Name/Title
Diamond Head Honolulu, HawaiiDescription
Inscribed "Diamond Head Honolulu, Hawaii"
Known as Lēʻahi in Hawaiian, the mountain was given the name Diamond Hill in 1825 by British sailors who discovered sparkling volcanic calcite crystals in the sand and mistook them for diamonds. This is reflected in another local name, Kaimana Hila. The name later became Diamond Head, with head being shortened from headland.[5]
