A Synthesis of Windward Oahu Archaeology

Author(s): Alex Morrison

Year: 2019

Summary

This is an abstract from the "Research and CRM Are Not Mutually Exclusive: J. Stephen Athens—Forty Years and Counting" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Steve Athens legacy has provided archaeologists working within a historic preservation context a reminder of the numerous opportunities available to conduct research within a cultural resource management setting. This paper argues that not only does historic preservation provide a plethora of funding but also offers a long-term regional perspective for those of us committed to compliance work in a single region. To illustrate these points a synthesis of windward Oahu archaeology is provided largely based on historic preservation reports and projects conducted in the region over the last three decades. The presentation concludes with a discussion of the benefits and pitfalls of undertaking applied research within a cultural resource management setting.
