SiteType: Kaualauki Heiau, on the edge of the ridge on the mountain side of Heeia. Facing east is a front terrace 115 feet long and 10 feet high, with a 20 foot slope, is all that remains, as rest of old structure has been destroyed. Large 2-foot stones were used in facing the terrace. The heiau must have been of good size. *Apili Heiau, Iolekaa, Heeia. Thrum notes: " A platform heiau of medium size said to be still standing in fair condition." Neither Kalani nor Bell had ever heard of this heiau. It may possibly be the one listed as Kaualauki, Heeia. McAllister, p. 198, No. 24.
