"There were two yellow snakes encircling his ears" (HChM, p. 156). |
Mounitos "was bitten by a snake while |
|
hunting at" Olunthos (CDCM, s.v. "Acamas") : its name */WOLUNTH-/ is cognate with the Norse name /VOLUND/ of the artificer adorning with human eyeballs. |
Hua was contemporary with (HM, p. 380) La>a-mai-kahiki, who was named after Rata who obtained "eyeballs" (Rarotona -- HM, p. 268). |
|
"Kuafu was a man who lived at the shore of the east sea. He was good at walking and running ... . ... When he ran ..., he was so thirsty that he died there." (HChM, p. 157) |
"A drought ensues" (HM, p. 382) as a result of Hua’s having sent his men to the seacoast (HM, p. 381). |

Hua died at ("H") Niua -- /niua/ ‘whirled dizzy’ (HD). |
Hua put to death (HM, p. 381) a seer whose sons were named (HM, p. 382) Ka>a-... -- /ka<a/ ‘dizzy’ (HD). |
Thus, it is implied that Hua died through the machinations of those two sons. |
