Kukailani

Kukailani

Kukailani was a Hawaiian chief a father of Queen Kaikilani 17th Alii Aimoku of Hawaii.

He married Ka'ohukiokalani. The marriage between Kukailani and Ka'ohukiokalani was a half-brother/half-sister union.

"There can be little doubt that Keawenui himself, as well as the public opinion of the chiefs and landholders of Hawaii, considered his occupancy of the dignity and position of Moi of Hawaii as an usurpation of the rights of his nephew, Kukailani, the son of Keliiokaloa; and this was probably the cause of the commotion and uprising of the great district chiefs in the early part of Keawenui's" [ Abraham Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race: Its Origin and Migrations, Rutland, VT: Charles E. Tuttle Company, 1969.]
