    Pu’uhonua Warrior on Flickr.This ki’i (carved wooden image) is in display at the visitors center of Pu’uhonua o Honaunau, the Place of Refuge. If a Hawaiian broke the kapu (law) the only way to avoid the penalty of death was to evade the guards and reach the nearest pu’uhonua, which was a sanctuary. Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park on the island of Hawai’i, also known as the Place of Refuge, preserves one such sanctuary. Share and enjoy.

    Pu’uhonua Guardian on Flickr.This ki’i (carved wooden image) stands just outside Pu’uhonua, the Place of Refuge. If a Hawaiian broke the kapu (law) the only way to avoid the penalty of death was to evade the guards and reach the nearest pu’uhonua, which was a sanctuary. Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park on the island of Hawai’i, also known as the Place of Refuge, preserves one such sanctuary. I made this after sunset in the last light. Somehow the coming darkness gave a small touch of the fear that must have been in the heart of a kapu breaker seeking the pu’uhonua. Share and enjoy.
