5.0 out of 5 stars
Educational, fun and easy to read.,
By Larry Kwiatkowski (onipaa@onipaa.com) (Honolulu, Hawai`i) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Na Ki`i Pohaku: A Hawaiian Petroglyph Primer (Hardcover)
Na Ki`i Pohaku is the result of detailed research of the history and significance of Hawaiian petroglyphs dating from the time of the first arrival of the Polynesian people in Hawai`i. It explains the only "written" recording of Hawaiian history in a clear and concise format. Profusely illustrated with examples of Hawaiian petroglyphs from all the islands in the Hawaiian archipelago and dispels many misconceptions about the petroglyphs, and why and where they were etched in stone. Highly recommended.
