content: From card: ""This ikoi from Kauai was termed ikoi-piko, or ikoi-pua. The line would be coiled up in the cup shaped hollow, and the whole carried hidden in a fold of the malo [man's loincloth], ready for use at any time. Its consequent closeness to the navel, in the fold of the malo, gave to it the name piko, navel.""
