From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
In Polynesian mythology, Tinirau is a god of fish and the ocean. He has a dual nature; one destructive as the god of sharks, and one a kind, handsome male youth. As a human, his right side is human and his left side if a fish. He is married to Hina Keha, a lunar deity. Hina Uri, a different lunar deity, fell in love with him but he scorned her.
