Paired geochemical and technological analyses of basalt adze debitage at the Hālawa Dune Site, Molokaʻi Island, Hawaiʻi
Datos Bibliográficos
We analysed 1593 basalt artefacts from the Hālawa Dune Site, on the easternmost part of Molokaʻi Island, for a combination of geochemical and technological attributes to expose different reduction strategies related to basalt adze production and rejuvenation. West Molokaʻi is well known as a location where many outcrops were quarried to make adzes, but the island's east side has not been widely perceived as a location where adzes were produced in significant quantities in the prehistoric economy. We infer, however, through large‐scale geochemical non‐destructive energy‐dispersive X‐ray fluorescence (EDXRF) analyses, combined with technological analyses, that the majority of adzes at the Hālawa Dune Site were manufactured from local resources, supporting a predominantly localised pattern of adze production and use. Approximately one third of the adze debitage clearly related to use and rejuvenation (DA) is made from non‐local sources, but does not represent a heavy reliance on the full range of quarries on West Molokaʻi, and may also include samples derived from other islands or archipelagos
