SiteType: Koa, in Kahue complex. On the E ledge of the beach S of Kahue, a low platform, 4.5 x 10 feet, by 2 feet high, resembling a modern native grave. Edges are lava blocks and smaller rock; interior filled with pieces of coral and some larger lumps; small pile of stones and coral against the W side. Apparently small sacrifices of sea food were made on the coral area and then covered with stone. Cockleburrs, (kikania), beneath platform, supposed to be recently introduced.
