In 1970, Robert Renger, then a graduate student at the University of California at Santa Barbara (UCSB), conducted an intensive archaeological survey in the seaward portions of a land unit (ahupua'a) called Kaloko, located in North Kana on Hawai'i Island (Fig. I). This survey was one of Hawaii's early contract archaeology projects, undertaken for Huehue Ranch, the landowner, which was then planning a development in seaward Kaloko. Eighty-nine sites were identified between the Queen Ka'abumanu...

The following is the archeological excavation report. Previous work by the Bishop Museum is briefly reviewed and correlated with the present project. The work is based on the research design approved by the National Park Service (National Park Service 1977) in consultation with Bishop Museum staff and...

Public architecture has proven its utility as a metric for the materialization of religious authority however archaeologists have been less successful at identifying how ideology is materialized outside of formal ritual settings. Here we address the question of how religious laws that dictated separation of people and activities – known as the kapu system – influenced the way homes were built in pre-European contact era Hawai‘i. On the landscape scale, we consider three variables that could be...

The park is nearly two miles long and a half mile wide. It runs parallel to the beautiful Pacific Ocean forming the Kona coast. Along the coast and inland are numerous archeological features: bait cups cut into solid pahoehoe by the ancient Polynesians: papamu, a type of checkerboard used in the game of konane; ancient house and grave...

Recent archaeological work at Kahaluu Ahupua’a, located on the western coast of Hawai’i Island, recovered sediment samples from Po’o Pond. Two samples, one from the southern portion and one from the central portion, collected from one meter below the water table, were submitted for pollen analysis to determine use of the area (Trevor Yucha, personal communication June 29, 2015). Previous pollen analysis for this site examined three sediment samples from open air water wells (Scott Cummings...
