Hoʻoweliweli ka moeʻuhane iā mākou. ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, hiki ke unuhi ʻia ka hapa nui o lākou ma ke ʻano hoʻohālikelike. Akā, pehea nā hihia o nā moeʻuhane wānana i wānana i ka make? Ke hoʻāʻo nei ʻo Philosopher Sharon Rowlett e noʻonoʻo i ke kumuhana, me ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka ʻikepili mai kahi noiʻi hou.
I Kekemapa 1975, ua ala mai kahi wahine i kapa ʻia ʻo Allison mai kahi moeʻuhane i kahi o kāna kaikamahine ʻehā makahiki ʻo Tessa ma ke ala kaʻaahi. I ka hoʻāʻo ʻana o ka wahine e lawe i ke keiki i kahi palekana, ʻo ia iho i ku a make i ke kaʻaahi. Ala aʻela ʻo Allison me ka waimaka a haʻi i kāna kāne e pili ana i ka moeʻuhane.
Ma lalo o ʻelua pule, aia ʻo Allison a me kāna kaikamahine ma ke kahua. Ua hāʻule kekahi mea ma luna o ke kaʻaahi, a me ka hoʻāʻo ʻana e kiʻi, ua hehi ke kaikamahine ma hope. Ua ʻike ʻo Allison i kahi kaʻaahi e neʻe mai ana a holo wikiwiki ʻo ia e hoʻopakele i kāna kaikamahine. Ua hahau ke kaaahi ia laua a make.
Ua haʻi aku ke kāne a Allison i ka mea noiʻi moeʻuhane ʻo Dr. David Ryback i ka mea i hana ʻia. Ma muli o ka pōʻino weliweli, ua haʻi ke kanaka i ka ʻōlelo aʻo i loaʻa iā ia a me Allison ma mua koke o ka pōʻino e hāʻawi iā ia i kahi ʻano hōʻoluʻolu. Ua "hoʻokokoke loa iaʻu iā Allison lāua ʻo Tessa," i kākau ai ʻo ia iā Ryback, "no ka mea, ʻo kekahi mea aʻu i maopopo ʻole ai ua hoʻomaopopo ʻia kaʻu wahine."
Nui nā moʻolelo moemoeā e aʻo ana i ka make, kākau ʻo Sharon Rowlett, ke akeakamai a me ka mea kākau o kahi puke e pili ana i nā coincidences a me ka hana a lākou e pāʻani ai i nā hopena kanaka. "Malia paha ua loaʻa iā ʻoe a i ʻole kekahi mea āu i ʻike ai i ka moeʻuhane like. Akā, hiki paha iā lākou ke hana wale? I ka hopena, ʻaʻole i hoʻokō ʻia ka nui o nā moeʻuhane e pili ana i ka make - ʻo wai ke nānā aku iā lākou?
Ua ʻike ʻia aia ma ka liʻiliʻi hoʻokahi kanaka i hahai i kēlā mau moʻolelo. Ua kānalua ʻo Kauka Andrew Puckett i ka manaʻo e hiki i nā moeʻuhane ke wānana i ka wā e hiki mai ana. Ua hoʻomaka ʻo ia e mālama i kahi diary kikoʻī o kāna mau moeʻuhane e hōʻoiaʻiʻo ʻo kāna mau moeʻuhane "wīwī" ʻaʻole ʻē aʻe ma mua o nā huahana maʻamau o ka hana lolo.
I nā makahiki 25, mai 1989 a i 2014, ua hoʻopaʻa ʻo ia i 11 o kāna mau moeʻuhane. Ua lawe koke ʻo ia i nā memo ma hope o ke ala ʻana a ma mua o ka hiki ke "nānā ʻia" nā moeʻuhane. I ka makahiki 779, ua hoʻopuka ʻo Paquette i kahi kānana o kāna mau moeʻuhane make.
I ka ʻike ʻana i ka make ʻana o kahi hoaaloha ma ka moeʻuhane, ala ka ʻepekema me ka hilinaʻi piha he wānana ka moeʻuhane.
Ua hoʻomaka ʻo Puckett i ke aʻo ʻana ma ka nānā ʻana i kāna "database". I loko o ia mea, ua koho ʻo ia i nā moeʻuhane i make ai kekahi. Ua ʻimi ʻo ia i nā moeʻuhane āna i ʻike ai ma mua o ka loaʻa ʻana o ka ʻike e pili ana i ka make ʻana o ka mea moeʻuhane. I loko o ka puke moʻolelo, aia ma kahi o 87 mau moeʻuhane e pili ana i 50 mau kānaka āna i ʻike ai. I ka manawa i hana ai ʻo ia i ka loiloi, 12 o 50 mau kānaka (ʻo ia hoʻi 24%) i make.
ʻAʻole i pau ka noiʻi ma laila. No laila, 12 poʻe i make maoli i ka hopena. Ua hele ke kauka i kāna mau memo a helu i nā lā a i ʻole mau makahiki i kēlā me kēia hihia ma waena o ka moeʻuhane a me ka hanana maoli. Uaʻikeʻia no ka 9 o ka 12 o ka moeʻuhane "ka wānana" ka hope loa o nā moeʻuhane e pili ana i kēia kanaka. ʻO nā moeʻuhane ʻē aʻe a Puckett e pili ana iā lākou i hana ʻia ma mua a, no laila, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka lā i make ai.
ʻO ka manawa maʻamau ma waena o ka moeʻuhane e pili ana i ka make ʻana o kahi hoaaloha a me ka hopena maoli o kona ola ma kahi o 6 mau makahiki. ʻIke loa, ʻoiai inā i manaʻo ʻia ka moeʻuhane he wānana, ʻaʻole hiki ke hilinaʻi i ka wānana o ka lā pololei o ka make.
ʻO ka mea kupanaha loa ka hihia i loaʻa iā Puckett ka moeʻuhane i ka pō ma mua o ka make ʻana o kēia kanaka. I ka manawa like, i ka makahiki i hala, ʻaʻole ʻo Paquette, ʻaʻole ʻo ia iho a i ʻole ma o nā kamaʻāina like ʻole, i hoʻomau i ka pilina me ia. Eia naʻe, ua ʻike ʻo ia i ka make ʻana o kahi hoaaloha ma ka moeʻuhane, ala ʻo ia me ka hilinaʻi piha he wānana ka moeʻuhane. Ua haʻi ʻo ia i kāna wahine a me kāna kaikamahine e pili ana iā ia a i kekahi lā aʻe ua loaʻa iā ia kahi leka uila me ka lono kaumaha. I kēlā manawa, wānana maoli ka moeʻuhane i kahi hanana maoli.
Wahi a Sharon Rowlett, hōʻike kēia hihia e hiki iā ʻoe ke aʻo e hoʻokaʻawale i waena o nā moeʻuhane e pili ana i ka make. ʻO ka mea mua he ʻōlelo aʻo he ʻoiaʻiʻo ka make - ua hiki mai a hiki koke mai paha. Wahi a ka hope e hiki mai ana ka make ma hope o kekahi manawa, a i ʻole e hoʻohana ia mea ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻohālike.
ʻO ka ʻike hou aʻe o ka hana a Puckett a me kēia kumuhana holoʻokoʻa hiki ke hoʻopuka i nā hopena hoihoi, maopopo ʻo Sharon Rowlett. ʻO ka paʻakikī ka loaʻa ʻana o ka poʻe i makemake e hoʻopaʻa i nā moeʻuhane i nā makahiki a hāʻawi i nā moʻolelo no ke aʻo ʻana.
