This is the area of the Island where Pele (goddess of the volcano) and Poli'ahu (snow goddess of Mauna Kea) would do battle. Pele would lay down a blanket of lava, Poli'ahu would lay down a blanket of snow. The two goddess would deter each others efforts by covering up their work. Of course Pele would always win in the end! |
