Analea Keohokālole (c. 1816–1869) was a Hawaiian chiefess and matriarch of the House of Kalākaua that ruled the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi from 1874 to 1893. Her Hawaiian name Keohokālole means "the straight hair of her own father's tresses" and was given to her at birth by Queen Kaʻahumanu.{{cite book|title=All about Hawaii: The Recognized Book of Authentic Information on Hawaii, Combined with Thrum's Hawaiian Annual and Standard Guide|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=A0oxAQAAIAAJ|volume=91|year=1974|publisher=Honolulu Star-Bulletin|location=Honolulu|page=259}}
Life
Keohokālole was born at Kailua-Kona, Hawaii in about 1816. She was daughter of the High Chiefess Kamaeokalani and the High Chief ʻAikanaka. Through her father she was descended from Kame'eiamoku and Keawe-a-Heulu two of the four Kona chiefs that supported Kamehameha I.

In 1833 she married Caesar Kapaʻakea, a chief of lesser rank and her first cousin. Their union produced more than ten children. They were among the few Hawaiian chiefs to have such a large family. Many nobles of their time died very young and issueless. Their children were: James, David, Lydia, Anna, Kaʻiminaʻauao, Miriam, and Leleiohoku. She inherited vast tracts of land from her paternal grandmother Keohohiwa and great uncle Naihe.{{cite web|title=Keohokālole, Ane/Analea |url=http://aupunihawaii.com/Documents/KEOHOKALOLE,%20ANE-ANALEA%20(w)%20%20%20%20%20%20%20ALii%20AWARD%20%20%20%20%20%20LCA%208452%20%20.pdf |page=364 |work=Mahele Book |access-date=2009-11-24 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110707185313/http://aupunihawaii.com/Documents/KEOHOKALOLE%2C%20ANE-ANALEA%20%28w%29%20%20%20%20%20%20%20ALii%20AWARD%20%20%20%20%20%20LCA%208452%20%20.pdf |archive-date=2011-07-07 }}
Like many of the high chiefs, she quickly found herself land rich but cash poor. The wealthiest chief was the monarch with landholding worth perhaps $1.3 billion in today's dollars.{{when|date=July 2022}} Unlike the monarch, the average high chief got an award, after taxes, of perhaps just a bit over $3.5 million. Keohokālole gained lands worth quite a bit more than the average chief. By the time of her death, only half the land she inherited from her father remained, which had to be divided by her four surviving children: David, William, Miriam and Lydia.Kahana: How the Land Was Lost By Robert H. Stauffer. Page 70-84 When David Kalākaua became king less than twenty years later he had no great personal wealth. His lack of money and his attempts at securing income commensurate with his view of his station caused his reign to be dogged by bribery and corruption scandals.
She served as a member of the House of Nobles from 1841 to 1847, and on the King's Privy Council 1846 to 1847.{{cite web |url=http://archives1.dags.hawaii.gov/gsdl/collect/governme/index/assoc/HASH010f/4bf6043d.dir/Keohokalole,%20A.jpg |title=Keohokalole, A.
