During his reign Oahu was divided among the sons of Maweke, a legendary figure thought to have colonized the northern islands of Oahu, Kauai and Niihau.
He was grandson of Elepuukahonua and great-grandson of Kumuhonua, the brother of Moikeha of Kauai, and first king of Oahu. He was five generations in descent from Maweke.
His wife was Kalanimoeikawaikai, a chiefess of unknown descent who is sometimes referred to as Kalanimoeikawaikaa to separate a later chiefess of the same name who was the Queen Consort of Kauai. He and Kalanimoekawaikai had a son named Lakona, who would later succeed him.
