Ipu o Lono is the name given to the pōhaku in a 1977 article in the Windward Sun Press, which also published an image of a stone 4-5 feet high at this spot. What happened to it is a mystery. Only a small remnant remains on a curbed earth platform. I remember the large stone at this spot from my childhood, when we made trips across the mountain on the old Pali Road. One was not supposed to bring pork past this stone at midnight. The stone was known to everyone in Kailua. - Pōhkunui, 2006

The only stone at a site with massive earth terraces, all under a thicket of hau. Chunks of branch coral lie in the stream below. The site matches McAllisterʻs 1933 description of Kahekili Heiau. However, members of the Koʻolaupoko Hawaiian Civic Club cite other cultural informants who located Kahekili near the H3 Freeway tunnel. A visit confirmed that a few chunks of coral were present there at that site. - Ulupō, 1988

Around 2014, a large kiawe tree fell on this enclosure, damaging it. Note the opening in the side of the small platform. The original archaeological team that identified this heiau dismantled the structure and then rebuilt it somewhat shorter, without the empty space in its center. The space may have had a ceremonial function. - Ahuaʻumi, 2004
