Historical Ethnography and Archaeology of Russian Fort Elisabeth State Historical Park, Waimea, Kaua'i
Historical Ethnography and Archaeology of Russian Fort Elisabeth State Historical Park, Waimea, Kaua'i Peter R Mills Department ofAnthropology, University ofVermont Introduction There is a sign on the highway in Waimea, Kaua'i in the Hawaiian Islands with the words "Russian Fort" printed on it. Local residents use the same term to refer to the State Historical Park that the sign marks. I give this introduction not because it is the best, but because it is the one that everyone else gets. Fort Elisabeth was built in Waimea, Kaua' i following an alliance between Kaumuali'i, paramount chief of Kaua'i, and Georg Anton Schiffer of the Russian-American Company (RAC) in 1816. Georg Schaffer and the RAC were forced to leave Kaua'i in 1817 which left Kaumuali'i in sole control of the fort. Most tourists visiting the site are surprised to fmd that Russians were building forts in the Hawaiian Islands, but the story of Fort Elisabeth and two smaller forts (Alexander and Barclay) on the north shore of Kaua'i (Figure 1) has been "well-tilled" (Barratt 1988:v) for over a century (Alexander 1894; Barratt 1988:15-24; Bolkhovitinov 1973; Bradley 1942; Emerson 1900; Golder 1930; Gronski 1928; Jarves 1844:201-203; Mazour 1937; Mehnert 1939: 22-65; Okun 1951; Pierce 1965; Tumarkin 1964:134-166; Whitney 1838:48-51). On Kaua'i, Fort Elisabeth seems to be perceived as a cumbersome and obscure monument to 19th century European expansion, lacking in any connection to traditional Hawaiian landscapes. Within the academic community, little recent attention focuses on the fort other than Richard Pierce's Russia's Hawaiian Adventure 1815-1817 (1965) with a follow-up article by Bolkhovitinov (1973). -

By Carellin Brooks
Carellin Brooks was born in Vancouver in 1970. She has lived in Ottawa, Montreal, New York, Oxford and London (UK), San Diego, Seattle, Japan, and Salt Lake City. She holds a BA from McGill and, as you will read, is working toward a DPhil from Oxford. She is the managing editor at New Star Books in Vancouver and an instructor at University of British Columbia. Rhodekill: She tried to put Oxford behind her…to no avail Carellin Brooks I first heard about the Rhodes Scholarship when a woman in one of my undergraduate classes in Canada was introduced to us all as having won one. She smiled modestly; she was a quiet- looking person overall, devoid of makeup and the opposite of flashy. I am embarrassed to admit I looked her over and thought, “Well, if she can do it, so can I.” I was a brash young thing in those days, all attitude and platinum hair cut to an inch. I had grown up in the foster-care system and was a pet of the agency back in my hometown which bankrolled my studies. The director of the agency took a personal interest in my application and woke me at seven one morning with a phone call. “Fencing.” “Wha…?” “Fencing. I’ve been thinking it over. You need a sport.” Aside from aerobics in high school, my athletic experience consisted of breaking my glasses on fly balls, being chosen last for elementary- school teams and, in confirmation of the wisdom of this, scoring goals for the opposing team. “Fencing’s really esoteric,” he continued, “so it won’t stick out that you’re not very athletic.” It was a good idea but in the end my athletic credentials consisted of my hour-long daily walk to school. -
