Hale o Keawe was a mausoleum that housed the remains of deified high chiefs, located at Pu`uhonua O Hōnaunau, now a National Historical Park.
In April 1819, Queen Kaʻahumanu, the most powerful wife of King Kamehameha I, publicly acknowledged her embrace of Protestant Christianity and encouraged her subjects to be baptized. In 1829, Queen Ka'ahumanu ordered the removal of the remaining bones and the complete deconstruction of the temple.
The platform of the temple survived until high surf, including at least two tsunamis in 1868 and 1877, caused extensive damage. In 1967 the platform was restored, and the thatched hale, wooden palisade, and ki'i were rebuilt. The Hale o Keawe structure and carved wooden ki'i were replaced most recently in 2004.
Happy Fence Friday! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

AKO MISMO DOG TAG DAY CONCERT

Nathan Hale, the state hero of Connecticut, was captured and executed by the British for spying during the Revolutionary War. He was remarkably eloquent before being hung, famously saying "I only regret that I have but one life to give my country."
An idealized bronze statue commissioned from Bela Lyon Pratt in 1913 stands in front of Connecticut Hall, where he lived when he was a student at Yale.

The recently renovated Halic castle now features a dining room, converted from what was once an open courtyard with a fountain in the center.
I didn't bring my tripod, so I shot about 9 bracketed frames hand-held and fused them together using Photomatix.

The Forestry Commission have recently been carrying out some pretty extensive pine deforestation on Hale Purlieu to return the area to common land. This apparently is of great benefit to the local flora and fauna. However, since they have done it, the buzzards appear to have left the area which is a great shame.
37057 'Barbara Arbon' passes Great Hale Fen (between Hubberts Bridge and Heckington) on 29th September 2025, working the return leg of the 3Q86 07:43 Derby RTC to Derby RTC 'UTU2' infrastructure monitoring train. 37219 was on the rear of the formation.
The train is captured running alongside Great Hale Eau ('Eau' being the French word for 'water') which is part of the South Forty-Foot Drain, also known as the 'Black Sluice Navigation'. This is the main land-drainage channel for the Black Sluice Level in the Lincolnshire Fens. The Drain originates in the 1630s, when a pioneering scheme to prepare the fenland for agricultural use was heralded by the Earl of Lindsey.
Many thanks to Jim Dowsett for his kind assistance and company this day.
A replica of Hale o Keawe sits among palm trees and ki'i at the edge of the Pu'uhonua (Place of Refuge) in Pu'uhonua o HÅnaunau National Historical Park on the Big Island. In Hawaiian, Pu'uhonua means a place of refuge. Here for more than 700 years, ancient Hawaiians found sanctuary after violating the sacred laws of the kapu, which was then punishable by death. In the refuge they were protected until they could be forgiven their tresspass. Hale o Keawe is located at the northern end of the eastern wing of the Great Wall that marked the Pu'uhonua. In ancient times the Heiau (Temple) served as a royal mausoleum, housing the remains of deified high chiefs. The powerful mana (divine power) associated with these remains served to sanctify and validate the existence of the Pu'uhonua. Genealogies and traditional accounts indicate that Hale o Keawe was likely built either by or for Keawe-i-kekahi-ali'i-o-ka-moku around A.D. 1700. The earliest western accounts indicate that in the 1820's the structure was largely intact with thatched hale, wooden palisade, and multiple ki'i. This indicates that even after end of the kapu system and the general destruction of heiau throughout the islands, Hale o Keawe survived largely unscathed, and continued to function as a royal mausoleum.
In 1829 Queen Ka'ahumanu ordered the removal of the remaining bones and the complete deconstruction of the temple. The platform itself survived until high surf, including at least two tsunamis in 1868 and 1877, caused extensive damage. By 1902 the site was described as a heap of stones with no definite lines. Since that time the platform was restored (1902), the area developed as a National Historical Park (1978) and replica of the heiau built (current version 2004).
