ûEwa was one of the original districts, known as moku, of the island of Oûahu in Ancient Hawaii history.
The word ûewa means "crooked" or "ill-fitting" in Hawaiian. The name comes from the myth that the gods KÃÂne and Kanaloa threw a stone to determine the boundaries, but it was lost and later found at Pili o Kahe.
ûEwa is used in Honolulu to indicate the western direction, in opposition to Diamond Head for the eastern direction.
