Collective action and political agency in the leeward Kohala hinterlands, Hawai‘i Island
The kuaʻ‘āina, or backcountry, in the Hawaiian Islands was the setting for a dynamic back-and-forth between the collective action of commoner class farmers and political elites. We examine how the long-term history of that dynamic left behind spatial patterns in the form and distribution of domestic, agricultural, and ritual architecture across the Leeward Kohala Field System. We find a contrast between places that were the best and most reliable…

Soil nutrients and pre‐European contact agriculture in the leeward Kohala field system, Island of Hawai‘i
Studies in the leeward Kohala field system on Hawai‘i Island have considered the processes and timing of agricultural development associated with sociopolitical transformations and the production of agricultural surpluses. Using extensive soil sampling, we explore the use of relatively mobile and immobile soil parameters within the agricultural landscape to interpret the development and maintenance of the system over time. Results show that in th…
The Growth and Collapse of Pacific Island Societies
Were there major population collapses on Pacific Islands following first contact with the West? If so, what were the actual population numbers for islands such as Hawai‘i, Tahiti, or New Caledonia? Is it possible to develop new methods for tracking the long-term histories of island populations? These and related questions are at the heart of this new book, which draws together cutting-edge research by archaeologists, ethnographers, and demographe…

Strategies for constructing religious authority in ancient Hawai'i
Through intensive archaeological investigation of temples in Hawai'i, the authors reveal a sequence of religious strategies for creating and maintaining authority that has application to prehistoric sequences everywhere. Expressed in the orientation and layout of the temples and their place in the landscape, these strategies develop in four stages over the course of a few hundred years, from the fifteenth to nineteenth century AD, from local shri…

The role of agricultural innovation on Pacific Islands
Agriculture was essential in providing for food security, population growth and surplus social production on Pacific Islands. This paper discusses innovations first seen between ad 1400 and 1650 that opened up roughly 60 per cent of the available farm land in the Hawaiian Islands. These innovations include terraced fields in narrow gulches, some using simple flooding to take irrigation water to adjacent lands, and permanent rock and earthen align…

A New Chronology for Pololu Valley, Hawai'i Island
A reanalysis of the chronology of Pololu Valley, located in the district of Kohala on Hawai'i Island, is presented using standard radiocarbon and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) dating. Using curated materials from the 1970s, Pololu is reassessed and found to have the earliest coastal occupations in this part of Hawai'i, beginning about AD 1300. Occupations at the dunes and in the valley interior are investigated, as are dryland and wetland f…
Variable Development of Dryland Agriculture in Hawaiʻi
Research in the leeward Kohala dryland agricultural field system on Hawai‘i Island provides the opportunity to develop a fine-grained chronology for its development—both expansion and intensification—using a combination of chronometric and relative dating. Two pathways for agricultural development are identified for this field system, the first beginning as early as the fourteenth century and the second after the mid-seventeenth century. This chr…

Soils, Agriculture, and Society in Precontact Hawai`i
Before European contact, Hawai`i supported large human populations in complex societies that were based on multiple pathways of intensive agriculture. We show that soils within a long-abandoned 60-square-kilometer dryland agricultural complex are substantially richer in bases and phosphorus than are those just outside it, and that this enrichment predated the establishment of intensive agriculture. Climate and soil fertility combined to constrain…

Evolutionary Theory and the Historical Development of Dry-Land Agriculture in North Kohala, Hawai'i
This GIS analysis of the dry-land agricultural field system in Kohala on the island of Hawai'i reveals patterning that is explained by evolutionary ecological principles set within a selectionist framework. The ca. 55 km2fixed-field system was developed through establishment, expansion, and intensification from the sixteenth until the early nineteenth century. During this time, differential growth rates and levels of intensification occurred in d…

