The collectioncontains five linear inches. HISTORY Hale Naua (''Temple of Science") was a secret order established in September 1886 with the object of reviving ancient "science" in "combination with the promotion and advancement of modern science." The society was licensed by the Privy Council in November 1886. Its formal constitution and by-laws were published in 1890. It addressed itself to a wide varietyof issues, both traditional and modern, in keeping with its charter. Its activities included involvement in the sending abroad of Hawaiian artifacts for display in expositions; the sponsoring of symposia on various topics for the advancement of science; and the documentation of genealogies forthe preservation of tradition. The inspiration forHale Naua was King Kalakaua, and the organization died with him; the last of its records are contemporaneous with his death in 1891. It is also worth mentioning here the- tradition that Hale Naua and the Board of Genealogy of Hawaiian Chiefs were somehow related: one as a subset or subordinate of the other. There is no historical basis forthis rumored relationship, although many members of the one were also members of the other. The Board was establishedby Act 7, Laws of 1880 and abolished in 1887. Hale Naua, a noted above, was a private society in existence from 1886 to 1891. Source: Records in the collection SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The actual Hale Naua records cover a very short period, 1886-1891, although the collection also contains a brief correspondence fromca. 1898 dealing with disposition of Hale Naua property, including its records. The types of materials in the collection includeconstitution and by-laws -- both in draft and printed -- minutes, notes, referencematerial, speeches, addresses, newspaper clippings, correspondence, financialrecords, ledgers, genealogies, membership lists, and scrapbooks containing photographs and drawings. 1 HALENAUA M-469 The records in the collection were for the most part created or collected by members of Hale Naua, including King Kalakaua himself. The materials are in both English and Hawaiian, and the bulk of them document society membership, organization, financesand ceremonial rituals. There are also minutes of meetings and incomplete or unexplained materials which hint at the members' interests in science. Hale Naua well played its ritualistic role, and its meetings were oftennoteworthy social events, but its actual contributions to the advancement of science were as fewas its efforts were unsophisticated, as evidenced by such things as its assertion that the world was over 40 16 quadrillion (i.e., 4xl0 ) years old, through its recipe for a cure for leprosy to its creation of genealogies forthe "northernand southern branches of the human race." Finally, there are Hale Naua artifacts in the Museum Collection. See also: Library Collection: Silva, Carol, translator. Hale Naua Society 1886-1891.
