Menehune Merch
Description: Hawaiian legend says that many centuries ago, the Menehune were a group of small people, or dwarfs, who lived hidden in the forests and valleys of the islands before the first settlers arrived from Polynesia. These Menehune roamed the deep forests at night, and were said to be about two feet tall, though some were as small as six inches. They were rarely seen by human eyes, and they are credited with mighty feats of engineering and overnight construction. These industrious master builders used their great strength to build temples, fishponds, roads, canoes, and houses. This '80s souvenir style design celebrates the craftsmanship of these diminutive people, showing a Menehune as he heads off to work as the sun sets on the Hawaiian Islands.
