In ancient Hawaii, only royalty could own or wear precious objects made of feathers. The kāhili which is a symbol of power in their ancient culture was made up of the enemy king's long bones and covered with feathers obtained from birds of prey. This was a symbol of nobility and royalty in ancient Hawaii.
