The tiki: a deity of Polynesian mythology

Polynesian legends tell of the Tiki, a half-man, half-god being responsible for the creation of the universe. Polynesians attributed supernatural powers to it, worshipped it, and feared it.

The tiki confers power, strength, and protection against danger. It has a talismanic value because it protects the inhabitants of the house that houses it.

This wooden Tiki statuette was hand -carved and hand -painted using traditional methods. It can be placed on a piece of furniture or hung on a wall using the wall hook included on the back. It will bring a touch of exoticism to your space while invoking the sacred protection of the Polynesian Tikis!

The legend of Pele, goddess of fire

A famous Hawaiian legend is that of Pele, the goddess of fire, volcanoes, dance, and creation. Pele is one of the main Hawaiian deities and is often associated with the Kilauea volcano on the island of Hawaii.

The legend tells the story of Pele and her many divine siblings, all of whom are elements of nature such as oceans, mountains, and winds. In this legend, Pele is forced to leave her celestial home after a conflict with her sister, the water goddess Namakaokahai. After a long journey across the Hawaiian Islands, Pele finds refuge in the crater of Kilauea Volcano, where she settles and lights a fire.

However, the rivalry between Pele and Namakaokahai never ends, and the latter often sends floods of water to extinguish Pele's fire. This triggers volcanic eruptions, creating new land while destroying existing ones. This struggle between the elements of fire and water is central to many Hawaiian legends and is still cited to explain the island's geological phenomena.

The legend of Pele is very important in Hawaiian culture, and she is often honored and respected through songs, dances, and rituals. Today, Kilauea Volcano is still active, and many Hawaiians continue to believe it is the home of Pele, the powerful goddess of fire.
