Current consensus considers the most probable date of birth as being 1758 and is supported by the stories of a bright star that appeared when he was born, corresponding with Halley's Comet that was visible from earth that year; born Kapakai, Kokoiki, Moʻokini Heiau, Kohala, Hawaiʻi Island; Kamakahonu, Kailua-Kona, Kona, Hawaiʻi island; reign: July 1782-May 8, 1819)
