Ka moolelo o Quayo
Loaʻa i nā mea i koe o ka nohona Mayan i ka makahiki 1973 i ka Norman Hammond o nā mea'anāʻau o Pelekānia i loko o ka pā puhi. ʻAʻole iʻike kekahi i keʻano o ka inoa o ke kūlanakauhale, no laila ua loaʻa iā lākou ka inoa inoa o lākou ma ka inoa o kahi'āina e pili kokoke ana i kaʻohana Quayo. ʻO ka hōʻuluʻuluʻana o nāʻike (me nā koena o nā holoholona a me nā mea kanu) ua hōʻike i kekahi mau mea pili i ke ola o nā India. Ua hoʻohana lākou i ka meaʻai a me ka meaʻai no kaʻai, nā kiʻi i kālaiʻia mai nā iwi holoholona, nā pōhaku i hoʻonaniʻia a me nā pūpū kai. I kēlā mau lā ma ke kūlanakauhaleʻo Quayo, kahi nohona kaiaulu, kahi māhele i nā kānaka hanohano a me ka poʻeʻilihune, e like paha, i kahi kanu o nā keiki, ua loaʻa i nā mea noiʻi nā pōhaku makamae.
