	History of Hawaiian Holoku
		Hawaiian heritage is celebrated today with the wearing of the holokeq \o(u,-) by kama'aina women in several events honoring Hawaiian heritage, such as May Day events, Aloha Week activities, and in the Holokeq \o(u,-) Ball, begun in the early part of this century (Khan, 1994; personal communication).
		Maile stated that she “wears holokeq \o(u,-) as a sign of respect for the Hawaiian culture as it was in the past.” Holokeq \o(u,-) continue to be worn for weddings, graduations, Hawaiian civic affairs such as the Holokeq \o(u,-) Ball, and to dance the hula.
		Similarly, reverence for Hawaiian culture continues to be expressed visually by local women who wear the holokeq \o(u,-) to express their local ethnicity, a pan-ethnic Hawaiianness, rather than a genetic connection to Asian ethnic groups.

		Kinship and descent is one of the major concepts of cultural anthropology.
		Kinship and descent have a number of legal ramifications, which vary widely between legal and social structures.
		More importantly, kinship and descent enters the legal system by virtue of intestacy, the laws that at common law determine who inherits the estates of the dead in the absence of a will.

		For example, most kinship terminologies distinguish between sexes (this is the difference between a brother and a sister) and between generation (this is the difference between a child and a parent).
		But it is usually impossible to translate directly the kinship terms of a society that uses one system into the language of a society that uses a different system.
		This kinship terminology is common in societies based on conjugal (or nuclear) families, where nuclear families must be relatively mobile.

	Kinship and Kinship Terminologies
		Grouping lineal and collateral relatives under the same term is technically called "merging", and in kinship systems in general the relatives most frequently merged are a parent and sibling of the same sex, a sibling and parallel cousin, or a son or daughter and nephew and niece.
		In some kinship systems, this is not the case: it is, for example, fairly common for grandfather and grandson to be called by the same term.
		Many parts of life are impacted by kinship, and in most societies kinship relations influence things like who one can and can not marry, who one must show respect to, who one can joke with, and who one can count on in a crisis.

	Systematic Kinship Terminologies
		Lewis Henry Morgan, a 19th century pioneer in kinship studies, surmised that the Hawaiian system resulted from a situation of unrestricted sexual access or "primitive promiscuity" in which children called all members of their parental generation father and mother because paternity was impossible to acertain.
		Anthropologists now know that there is no history of such practices in any of the cultures using this terminology and that people in these societies make behavioural, if not linguistic, distinctions between their actual parents and other individuals they may call "father" or "mother".
		Hawaiian kinship semantics are now thought to be related to the presence and influence of ambilineal descent systems.

	Lineage and physiological characteristics
		In this view, the Hawaiian system, in which the same kin term is used for all relatives of common sex and generation, originated from the earliest stratum of human experience, that of group marriage.
		Schneider presumed that common presumption of kinship amongst American society is based on scientific research, hence from Schneider's viewpoint (Schneider,1964;393), America's reference to kinship ultimately refers to that of bio-genetic relations, hence the remaining of blood is culturally defined as being an objective fact of nature.
		This is similar to Nuer 'ghost marriage', in which the widow remains married to her dead husband and, after his death, can continue to perform her reproductive obligations to her lineage by bearing him children through having sexual intercourse with a stranger or by one of his brothers.

	Kinship
		Why do some kinship systems, within this larger and apparently homogeneous group of systems, make a difference between affinal and consanguineal, whereas others do not is an unsolved puzzle so far.
		The whole problem then consists in putting together all the documented systems, and finding a way to order these systems according to principles that are intrinsic to them.
		In doing so I will produce a model that can be used to locate individual kinship systems, or terminologies, in an encompassing structure (the typology itself), and lead to hypotheses concerning their geographical and historical distribution.
