Book Description
Excerpt from Memoirs of the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum of Polynesian Ethnology and Natural History, Vol. 1 The feathers (lzulzmzamz) were of every variety known to the Hawaiians, includ ing such foreign ones as ostrich and peacock; but the old ones were of the tropic-bird, 00 (both' yellow and black), frigate-bird, pneo, iiwi and the barnyard fowl. In later degenerate times dyed duck feathers were used. The method of the modern orist who fastens his short-stemmed owers to wires that they may have due prominence in his bouquet was practised by the isl ander of olden time, but as he had no wire he pressed into service the tough, slim midrib of the coconut leaf. Several of these, or of other stiff fibres, he bound together with the thread of olona, attach ing by the same thread the feathers to the separated ends of the main stem in a way shown more clearly in Fig. 12, p. 19. These feathered branches are tied together in small bundles and kept in quantity for use. How they were finally fastened to the kahili pole is shown in Fig. 13, p. 19.
