About This Item

Volcanic rocks are named according to both their chemical composition and texture.

In the Hawaiian Religion, Pele is the goddess of fire, lightning, wind and volcanoes.  Her home is believed to be the fire pit called Halema'uma'u Crater, at the summit caldera of Kilauea, one of the Earth's most active volcanoes; but her domain encompasses all volcanic activity on the Big Island of Hawaii. Every incident with a volcanic eruption in Hawaii it is said to be Pele's way of expressing her longing to be with her true love, in many stories a young chief named Lohiau, but she's a fickle and dangerous lover who sometimes kills her husbands.  Taking volcanic rock from the Big Island is considered an insult to Pele and legend has it you will meet with disaster for commiting this offense.

    Retrieve It from a Cache 12/21/2012 safechrisLaurie retrieved it from Tony and Nicole's Travel Bug Liberty Port Florida   Visit Log

    Was doing some end of the world geocaching and found this cool little container. Since we have a cool rock collection at home, I was excited to see what was in this one! Don't think I will be able to get it to Hawaii, since my friends just moved from there, but will help it move along!
