The words to this `olelo no`eau or ancient Hawaiian proverb translates to
say,  profou
nd is the nature of `Aina`ike.”  It references a person who is
respected for the depth of his or her knowledge.  There is a play on the
words, `
eli`eli (profound and deep) and `Aina`ike (“Land of knowledge”).  

Another cultural perspective is to understand that the intellect of the
Hawaiian people is deeply rooted in the antiquity of the land itself.  

`Aina`ike is also a
wahi pana - a special and storied place that is located in
the district of Kona here on Kaua`i.  Today, Kaua`i's Kona district is more
commonly referred to as Waimea.

It is the basis of this `olelo no`eau that continues to motivate our vision and
and purpose of perpetuating the essence of Hawaiian culture.  

The Ka`ie`ie Foundation is a native Hawaiian non-profit organization whose
purpose is to perpetuate customary practices and art forms of Hawai`i
through cultural education opportunities.  It directly provides support for
Hawaiian programs, study and research initiatives of the Kaua`i Heritage
Center and Halau Palaihiwa Kaipuwai.
