SiteType: Terrace facings ? Aliamanu burials. On N side of top of Puukapu, or Kapukahi, are a great many stones which appear to have been the facing of a terrace. This stone facing on the N is now greatly disturbed, but the remains are sufficient to indicate its former regularity. It has a number of square depressions side by side. One informant said that here the bones which had formed the fence of Kaualua (Site 85, A7-9) were buried. ALSO SEE A6-19.
