Mōʻaukala Greenwich
Ua kūkulu ʻia kēia wahi ma kahi o 5 mau kenekulia i hala, ʻoiai ʻo ia kahi noho inconspicuous, kahi i kapa ʻia ʻo "green village". I ke kenekulia 16, ua ʻimi nā makaʻāinana o ka ʻohana aliʻi, ka poʻe makemake e hoʻomaha i aneʻi.
I ka hopena o ke kenekulia 17, ma ke kauoha a Charles II Stuart, ua hoʻomaka ke kūkulu ʻana o kahi hale nānā nui i kēia wahi. A ʻo kahi hopena, ua lilo ka Royal Observatory i mea hoihoi loa iā Greenwich, a hiki i kēia lā.
