A conversation about the repatriation and reburial of iwi kūpuna with Halealoha Ayau and Mana Caceres of Hui Iwi Kuamo‘o.
Hui Iwi Kuamoʻo has worked for 32 years to provide care for iwi kūpuna (ancestral Hawaiian bones), moepū (funerary possessions) and mea kapu (sacred objects) through repatriation and reburial, formerly as the Hui Mālama i Nā Kūpuna ʻO Hawai’i Nei. They have travelled overseas to conduct national and international repatriations from museums, government agencies, and private individuals to identify the iwi, advocate for their return, and physically escort them back to Hawaiʻi.
