Aloha,
This photo is the ancient Hawaiian "City of Refuge." Volcanic eruptions and war caused many ancient Hawaiians to be a "refugee." If they arrived here, they were safe from harm and capture by a war party. In today's "civilized" world the idea of being a refugee has not gone away. Family has become the modern day "city of refuge."
Sadly, I missed this one when I went to visit the Big Island