Aggregation and Abandonment at Grasshopper Pueblo, Arizona
Shortly after 1300 A.C. small dispersed pueblos in the Grasshopper region of east-central Arizona were abandoned and succeeded over a short period of time by a settlement system characterized by large nucleated pueblos. This transition followed expansion of agricultural productivity and development of an extensive exchange network. This subsistence-settlement system, at first successful, was ultimately abandoned as groups failed to intensify agri…

Dryland agricultural expansion and intensification in Kohala, Hawai'i island
Intensified dryland agriculture was a component of the late prehistoric Hawaiian subsistence base. Which environmental factors permitted, encouraged, restricted, blocked the spreading of intensive agriculture into new areas of fields? A GIS study of the great field system at Kohala on the leeward side of Hawai'i Island explores the controlling variables
Anomalous Tree-Ring Dates and the Sequence of Room Construction at Canyon Creek Ruin, East Central Arizona
The tree-ring material from the Canyon Creek Ruin, east central Arizona, is reanalyzed to resolve a dating anomaly involving primary and secondary beams at the site. Most secondary beams were cut and stockpiled prior to the occupation of the locality, in contrast to primary beams which were usually cut for immediate use. By plotting the sequence of room construction between A.D. 1327 and 1360, based on the distribution of tree-ring dates and wall…
Temporal Variation Among White Mountain Redware Design Styles
Design styles on White Mountain Redware pottery from the American Southwest are time sensitive units whose application has been under-exploited. Six named design styles are systematically defined in order to produce comparably distinct classes, and the occurrence of these styles is employed to chronologically order 31 prehistoric sites in east central Arizona and western New Mexico. This seriation also provides the basis for assessing the extent …
Seriation as a method of chronologically ordering architectural design traits
Seriation, a relative dating method, can be employed to chronologically order traditional Hawaiian religious sites (known as heiau) in terms of their masonry architectural traits. This method is applied to 107 heiau identified and recorded on the island of Maui. By first separating the sites into four different geographic zones and then constructing seriations for each zone, the potential temporal orders of the seriations can be compared. Radioca…
The disparity between radiocarbon and volcanic glass dates
Two dating methods, radiocarbon and volcanic glass, are widely employed in Hawaiian archaeology. The dates produced are used inferentially and as data, especially for testing paleodemographic hypotheses. Recent work on the island of Lāna'i has demonstrated a marked temporal incongruence between the radiocarbon and volcanic glass dates from within archaeological deposits and features. Further analyses suggest that the volcanic glass dates may be i…
Growth and Aggregation at Canyon Creek Ruin
Tree-ring data from the Canyon Creek Ruin, east-central Arizona, are analyzed to evaluate two competing interpretations of pueblo growth at this well-preserved cliff dwelling. Despite an anomalous dating pattern, a logistic model best describes pueblo growth. Room construction activity is linked to population increase, which, in turn, may be divided into two varieties: natural increase, and immigration of households into the settlement. Logistic …

Organization and Differentiation within Late Prehistoric Ranked Social Units, Mariana Islands, Western Pacific
Architectural features can potentially provide information on the organization of prehistoric societies, as is here illustrated by megalithic structures from the Mariana Islands of the western Pacific. Known locally as latte, these features were constructed by prehistoric Chamorro groups and are reliably dated to a period as early as 1000–1100 A.C. They were still being built and used at the time of Spanish contact in 1565 A.C. Mortuary data and …

Probability Sampling Applied to an Early Multi-Component Surface Site in East-Central Arizona
An early attempt to employ a sampling strategy to the collection of archaeological material from a surface deposit in east-central Arizona is discussed and the rationale detailed. The identification of the site as a double-component occupation is strengthened by spatial information derived from the sampling frame. Interpretation of several loci of archaeological material within each occupation is attempted

The Polynesian settlement of the Hawaiian Archipelago
Archaeological investigations of the prehistoric colonization of East Polynesia have focused on the question: when did this event occur? A relatively late date for the colonization of Hawai'i is held by some archaeologists; an alternative view suggests that there is considerably more antiquity to the settlement of Hawai'i. This paper separates the settlement process into three components: discovery, colonization and establishment. Four settlement…
