Keaweaheulu Kaluaʻapana (sometimes Keawe-a-Heulu) was a Hawaiian high chief and maternal great-grandfather of King Kalākaua and Queen Liliʻuokalani. He was among Kamehameha I's council of chiefs and was one of the Five Kona chiefs.

He was known as a High Chief of the Waiʻanae district of the island of Oʻahu. His father was the High Chief Heulu, descendant of the ʻI family of Hilo, and his mother the High Chiefess Ikuaʻana, descendant of the Mahi family of Kohala. He was also cousin to Kamehameha's father Keōua Nui. His father was the half-brother of Kamakaimoku, the grandmother of Kamehameha I. He assisted Kamehameha in the overthrow of his cousin Kiwalaʻo, and then as his strategist and general in his compaigns. In 1791 he assisted Kamehameha in defeating Keōua Kuahuʻula the chief of Kaʻū and Puna. Kamehameha had summoned him and gave him this order: "Go to Keōua Kuhauʻula and tell him that great is my desire to make friends. You are the best one to bear the message, for you are related to his mother, and he will heed your words sooner than anything I could say to him." Keaweaheulu on arrival at Kaʻū made known his errand and at once hastened to Keōua's camp. The chief consented to become friends and boarded a canoe with him back to Kona and Kawaihae. When he arrived at the Puʻukoholā Heiau Keōua was killed as a sacrifice by Kamehameha, uniting the Big Island for the first time since the days of Keaweʻīkekahialiʻiokamoku. He died in 1804 on Oahu of the ʻOkuʻu pestilence, which was said to resemble cholera. He was the last of Kamehameha's five Kona chiefs to die. Their sons succeed to their father's post; his son Naihe took his positions in Kamehameha's council of chiefs.
