New taxonomic records and regional trends for the Marquesan prehistoric marine fishery, Eiao Island, Polynesia
Eiao Island (39.2 km2, 577 m elevation), situated at the northern extent of the Marquesas Archipelago, features rocky and steep coastlines with few sheltered embayments that allow easy access to the sea and marine resources. We report the first evidence of prehistoric fishing practices from Eiao Island based on three inland sites (possibly dating from the 14th to 17th centuries), and explore variation in fish exploitation (NISP = 1021; MNI = 157)…
Putting new francophone archaeology on the Pacific map
On 24 November 2016, an international workshop bringing together francophone early‐career researchers and practitioners currently active in the field of Pacific archaeology was organised at The Australian National University. As access to opportunities for transnational exchange and representation of their work is not always easy for this group, the aim was to provide an occasion for the ECRs to present their work in English to the Australia‐base…
Determining the geochemical variability of fine‐grained basalt sources/quarries for facilitating prehistoric interaction studies in P olynesia
Polynesian adze sourcing studies that rely on geochemical analyses to assign distant artefacts to a source or quarry have been undertaken for more than three decades. Understanding intra‐source geochemical variability is essential for robust artefact source assignments, yet these data are not available for most quarries. We provide a seven‐step protocol for sampling source rocks and associated artefacts at quarries and, using the large Eiao quarr…
Non-destructive XRF Analyses of Fine-grained Basalts from Eiao, Marquesas Islands
The Marquesan island of Eiao was an important source of fine-grained basalt in Central East Polynesia, with examples being identified in archaeological assemblages throughout the region. However, compared to many other large-scale Polynesian basalt sources, little has been published about the physical extent and geochemical variability of tool-quality basalt on Eiao; prior to our study, only a single site with evidence of stone extraction had bee…
Les disques de pierre de Eiao. Présence d’éléments d’un ancien jeu hawai’ien dans le nord de l’archipel des Marquises, une preuve de relations inter-archipels à l’époque pré-européenne
Quand les Européens débarquèrent sur leur île, les Hawai’iens pratiquaient un jeu d’adresse utilisant de petits disques façonnés dans de la lave ou du grès de plage, généralement polis ou lisses, aux faces plus ou moins convexes. Ces petits disques de pierre, comme le jeu lui-même, portaient le nom de ’ulu maika. Plusieurs sources écrites décrivent ce jeu, dont les règles pouvaient éventuellement changer d’une vallée à l’autre. Aux îles Marquises…
