The first gods were Ku, Ka-ne, Lono, and Kanaloa, who came from a far-off land. They brought with them a mysterious people who live in the precipices and trees and rocks. These people became the invisble spirits of the air. The earth was a calabash, a large, round gourd. The gods threw the calabash up, and it became the sky. Part of the thick flesh of the calabash became the sun, and part of it became the moon. The seeds formed the stars.
