The card says; Hand carved in Hawaii AKUA Ancients Hawaiians created an image to represent a god (Akua) or ancestral guardian spirit. These images carved on wood were termed KI-I, generally called "AKUA KI-I". AKUA KI-Is played an important part in the lives of hawaiians because every other man and woman had their God and Goddess. The power of the AKUA invoked by prayer ( PULE ) brought good fortune to the Hawaiians. May this KI-I bring you good fortune. Distributed by TIKI O' HAWAII Box 1575 Honolulu, Hawaii |
