Kalouyalewa (pronounced [kaloujaleɰa]) (born on Nayau) was a Fijian High Chief.[1]
Kalouyalewa was a son of the Chief Naosara (Tuivanuakula II) and his wife, Adi Gelegeleavanua,[2] and thus a grandson of Chief Kubunavanua II, who was very famous.
He was born on the island of Nayau. His elder brother was named Buivaroro.[3] Their sister was Chiefess Keletu.
Kalouyalewa went on the island of Lakeba, where he married into the island’s principal chiefly families. His first wife was named Sivoki. She was a member of Cekena, the dynasty then holding the title Sau. They had two sons, Delaivugalei and Tongatapu.
Second wife of Kalouyalewa was Chiefess Tagiamarama, who bore him a son called Qoma.
Kalouyalewa’s sons would eventually play a crucial role in enabling the Vuanirewa Dynasty to succeed to the titles Roko Sau and Tui Nayau.[4]
His famous grandson was High Chief Delailoa of Lakeba.
Delaivugalei in his adult years married Adi Vulase.
