ʻAhoʻeitu
SON OF THE GOD TANGALOA ʻEITUMĀTUPUʻA AND A MORTAL WOMAN
Ahoeitu; `Aho`eitu; 'Aho'eitu
In Tongan mythology, or oral history, Ahoeitu is a son of the god Eitumātupua and a mortal woman, Ilaheva Vaepopua. He became the first king of the Tui Tonga (Tonga king) dynasty in the early 10th century, dethroning the previous one with the same name but originating from the uanga (maggots) instead of divine; see Kohai, Koau, mo Momo.
