Site NUU-100 (Halekou Heiau)

Digitally-generated horizon profile of the western horizon as seen from heiau NUU-100. The horizontal bar indicates the main axial orientation of the heiau. The darker yellow lines indicate the setting paths of the sun at the December solstice (left) and June solstice (right); the lighter yellow line indicates the setting path of the sun at the equinoxes; and the blue line indicates the setting path of the Pleiades in A.D. 1600.
