Nāwele

Hawaiian genealogies name Nāwele as an aliʻi nui, or supreme chief, of Oʻahu around 1290. He was a descendant of the voyager chief Māweke and the son of Kahokupohakano.

Chants relate that after his cousin Kahaʻi, son of the usurper Hoʻokamaliʻi, held Oʻahu, Nāwele reconquered the island and ruled it. His wife was the chiefess Kalanimoeikawaikai, and his son Lakona succeeded him as aliʻi nui.
