LIFE
A. "brought up to the age of manhood among his mother's relatives on Oahu" (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2, p 87,206). "Kiha-a-Piilani was taken by the kahuna and raised ... until he was grown and taught to be a warrior and an orator" (Kamakau, Tales and Traditions of the People of Old, p 50).
B. Ruler of Maui after his brother-in-law Umi conquered his brother Lono-a-Piilani because Lono-a-Piilani treated Kihapiilani poorly (Fornander, An Account of the Polynesian Race, vol 2 p 98).
