Abstract

In ancient Hawaii the experts in special fields were called Kahunas. They were an essential part of native life and social structure, as the Hawaiians depended upon them for advice in matters important to their welfare.

The author presents several unusual case reports which demonstrate that sorcery is still practiced in Hawaii.
