Ahupuaʻa, Fishponds, & Loʻi

Ahupuaʻa, Fishponds, & Loʻi

Produced by Nalani Minton, Directed by Nā Maka o ka ʻĀina

The centuries-old Hawaiian system of land use allowed access to all resources in the ahupua’a, a land division that stretched from mountain to sea. Within the ahupua’a, highly specialized technologies such as fishponds and lo’i kalo (taro gardens) ensured an abundance of food.

Our Kanaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) ancestors achieved a rare balance between meeting their needs and enhancing the productivity of the land and sea. Their social system ensured survival from generation to generation.

In this series of three half-hour segments, historian and anthropologist Marion Kelly, whose research into Hawaiian culture has been her life’s work, takes us on a tour of six islands to see what our modern world can learn from ancient wisdom and from those who continue to practice traditional ways today. Featuring taro growers, fishermen, kumu hula (hula masters), and rock wall builders.

    hello
    Are you aware that your video cuts out before the end of the program? it cuts out mid sentence during Keoki Fukumitsu’s segment. Also in your description it states there are three half-hour segments but your video is just over 1 hour 11 minutes, not 1.5 hours, so there seems to be some content missing.

    This website is an awesome one. I especially love that it talks about where I live right now. Hawaii is a WONDERFUL place when people in these videos talk about it. It makes me want Covid to go away so I can do more stuff with my family since I haven’t lived here for long.

    it looks fun fishing, but keeping up with it to feed your family looks like hard work.

    I went on field trips to fishpond to learn more about native fishes in Hawai’i and how they survive. Also went on different trips for nature learning about plants and how to plant in Hawai’i. This website is very great to learn more on the videos being shared and can comment on them and see others opinions.
