Puukini

Feature:Heiau
Comments:Heiau described by Thomas Thrum in his 1917 "Hawaiian Annual". Likely the same as Hale o Kane heiau based on the dimensions and location: "In addition to which [Lonoaea heiau] they started the same night upon another, named Puukini, a short distance further up the slope, but at completion of the front wall of 200 feet and partial construction of the eastern side wall, daylight came upon them and they had to quit."
