Children of the Gods: THE PELE MYTH

HAWAIIANS believe that the volcano at Kilauea is inhabited by a family of fire gods presided over by the goddess Pele who governs the activities of lava flows. A kahuna brother Moho (Ka-moho-ali‘i), two sisters, Pele and Hi‘iaka (Hi‘iaka-i-ka-poli-o-Pele), and a hump-backed brother named Kamakaua (Ke-o-ahi-kamakaua) are said to compose the original Pele family, all further additions being purely mythical. Traditional lists of volcano deities compiled by Ellis, Kalakaua, and Westervelt name at least five brothers and eight sisters, the brothers associated with the phenomena of thunderstorms and volcanic activities, the sisters with cloud forms, as translated by Ellis, who also uses the old t sound which later informants replace with a k.

Пеле — огненная богиня, которая управляет вулканами на Гавайях. Пеле может принимать разнообразные обличия, такие как, например, малое дитя, прекрасная молодая девушка, старая морщинистая старуха, собака, пламя. Она обычно одевается в черное. На Гавайских островах Пеле почитают, как очень могущественное божество.
