Leaving a village, the makahiki procession pauses on Hawai'i's rugged southeastern shore to gaze at Cook's Resolution, also making a circuit of the island. At this time Clerke's Discovery was far behind and out of sight. The bearer in the foreground holds the akua loa, the standard of Lono. In the village the akua pa'ani, standard of the god of sports and games, has been set up, and festivities are about to begin.
