.A Copyright 1939 By Henry P. Judd PREFACE In 1854 Lorrin Andrews published his Hawaiian Grammar, a standard work for many years, and even today interesting to all students of the Hawaiian language. It is now out of print, however, and hence difficult to secure. In 1891 Prof. William D. Alexander published his “Short Synopsis of the Hawaiian Grammar,” an excellent work for all students of the language, but not sufficiently complete as a series of lessons for class-work. In 1930 Mrs. Mary Atcherly wrote “First Book in Hawaiian,” which was authorized by the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii and handled by the Hawaiian Board Book Booms. In view of the increasing interest in the language of the Hawaiian, people, amounting to a renascence in Hawaiiana, it has been felt that a new work in the Hawaiian language, based on modern systems of instruction such as are used in teaching French, Spanish, Italian or German should be prepared for use in class-rooms throughout the islands and also for individual study. I am grateful to a group of persons interested in the promotion of this book, whose encouragement has meant much to the editor.
