Entered deity / male / immortal / primordial. SOLITARY: self-existent and parentless by definition. The Kiho cult as Stimson reconstructed it was later questioned for its antiquity/spread by K. P. Emory; the figure is firmly attested in Stimson's recorded chants and is the apex of the esoteric Tuamotuan recension. Not genealogically harmonized with the Atea–Fakahotu cosmogony (a separate recension), so no kin edge is asserted.
