A fact from Hewahewa appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 7 December 2019 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Hewahewa, a high priest of the Hawaiian religion, supported the abolition of the kapu system and the introduction of Christianity?
Records from the 1848 Great Mahele indicated that a man named Hewahewa, who took the Christian name Hapakuka or Habakuke (Hawaiianized version of Habakkuk), died on October 20, 1848. He was the husband to a Kawelu [Nawelu], brother of a Keaka and the son of an unnamed father and Pihekei.[1] There may have been a different H. Hewahewa.[2][3]

The article states;
"According to some sources, Hewahewa had predicted the arrival of a new god from the sea in the days before the first missionaries arrived in the islands".[13][14]
