"In times of peace, competitive games were substitutes for warfare. ... Kamehameha gave British Captain George Vancouver a demonstration of his skill. Stripping down to a loin cloth, he stepped out before his men, and had six spears thrown at him simultaneously and with full force. He caught two, parried three and deflected one."

Ancient Hawaii, page 49
