The Hawaiians had numerous temples that were used to worship different kinds of gods. Basically, these shrines came in two types, those being raised platforms and walled enclosures. Oracle towers were also a regular type of structure found in these temples. Some of the the things that most Hawaiians would pray for and have rituals for include aid in wars, fertility, harvesting season, death, attaining adulthood, and birth. The kahuna would normally act as ritual leaders and participators. The kapu system also applies to religoius practices, as this strict set of rules guarded against taboo or improper actions.
