A Brief History Of Kauai
In contrast to other North American states and islands, Kauai history is truly unique, rich and worth remembering. The inception and rise of the oldest island in Hawaii involve a lot of folklore, tradition and culture.
About 1600 years ago between 400 to 500 A.D., Kauai had its first settlers who introduced staple food products like taro which is used to make poi. Moving forward to 1000 A.D. and the Marquesans had sailed from Polynesia and had become the first real inhabitants of the island. Tahitians then arrived and overpowered the Marquesans to inhabit the island of Kauai as well. The impact of the Polynesians on this island can still be seen today as many plants bought by these early settlers still grow in the region today.
Westerners arrived at the scene only during the 1700s. Captain James Cook is the most famous of all western explorers who navigated Hawaiian waters and islands. The HMS Discovery and Resolution initally made land in Waimea Bay in 1778 resulting in local trading and cultural education from their Hawaiian hosts. Captain Cook named the islands Sandwich Islands after the captain’s superior officer, the Fourth Earl of Sandwich.
Moving forward into the 1800′s, King Kamehameha took Kauai without violence from King Kaumuali”i in 1810. He reigned over the majority of the island chain. Five years later in 1815, Georg Scheffer, a Russian doctor visited Kauai to hopefully establish trade privileges with King Kamehameha. Kauai however, was still nominally under the control of King Kaumuali”i so the Russian doctor promised Kaumuali”i to liberate Kauai with the aid of Emperor Nicholas I of Russia in return for cargo situated in Waimea. Fort Elizabeth was then built on the western aspect of the island plus a few more near Hanalei. Unfortunately, Scheffer was called back to his home country causing the fall of Fort Elizabeth to King Kamehameha.
The Kilauea Lighthouse was created in 1913 at the northernmost point of the major Hawaiian islands which featured the largest glass lens of its kind guiding sailors from the Orient. It continued to function until 1970 and is now considered as a historical landmark. Hawaiian history continued to flourish throughout the years and was well-preserved even after American colonization during the 1900s.
