Puka shell

ʻO nā pūpū puka he mau mea like me nā helu e kūlohelohe ana a hiki ke loaʻa ma kekahi mau kahakai ma Hawaiʻi a i ʻole i nā wahi ʻē aʻe, akā, ua ulu mai lākou a pau mai ka hope o kekahi mea ola i ke kai. ʻO kēlā me kēia he piko i ʻōlinolino ʻia o ka pūpū kōnui. ʻO "puka" ka huaʻōlelo Hawaiʻi no ka "puka" a he mea ia e kuhikuhi ana i ka puka kūlohelohe i waenakonu o kēia mau ʻāpana pūpū i ʻōlinolino a me ka puni. ʻO kēia mau helu kūlohelohe, ua hana ʻia i nā lei ʻāʻī.

He nui nā hoʻohālike haʻahaʻa kumukūʻai i kūʻai ʻia nei ma ke ʻano he lei ʻāʻī pūpū puka. ʻAʻole nā pūpū o nā lei ʻāʻī pūpū puka i kēia mau lā mai nā pūpū kōnui, akā, mai nā pūpū ʻē aʻe, a i ʻole mai ka palaki. Eia kekahi, ke kūʻai ʻia nei kekahi mau kaula helu i hana ʻia mai nā pūpū kōnui, akā, ʻaʻole i hana ʻia nā helu o kēia mau lei ma o nā kaʻina kūlohelohe. Ua hana ʻia lākou ma ka lima mai nā pūpū piha ma ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā ʻūhini e wāwahi ai i ka pūpū i ka ʻāpana pono, a laila e hoʻopili i nā hopena paʻakikī i ka hoʻomoe huli, i mea e hāʻawi ai i kēlā me kēia helu i nā ʻaoʻao palahalaha a i ʻole pālahalaha i ka hoʻohālike ʻana i ka hana kūlohelohe a ka pūpū i loaʻa i ke kai no nā manawa lōʻihi.

ʻO nā pūpū puka maoli a pau he mea maʻalahi loa ke hana ʻia i nā lei ʻāʻī, nā kupeʻe lima a me nā kupeʻe wāwae no ka mea ua kūlou lākou i kūlohelohe, i hiki ke kaula ʻia e like me nā helu. Ua lilo ka mea hana pūpū puka i mea kaulana ma Hawaiʻi i nā makahiki 1960, he mea nani a haʻahaʻa kumukūʻai hoʻi i hiki ke hana ʻia a kūʻai ʻia ma ke kahakai. I nā makahiki 1970, ua lilo kēia ʻano mea hana pūpū i mea nui loa e ʻimi ʻia ana, a piʻi aʻela nā kumukūʻai. Ua hoʻonui ʻia nō hoʻi ka mākaukau o ka hana ʻana a ua kaula ʻia nā lei pūpū puka i nā ʻano piha a like paha, ʻokoʻa mai nā ʻano kūʻauhau mua.

I kēia wā, ua haku ʻia he nui nā "moʻolelo" e pili ana i ka pūpū puka, a ua kōkua kēia mau moʻolelo i ke kūʻai ʻana.
