Pele

Pele is the name of a volcano goddess in Hawaii. The volcano she is said to live in is on the largest island of Hawaii and is called 'Kilauea'.

A local Hawaiian might say "Have you visited the volcano of Pele? It's very sacred." "Kilauea is home of Pele, a volcano goddess who protects Hawaiians from the violent volcanic eruptions."
