Lono

Prikaz boga Lona kao boga slatkog krompira (batat)
Procesija u čast Lona na Havajima

Prema havajskoj mitologiji, bog Lono je bog plodnosti, seksa, kiše, muzike i hrane.

Stari Havajci su ga smatrali izuzetno dobrim bogom te je bio omiljeno božanstvo od davnina.

Njegova supruga u mitu je božica Laka,[1] a njegovi simboli su duga i oblaci.[2]

Lono je, prema mitu, postojao još prije nastanka svemira te je jedan od četvorice velikih havajskih bogova.

Kult

Na drevnim Havajima kult Lona je uključivao veliki festival zvan Makahiki („godina“).[3][4] Tokom festivala bilo je zabranjeno ratovanje jer je Lono bog mira i dobrih stvari.

Naslovi

  • Lononuinohoikawai („veliki Lono koji prebiva među vodama“)[5]
  • Lonomakua („otac Lono“)

Značajne ličnosti nazvane po Lonu

Kralj Havaja Keawe I je bio otac poglavice Lonoikamakahikija,[6][7] koji je nazvan po Lonu[8] jer je vrlo vjerovatno rođen tokom perioda Makahikija.

Princeza havajskog ostrva Mauija, poglavarka Piʻilaniwahine II, imala je kćerku i sina koji su oboje bili nazvani po Lonu – bili su to kraljica Havaja Lonomaʻaikanaka[9] i njen brat Lono.

Lonomaʻaikanaka je bila majka princa Kalaninuiamama, kojeg je sama zvala Lono.[10]

Još su mnogi drugi plemići nosili Lonovo ime te se čini da je to bilo zabranjeno njihovim podanicima.
