In Hawaiian mythology, ʻAikanaka (or ʻAi Kanaka, ʻAikane) is a mortal chief.
His name means "man eater". His father was named Hulumanailani, whilst his mother was named Hinamaikalani.[1]
ʻAikanaka married Hinahanaiakamalama (according to the Ulu genealogy). She gave birth to sons named Hemā and Puna.[2][3] ʻAikanaka is also depicted to have married the moon goddess lona, who carried ʻAikanaka on her wings.[4]
According to the Ulu genealogy, ʻAikanaka was born about 746 AD.
