In this documentary, forensic geologist Scott Walter investigates the enduring mystery of the Menahune, a legendary race of "little people" said to have inhabited the Hawaiian Islands long before the arrival of the Polynesians. By examining sophisticated dry-stack masonry at the Menahune Ditch on Kaua'i and comparing legends with the archaeological discovery of Homo floresiensis, Walter explores whether these mythical builders were a real, distinct ethnic group or a forgotten lower class of ancient engineers. From sacred navigation sites on the forbidden island of Kaho’olawe to high-tech forensic analysis of volcanic rock, we uncover the truth hidden within Polynesian oral history.
