Haumea

In Hawaiian genealogical cosmologies recorded in summary sources, Haumea functions as an ancestral mother figure whose agency produces other deities. She is described as mother of several named gods and goddesses — including Pele, Hiʻiaka, Nāmaka, Kapo, Kāmohoaliʻi, and Kāne Milohaʻi — and in some identifications she is equated with Papa (the earth goddess) and presented as wife of Wākea. One account in the surveyed summaries states that she was killed by the figure Kaulu. The supplied materials do not contain a fuller primary-language origin narrative or chant-based genealogy.

The provided sources do not record a consistent or detailed iconographic description of Haumea. Summaries emphasize her genealogical and functional roles (fertility, childbirth, mother of deities) rather than standardized anthropomorphic attributes; no specific visual markers or ritual regalia are given in the reviewed material.

From the material available, Haumea's principal attributed power is procreative or generative agency: she is the mother of multiple important Hawaiian deities, implying a role in birth, fertility, and the production of lineage. The sources note narrative involvement (one account indicates she was killed by Kaulu) but otherwise do not list further supernatural powers, methods, or functions in rites or magic within the supplied corpus.
