SiteType: Heiau; approx. location Ialena Gulch, on land of Mohiakea. Heiau said to have had a tunnel artificially dug underneath the platform, containing burials. Since heiau have been used as places of burial in recent years, (Sites 90,293,329,371) it is probable that this chamber, if it existed, was not very old. Heiau in area used as artillary range--destroyed.
