Aloha kakou,
I've seen and read a bit about Hawaiian history, and no where have I
seen
any information on whether Hawaiians have ever consumed whales or seals.
The Bishop Museum has an impressive collection of antiquities, but I
have
not seen any artifacts analogous to the harpoons and such of the Pacific
Northwest and Alaska. Additionally, the Hawaiians portrayed so much in
petroglyphs, but no whales.
Anyone know about this?
