Haumea (pronounced in the Hawaiian language) is the goddess of fertility and childbirth in Hawaiian mythology. She is the mother of Pele, Kāne Milohai, Kā-moho-alii, Nāmaka, Kapo, and Hiiaka, among many others. Except for Pele, who was born the normal way, her children were born from various parts of her body. From her head, for example, were born Laumiha, Kaha'ula, Kahakauakoko, and Kauakahi. She was a powerful being, and gave birth to many creatures, some after turning herself into a young woman to marry her children and grandchildren. She was finally killed by Kaulu. The Hawaiian goddess is not to be confused with a Māori god named Haumia or Haumia-tiketike, the god of wild plants and berries; he is the god of wild food, as opposed to (his brother) Rongo, the god of cultivated food. ==Offspring== Some names attributed to Haumea's offspring are:〔The Kumulipo: A Hawaiian Creation Chant〕 :children by Mulinaha: ::Laumiha ::Kaha'ula ::Ka-haka-uakoko :children by Kanaloa: ::Kaua-kahi (Kauakahi) :grandchildren: ::Kaua-huli-honua ::Haloa ::Waia ::Hinanalo ::Nanakahili ::Wailoa ::Ki'o (last born) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Haumea (mythology)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
