Kahiko-Lua-Mea (better known simply as Kahiko) is a god in Hawaiian mythology, who was once a chief on the Earth and lived in Olalowaia. He is mentioned in the chant Kumulipo and in the Chant of Kūaliʻi.
Kahiko is also mentioned in The Legend of Waia. The legend is that there was a head figure that had the ability to speak. He gave power to Kahiko because Waia lacked to keep up with his responsibilities as a chief.
He was born c. 144 in the Ololo Genealogy.
