AHOEITU

Son of [EITUMATUPUA] and [ILAHEVA].

He was deposited on Earth along with his mother, but missed his old dad and so climbed the tree to Heaven for a little reunion. But his jealous half-brothers chucked him in the pot and ate him for dinner.

He was only restored to life after dad made them vomit. By way of reparation, he was made King of Tonga.

We are often asked about merchandise. Can we supply the latest Ahoeitu graphic novel, book or comic? Not to mention role-playing games (RPG), video games, Ahoeitu movies on DVD, BluRay and so on. To purchase such goodies we suggest you search for a dedicated mythology-based online store - or try Amazon, Ebay or other reputable websites. We offer a wide range of our own merchandise in our online GodShop, but we don't currently sell third party items. Yet!

Visitors often email us asking about Ahoeitu statues, sculptures or carved figurines of Ahoeitu. We regret we cannot assist with identifying such items.
