Hina--The Goddess of Food Plants

Another form of Hina was that of goddess of food plants. This Hina was called Hina puku'i or Hina-gathering food.

Hina puku'i had a special calabash in which she kept food and food plants. She was lured away from her home by a chief and in the process spilled the contents of her calabash. These contents flew up to the heavens and became the moon and the stars.

It is no coincidence that Hina of the food plants should also be associated with the moon and stars. Hawaiians of old adhered to a strict lunar planting calendar for all their farming and fishing. There are taro farmers to this day who will plant only at night and then give the new plants a particular tilt referred to a Hina.
