"Heiau of Mamala or Haʻakoa, land of Haʻakoa and adjoining Waipunalei, Hilo. Located near the edge of the bluff overlooking Laupāhoehoe village. Laupāhoehoe New benchmark [presumably the same as "Barnard" trig.] is located just outside of southeast wall. This is a walled heiau that has served in modern times as a cattle and slaughtering pen...No native local history was obtainable. It was probably this heiau at which the chief Paiea was sacrificed by ʻUmi." Elev. about 550 ft. Cf. "Nalowale" in Waipunalei.
