    The Consequences of Eating With Men Hawaiian Women and the Challenges of Cultural Transformation By Paulina Natalia Dudzinska A thesis submitted for the Cand. Philol. Degree in History of Religions Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages University of Oslo Spring 2007 2 Summary Before 1819 Hawaiian society was ruled by a system of ritual laws called kapu. One of these, the aikapu (sacred eating), required men and women to eat separately. Because eating was ritual, some food items, symbolically associated with male deities, were forbidden to women. It was believed that women had a “haumia” (traditionally translated as “defiling”) effect on the male manifestations of the divine and were, as a consequence, barred from direct worship of male gods and work tasks such as agriculture and cooking. In Western history writing, Hawaiian women always presented a certain paradox. Although submitted to aikapu ideology, that was considered devaluing by Western historians, women were nevertheless always present in public affairs. They engaged in the same activities as men, often together with men. They practised sports, went to war and assumed public leadership roles competing with men for power. Ruling queens and other powerful chiefesses appear frequently in Hawaiian history, chants and myths. The Hawaiians did not seem to expect different behaviour of men and women, except perhaps in ritual contexts. Rank transcended any potential asymmetry of genders and sometimes the highest-ranking women were considered above the kapu system, even the aikapu. In 1819, after 40 years of contact with the foreigners, powerful Hawaiian queens decided to abolish the kapu system, including the aikapu.

The ‘Āinahau ban- yan has inspired poets, generated controversy and influenced leg- islation. Hundreds of individuals have rallied to help preserve the ‘Āinahau banyan and its numerous descendants. It is fitting that Archibald Cleghorn (15 November 1835–1 Novem- ber 1910), brought the banyan to Hawai‘i, for the businessman con- tinued the legacy of the traders from whom the banyan derives it etymology. The word banyan comes from the Sanskrit “vaniyo” and originally applied to a particular tree of this species near which the traders had built a booth. The botanical name for the East Indian fig tree, ficus benghalensis, refers to the northeast Indian province of Ralph Kam holds an M.A. and a Ph.D. in American Sudies from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa and an M.A. in Public Relations from the University of Southern California.

    2. The Sinclairs Of Pigeon Bay, or ‘The Prehistory of the Robinsons of Ni’ihau’: An essay in historiography, or ‘tales their mother told them’ Of the haole (i.e. European) settler dynasties of Hawai’i there is none grander than that of the Robinsons of the island of Ni’ihau and of Makaweli estate on neighbouring Kauai, 24 kilometres away, across the Kaulakahu Channel. The family is pre-eminent in its long occupancy of its lands, in the lofty distance that it maintains from the outside community and in its inventive ennobling of its past. It has owned Ni’ihau since 1864 and, increasingly from the 1880s, when a new generation led by Aubrey Robinson assumed control of the family’s ranching and planting operations, it has stringently discouraged visitors. Elsewhere in Hawai’i there is generally accepted public access to beaches below the high water or vegetation line, but—to the chagrin of some citizens—that is not so on Ni’ihau. There, according to the Robinsons, claiming the traditional rights of konohiki, or chiefly agents, private ownership extends at least as far as the low-water mark.1 Not surprisingly, this intense isolation has attracted considerable curiosity and controversy, not least because the island contains the last community of native-speaking Hawai’ians, which numbered 190 in 1998.2 Philosophical and moral questions have arisen among commentators determined to find profound meanings in the way the Ni’ihauns’ lives are strictly regulated (the use of liquor and tobacco, for instance, are forbidden) and their extra- insular contacts are restricted.

  • Hawaiian Royalty and the Craft

    Hawaiian Royalty and the Craft

    Hawaiian Royalty and the Craft No history of Freemasonry in Hawaii would be complete without some reference to the "Craft and the Royal Connection." In the days of the Hawaiian Kingdom, a special relationship was enjoyed between Freemasonry and the Monarchy, including some men closely associated with the Monarchy. This favorable situation was due to several members of the Hawaiian Royalty being members of the Craft, and some Caucasian Freemasons who had settled in the islands and married into one of the Royal familes. PRINCE LODGE KAMEHAMEHA V, fifth ruler of the Hawaiian kingdom, was the first native Hawaiian to become a Freemason. On February 27, 1853, he was raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason in Hawaiian Lodge No. 21. PRINCE WILLIAM PITT LELEIOHOKU, younger brother of King David Kalakaua was a member of Hawaiian Lodge No. 21. The young Prince was appointed heir to the throne by David Kalakaua four days after Kalakaua became King. Prince Leleiohoku died at the early age of 23. As a result of his death, his older sister Lydia became the heir apparent to the throne. So when King David Kalakaua died, the reign of Lydia Lili'uokalani began. She was the last Monarch of the Hawaiian Kingdom; Lili'uokalani was deposed in January 1893. ALEXANDER LIHOLIHO, KAMEHAMEHA IV, fourth ruler of the Hawaiian Kingdom was raised to the Sublime Degree of Master Mason on February 8, 1857 in Lodge Le Progres de l'Oceanie No. 124, and served as Master of the Lodge in 1859, 1861, and 1862. He was the King of Hawaii from January 11, 1855 until his death on November 30, 1863.
