''Ancient Hawaiian Culture is so extremely hard to find on the internet. we've looked for half an hour and didn't see anything. if you know anything or know any sites that know anything about it please post it here.''

Don't know where you looked, 207.159.62.173. It took me just one minute on Google to find this page: http://www.paulwaters.com/kapuhist.htm

That having been said, though..."Culture of Hawaii" is pretty broad and would probably need to be clarified with lots of sections. When you say, "Culture of Hawaii," are we talking about ancient Native Hawaiian culture? Or contemporary "what it means to be a kama'aina" culture, which includes all the different European and Asian influences in Hawaii? KeithH 08:18, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)

This article will definitely need several major sections. I think because of its vivid history throughout, a chronological approach might be a good idea and allows for the comparison of culture in Hawaii throughout the ages. Ancient Hawaii has an article to itself and can probably be omitted with a "see [Ancient Hawaii] for more information on Hawaii before Western contact" type addition. I know quite a bit about Hawaii and its culture, so I would be willing to work on this article, and anyone who has any suggestions is welcome to post them here or on my now-empty talk page ^^; Keakealani 21:14, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree that Culture in Hawaii is too broad a term. Any discussion of contemporary culture in Hawaii should be useful, as in, not a PR post for tourists. A realistic approach to what's going on here would be helpful and refreshing for anyone interested. It should include the city/country dynamic, for example, and the creation of ethnic identity. I think it might benefit a reader to know that plantation life is considered nostalgic here, something that would sound alien to a mainlander. An investigation into resident life would also be very useful: the very active nature of volunteer-ism, the will to protect the islands from overgrowth and overuse, and the worries about the environment and economy should not be excluded. there are strong art communities here, and any given weekend holds a local festival of various interest that can be far more interesting than more touristy sites.

I can think of several other hot button issues (completely unknown on the mainland for the most part) that should be addressed just as public information. Public education, homelessness, government corruption and sustainability all have their place in a Culture of Hawaii segment right along side surf competitions, environmental science and hula.

It's just an opinion, but forging ahead with a realist assessment of what's happening here politically and otherwise would make this project credible.

If any of this sounds unfamiliar, i suggest you visit www.hawaiireporter.com and check out the issues. and then visit www.honoluluadvertiser.com and see what is being printed. very interesting stuff! 10:06, 9 September 2007 (UTC)10:06, 9 September 2007 (UTC)teacher

The following comment was placed on the talk page for the first image in this article. I'm moving it here because it more relevant to this page. -- Ed (Edgar181) 14:11, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Seriously-if you are going to do a write up about HAWAIIAN CULTURE, do not put up a picture of a couple performing a SAMOAN dance!!!!!!

Cuisine
has expressed interest in writing about the cuisine of contemporary Native Hawaiians. I'm sure a paragraph or two could be added here from cuisine of Hawaii, summary style. Viriditas (talk) 01:43, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Of course, if Candleabracadabra really wants to take this to the next level, I believe there is a good deal of literature on the contemporary Hawaiian diet and the associated health impacts. I think this is covered already in other articles, but I could be wrong.  IIRC, the reason there are so many deleterious health effects is because most Native Hawaiians no longer eat a traditional diet and are Westernized. Viriditas (talk) 01:55, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
