The purpose of this project is to document archaeologically the sequence of cultural changes that followed the early first millennium A.D. settlement of Hawai'i from a Central East Polynesian homeland. The project focuses on the windward coast of Oahu because this well-watered coastal plain, comprising one of the most ecologically favorable environments of the island, was among the first areas to be settled. Cultural developments during the early periods of Hawaiian prehistory reflect adaptation...

The objective of this document is to correct and update the 2001 EBS so that it can be certified. In 1996 the U.S. Air Force conducted an Environmental Baseline Survey (EBS) on an approximately 170-acre parcel at Bellows Air Force Station (BAFS) that they declared excess. The purpose of that survey was to define and document the presence, nature, and extent of hazardous substances that may require remedial action to protect human health or the environment in accordance with Air Force Instruction...

Five pollen samples were submitted from Trench 5 and a Waterline Extension Trench in downtown Honolulu. The 801 South Street Building B project explores wetland deposits that existed prior to development of downtown Honolulu. Pollen analysis examines these deposits for evidence that they were either a natural wetland or were modified and functioned as a pondfield or fishpond.

Two samples were collected from a possible berm or edge of a berm between fishponds located on a previous floodplain at Fort DeRussy. Cultivation of wetland taro is a possibility prior to construction of the fishponds. Pollen analysis was undertaken to search for evidence that taro was grown in this area.

A single sample from a gleyed, organic-rich sandy layer within deposits identified as representing a brackish estuary for the Maunalua 2 Project was examined for pollen in an effort to confirm that this area was used as a fish pond. In addition, pollen analysis has the potential to identify some of the local plants growing at the time this area was used.

Pollen analyses collected from sediments exposed in trenches for the Kalihi 22 project were conducted in an effort to define the past environment and identify evidence of agriculture. The project is located in the greater Waikiki area on the south shore of Oahu. Samples from trenches in the city center and airport sections have been examined to date.

Sediment samples collected during a Phase II mitigation of the Honolulu High-Capacity Transit Corridor Project on O’ahu Island, Hawai’i were examined for pollen. The samples were collected from buried deposits thought to represent traditional Hawaiian wetland taro agriculture (lo’i) (Matt McDermott, personal communication, March 2, 2011). Pollen analysis was used to search for evidence of taro agriculture.

The Ward Block F Project is located in the Kaka’ako neighborhood of the city of Honolulu, O’ahu, Hawai’i, along the coast between Downtown Honolulu and Waikiki. Excavation of Site CSH 2 uncovered berms and pans related to historic period (post-1778) salt production below 20th century fill deposits. Eleven sediment samples were collected from Site CSH 2 for pollen analysis to determine the extent of historic human modification of the coastal landscape into salt production complexes.

Loko Kaipuni (SIHP # 50-80-14-4573), a Hawaiian fishpond located in Waikīkī, O’ahu, Hawai’i, was used during both the pre-Contact and historic periods. In 1919 and 1928 it was filled with coral dredge from the Ala Wai Canal. A sediment sample collected from the center of the monitor trench excavation was submitted for pollen and macrofloral analysis to establish baseline environmental information for the vicinity of the fishpond and to answer questions of how the fishpond was used.

The Kahanahou WWPS Upgrade and Sewer Improvements Project area in Kāne‘ohe, which includes Site SIHP #50-80-10-0343 and SIHP #50-80-10-8820, is located in the district of Ko‘olaupoko on the windward (ko‘olau) side of O‘ahu. Site SIHP #50-80-10-0343 represents the Kalokohanahou Fishpond, a loko kuapā (fishpond with seawalls) likely in use by the 14th century (if not earlier) and filled in the 1940s for residential development (G. Farley, personal communication, 3 June 2019; Kikuchi 1972:9,213)....

Samples collected as part of the Waikiki 88 AIS AMC Ewa Expansion project in Honolulu. Six samples were examined using resistivity to determine whether or not they represented salt pans. Five samples were examined for pollen and one was examined for phytoliths to identify local vegetation and use of the areas tested.

A pre-construction archaeological resource survey was conducted by T. S. Dye & Colleagues, Archaeologists, Inc., at the proposed Iodation of the new Civil Engineering Building at Bellows Air Force Station, Waimanalo, O'ahu. The survey consisted of the excavation of four backhoe trenches, recording of stratigraphy, identification of traditional Hawaiian features, and collection of samples. Excavations revealed a disturbed paleosol throughout the project area, two traditional Hawaiian fire-pit...

A pre-construction archaeological resources survey was conducted by T S. Dye & Colleagues, Archaeologists, Inc. at the proposed location of the New Recreational Lodging project at Bellows Air Force Station, Waimānalo, O'ahu. The survey was carried out in two phases. During the first phase, nine backhoe trenches excavated in the proposed leach field revealed two buried cultural layers containing numerous small pit features, seven of which were dated to the traditional Hawaiian period. The 7...

Archaeological field investigations were initiated on October 24, 1986 and completed on November 3, 1986 for a total of 5 field days. The proposed OMNI antenna site is to be situated within the abandoned runway area of Bellows Air Force Station. A number of other antennae are presently located throughout the runway area. In order to locate the boundaries of the antenna pad and cable trench alignment, it was necessary to compute bearings from the engineering map and then shoot these in with a...

ln the spring of 1975, archaeological research was conducted by the University of Hawaii, Department of Anthropology, along the sides of Waimānalo Stream inland of the National Register boundary. Survey and excavations revealed extensive material representing an occupation of around A. D. 1000 and earlier. Excavations within the Bellows Archaeological Zone hove resulted in the discovery of additional cultural deposits which enhance the importance of 0-18. It is suggested that the Bellows...
