Description I asked the curator at Bailey House what this cannon was doing outside on the ground. She told me that they found it in Iao Valley and brought it here. Hawa'ians believe it was used in the legendary battle of Kepaniwai in 1790, in which King Kamehameha killed so many Maui warriors that their bodies dammed the river waters. (Kepaniwai translates as "the damming of the waters.")
