The record — long form
Ka Lae is the point — the southernmost that's the US, the 'first landing' that's the hypothesis. The '56 was the dig — the 14,000 artifacts that's the Bishop Museum, the '650' that's the settlement. The mooring holes are the fishing — the canoes that were the tied, the 'swept away' that's the prevented.
The Kalalea is the heiau — the fishing shrine that's the Ku'ula, the 'very sacred' that's the informant. The Marquesas are the origin — the 2,000 miles that's the voyage, the 'first inhabitants' that's the belief. Ka Lae is the beginning — the Polynesian that's the landing, the wind that's the constant.
The file keeps Ka Lae: the southernmost point, the '56 dig, the mooring holes, and the Kalalea heiau.
