Haumea is a Hawaiian goddess associated with fertility and childbirth, described in the available sources as a matronal progenitor who is mother to several important deities. Some accounts identify her with the earth-goddess Papa and, in certain traditions, as wife of Wākea; modern astronomy has adopted her name for a trans-Neptunian dwarf planet because of thematic parallels between her many offspring and the object's collisional family.

Kupua

In Hawaiian mythology, Kupua are a group of supernatural entities considered gods or spirits with unknown powers and behaviors.
