[1] Tradition has gratefully remembered Kakaʻalaneo as the one who planted the breadfruit trees in Lāhainā, for which the place in later times became so famous for.
A marvelous legend is still told of one of Kakaʻalaneo's sons, named Kaululaʻau, who, for some of his wild pranks at his father's court in Lāhainā, was banished to Lānaʻi, which island was said to have been terribly haunted by Akua-ino, ghosts and goblins.
Kaululaʻau, however, by his prowess and skill, exorcised the spirits, brought about peace and order on the island, and was in consequence restored to the favour of his father.
One legend mentions six children of Kaululaʻau by the names of Kuihiki, Kuiwawau, Kuiwawau-e, Kukahaulani, Kumakaʻakaʻa, and Ulamealani.
With another wife, named Kaualua, Kakaʻalaneo had a son Kaihiwalua, who was the father of Luaia, who became the husband of the noted Chiefess Kūkaniloko.
