Description: Hawaiian chief Kekūanāoʻa (1791–1868) took the name "Mateo" (often spelled Mataio) when he converted to Christianity. Although never officially proclaimed a "Prince", he married four times to high ranking women. His sons and daughters would include two future kings, King Kamehameha IV and King Kamehameha V. He served many positions in the Kingdom government, including governor of Oahu, and Kuhina Nui, (similar to a co-regent or prime minister).
