The record holds 2 claims, 1 legend, 1 named entity — filed as reported, not verified. The heaviest filing is classed documented legend. The archive documents the claim; it takes no position on the ghost.

The record — long form

Ka Ule o Nanahoa is the rock — the 'penis of Nanahoa' that's the name, the fertility that's the purpose. The legend is the wife — the Kawahuna who was the jealous, the 'turned to stone' that's the end. The 'night' is the ritual — the women who came with offerings, the 'return pregnant' that's the belief.

The '30s is the hiding — the reforestation that's the obscured, the 'seen for miles' that's the before. The companion is the stone — the female that's the nearby, the 'as long as' that's the erect. Ka Ule is the finest — the 'phallic stones' that's the all islands, the 'best example' that's the claim.

The file keeps Ka Ule o Nanahoa: the fertility rock, the Nanahoa legend, the '30s hiding, and the pregnancy ritual.

Ka Ule o Nanahoa is the archive's Molokai file — the fertility stone.

Why this file matters

Ka Ule o Nanahoa is the archive's Molokai file — the standing stone.

A rock keeps its wife — the file's suggestion being that the stone's hold is the legend: the Nanahoa who turned, the Kawahuna who's the companion, and the 'return pregnant' that's the ritual.
