Death

edit

Most sources seems to agree that he died at Piopio, Hilo of an illness and was suspected of being poisoned or prayed to death by Alapainui. But Fornander gives this date to be 1752, years before Kamehameha's legendary birth under Haley's Comet.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 03:57, 28 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
