Pi'o: Enquiry into the Marriage of Brothers and Sisters and Other Close Relatives in Old Hawai'i
William H. Davenport
Offers a contextual analysis of the marriage pattern in Old Hawai'i called ho'ao pi'o, or just pi'o, which involved the legitimate marriages of close relatives. This text studies the social ranking system of pi'o marriages and examines whether they were the perogative of sacred aristocrats.
