QUIPUHA. Chamorro.
Probably from the name of the quipua tree, the seeds
of which have the smell of Juniper, found in the sandy plains round Ambato.
(The Journal of Botany, v.1, Hooker, 1834).
When the Spanish
landed off the shores of Guam in 1668, it was Chief Quipuha (also Kepuha)
who was the
high-ranking male. His death had been foretold by the superior of
the mission, which happened accordingly. (A Chronological History of
the Discoveries in the South Sea or Pacific Ocean, Burney, 1817).
