Summary[edit]

Description
English: Palapala Honua – Kalama and Kepohoni – 1839. The Hawaiian language version of a world map was engraved to aid students in learning geography of the world. The diagram on the right of the map shows the relative heights of major mountains, as then known around the world. This map represents a joint effort by Kalama and Kepohoni. Several students at the Lahainaluna Seminary school did the actual drawing and engraving of the maps. Two of the most prolific were Kalama and Kapeau.
