  • Human Discovery and Settlement of the Remote Easter Island (SE Pacific)
    quaternary Review Human Discovery and Settlement of the Remote Easter Island (SE Pacific) Valentí Rull Laboratory of Paleoecology, Institute of Earth Sciences Jaume Almera (ICTJA-CSIC), C. Solé i Sabarís s/n, 08028 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] Received: 19 March 2019; Accepted: 27 March 2019; Published: 2 April 2019 Abstract: The discovery and settlement of the tiny and remote Easter Island (Rapa Nui) has been a classical controversy for decades. Present-day aboriginal people and their culture are undoubtedly of Polynesian origin, but it has been debated whether Native Americans discovered the island before the Polynesian settlement. Until recently, the paradigm was that Easter Island was discovered and settled just once by Polynesians in their millennial-scale eastward migration across the Pacific. However, the evidence for cultivation and consumption of an American plant—the sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas)—on the island before the European contact (1722 CE), even prior to the Europe-America contact (1492 CE), revived controversy. This paper reviews the classical archaeological, ethnological and paleoecological literature on the subject and summarizes the information into four main hypotheses to explain the sweet potato enigma: the long-distance dispersal hypothesis, the back-and-forth hypothesis, the Heyerdahl hypothesis, and the newcomers hypothesis. These hypotheses are evaluated in light of the more recent evidence (last decade), including molecular DNA phylogeny and phylogeography of humans and associated plants and animals, physical anthropology (craniometry and dietary analysis), and new paleoecological findings. It is concluded that, with the available evidence, none of the former hypotheses may be rejected and, therefore, all possibilities remain open.

  • The Sons of Palulap: Navigating Without Instruments in Oceania
    RESOURCE FILE 1 of 2 Unit 1 - The Oceans: Historical Perspectives The Sons of Palulap: Navigating Without Instruments in Oceania Darkness fell as the rain of another line squall hissed across the tropical Pacific. The stars were smudged out. Our navigator, Piailug, ordered us to drop the sail of our 30-foot outrigger canoe, Suntory. White Horse, our partner canoe, followed suit, and we settled down to endure the chilly, wet night. Piailug estimated that we were just inside the etak of birds, the fishing grounds for seabirds from the island of Pikelot, our destination. There we drifted, waiting for morning, when the birds would fly out from their nesting sites and thus indicate the way to the island. Two days before, our little fishing expedition had left Satawal, one of the most remote of Micronesia's Caroline Islands. Our purpose was to catch sea turtles, fish, and octopus for the 600 hungry Satawalese. We were led by Mau Piailug, one of the last of the palu. These Micronesian navigators pilot hand-hewn canoes without charts or instruments, guided only by the sea's signs of land: stars, birds, and patterns of waves. Thousands of years ago Piailug's distant cousins, the Polynesians, probably used similar navigational techniques on their epic voyages of discovery to the Marquesas, Tahiti, Hawaii, Easter Island, and New Zealand. The Polynesians spread throughout the Pacific from the west in small sailing canoes like that shown opposite. (Map courtesy of Bernice P. Bishop Museum. Photo by author/The Navigators).

  • Building a Legacy of Animal Welfare Excellence
    Building a Legacy of Animal Welfare Excellence. Kitsap Humane Society’s 2018 Impact Report We’re still building ... and there’s a lot more to come. A Message from our Executive Director and Board President hen we rescued and saved the lives of 36 animals from a hoarding situation in 2018, our community donated generously for their medical care and every pet was adopted Winto a loving home. Saving more lives is what we are about. And it’s not possible without you. When we came to KHS in 2012, we heard loud and clear that KHS needed to do more: rescue more animals, save more lives, build a better shelter. We listened. Since then, we have increased our intake of animals by over 50 percent and our lifesaving rate is now 97 percent - our highest ever. Every animal touches our hearts. But our work is also about ensuring a legacy of animal welfare excellence for our community, and for the tens of thousands of animals who will arrive at our shelter in the years ahead. Our immediate goal is completing our $8.5 million capital campaign. With our community’s generous financial support, we plan to open our new Pet Adoption Center in July, and then get to work rebuilding and converting our old facility into a new Pet Lifesaving Center in 2020, anchored by an expanded Veterinary Medicine and Surgery Center. Our vision for the future goes beyond a building. We will continue to elevate the level of veterinary medicine we provide to animals in need; expand spay/neuter programs; offer canine training classes to the public; expand humane education; help more elderly citizens keep their pets; and more.

Page 1 of 5 The 3600km cable concept grew from a ‘twinkle in the eye’ of regional leaders into an International Treaty signed in April 2017, and a delivery and operating contract between the four national operators agreed in Auckland, New Zealand in November 2018. The cable installation was declared complete earlier this year, on time and within budget despite the prevailing global crisis. Today, leaders celebrated the further collaboration between Avaroa Cable in the Cook Islands and OPT in French Polynesia which has put in place the first ever live fibre cable internet connectivity from the Cook Island to the global internet. This will enable the transformation of the internet user experience in Rarotonga and Aitutaki in the Cook Islands, supercharging their connections. The Manatua One Polynesia Cable Project is the first international collaboration of its kind in the Pacific and has been seen as a future model for cooperation. The initiative aims to transform the affordability, speed, reliability and resilience of regional connectivity.

  • Childrearing Through Social Interaction on Rossel Island, PNG Penelope Brown and Marisa Casillas Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen DRAFT 23 Jan
    Childrearing through social interaction on Rossel Island, PNG Penelope Brown and Marisa Casillas Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, Nijmegen DRAFT 23 Jan. 2017 8047 words + 1595 ref.s Abstract: This paper describes childrearing practices, beliefs, and attitudes in a Papua New Guinea society - that of the Rossel Islanders - and shows, through analysis of interactions with infants and small children, how these are instantiated in everyday life. Drawing on data collected during research on Rossel Island spanning 14 years, including parental interviews, videotaped naturally-occurring interactions with babies and children, structured elicitations, and time sampling of activities involving children, we investigate the daily lives of Rossel children and consider how these influence their development of prosociality and their socialization into culturally shaped roles and characters. We relate the findings to other work on child socialization in small-scale societies, with special attention to the Tzeltal Maya of southern Mexico, and argue that detailed attention to the local socio-cultural contexts of childrearing is an important antidote to the tendency to emphasize universals of child development. 1 1. Introduction (655 words) 1.1 Anthropology of child socialization and language. The first detailed ethnographic studies of child upbringing in nonwestern settings were focused on Papua New Guinea (PNG) and Oceania. Margaret Mead initiated the field with her (1928, 1930) studies of childhood and adolescence in Samoa and Papua New Guinea (PNG). Malinowski expended some of his many pages on childhood in the Trobriands (summarized in Malinowski 1980). But the modern study of child socialization through language began with the collaboration of Bambi Schieffelin (1986a,b, 1990), working among the Kaluli of mainland PNG, and Elinor Ochs (1982, 1988), on Samoa.
