What does Hawaii's caste system entail?
It was acknowledged by the Hawaiian caste system that people were born into particular social classes.
Each class was given specific tasks and obligations. They comprised:
Chiefs Ali'i, commoners Maka'ainana, and king Kahuna (priests).
Except in cases where a person becomes an outcast, no one could move from one class to another.
