  • The 16 STATES
    The 16 STATES Pristine Paradise. 2 Palau is an archipelago of diverse terrain, flora and fauna. There is the largest island of volcanic origin, called Babeldaob, the outer atoll and limestone islands, the Southern Lagoon and islands of Koror, and the southwest islands, which are located about 250 miles southwest of Palau. These regions are divided into sixteen states, each with their own distinct features and attractions. Transportation to these states is mainly by road, boat, or small aircraft. Koror is a group of islands connected by bridges and causeways, and is joined to Babeldaob Island by the Japan-Palau Friendship Bridge. Once in Babeldaob, driving the circumference of the island on the highway can be done in a half day or full day, depending on the number of stops you would like. The outer islands of Angaur and Peleliu are at the southern region of the archipelago, and are accessable by small aircraft or boat, and there is a regularly scheduled state ferry that stops at both islands. Kayangel, to the north of Babeldaob, can also be visited by boat or helicopter. The Southwest Islands, due to their remote location, are only accessible by large ocean-going vessels, but are a glimpse into Palau’s simplicity and beauty. When visiting these pristine areas, it is necessary to contact the State Offices in order to be introduced to these cultural treasures through a knowledgeable guide. While some fees may apply, your contribution will be used for the preservation of these sites. Please see page 19 for a list of the state offices.

  • A Summary of Palau's Typhoon History 1945-2013
    A Summary of Palau’s Typhoon History 1945-2013 Coral Reef Research Foundation, Palau Dec, 2014 © Coral Reef Research Foundation 2014 Suggested citation: Coral Reef Research Foundation, 2014. A Summary of Palau’s Typhoon History. Technical Report, 17pp. www.coralreefpalau.org Additions and suggestions welcome. Please email: [email protected] 2 Summary: Since 1945 Palau has had 68 recorded typhoons, tropical storms or tropical depressions come within 200 nmi of its islands or reefs. At their nearest point to Palau, 20 of these were typhoon strength with winds ≥64kts, or an average of 1 typhoon every 3 years. November and December had the highest number of significant storms; July had none over 40 kts and August had no recorded storms. Data Compilation: Storms within 200 nmi (nautical miles) of Palau were identified from the Digital Typhoon, National Institute of Informatics, Japan web site (http://agora.ex.nii.ac.jp/digital- typhoon/reference/besttrack.html.en). The storm tracks and intensities were then obtained from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) (https://metoc.ndbc.noaa.gov/en/JTWC/). Three storm categories were used following the JTWC: Tropical Depression, winds ≤ 33 kts; Tropical Storm, winds 34-63 kts; Typhoon ≥64kts. All track data was from the JTWC archives. Tracks were plotted on Google Earth and the nearest distance to land or reef, and bearing from Palau, were measured; maximum sustained wind speed in knots (nautical miles/hr) at that point was recorded. Typhoon names were taken from the Digital Typhoon site, but typhoon numbers for the same typhoon were from the JTWC archives.

  • Hunter-Anderson 2000
    Micronesica 33(1/2) 12/10/00 2:01 PM Page 11 Micronesica 33(1/2):11-44, 2000 Ethnographic and Archaeological Investigations in the Southwest Islands of Palau ROSALIND L. HUNTER-ANDERSON Micronesian Archaeological Research Services P.O. Box 22303 GMF, Guam 96921 U.S.A. Abstract—Ethnographic and archaeological field work was conducted in 1992 at Tobi, Merir, Pulo Anna, Sonsorol, and Fana. At Tobi, docu- mentation included profiling a wave-cut exposure of a ritual area mound near the landing on the western side of the island and retrieving a soil sample from the base of the mound for radiocarbon dating; locating and describing seventeen earth-oven refuse mounds and excavating a shovel trench into one of them, from which a charcoal sample was retrieved for radiocarbon dating; photographing artifacts observed on the ground sur- face and in private collections; recording information on traditional resource use at Tobi and nearby Helen Reef; and interviewing older Tobians living in Koror regarding traditional practices. A paleosediment core was taken at an inland taro patch. At Merir, the surface features on the large residential mound near the landing on the west side of the island were sketched in plan and information recorded about the mound’s former uses; a shovel trench was excavated into the south flank of the mound, and a paleosediment core was taken at a small taro patch inland of the mound. Artifacts from the surface at the beach were photographed. At Pulo Anna, a shovel trench was excavated into a residential mound and charcoal samples col- lected for radiocarbon dating and a paleosediment core was taken at the margin of the large inland salt water pond.

    Helen Reef 2008: an Overview by Patrick L. Colin, Lori J. Bell and Sharon Patris Coral Reef Research Foundation P.O.

Technical Report, Coral Reef Research Foundation, 31pp. www.coralreefpalau.org CORAL REEF RESEARCH FOUNDATION Report to Helen Reef Project SW Islands Collecting Trip, Sept 2008 INTRODUCTION In September 2008 the Coral Reef Research Foundation (CRRF) participated in a 3 week trip to Sonsorol and Hatohobei States for the purpose of marine invertebrate collections for the US National Cancer Institute (NCI). In addition to the NCI collections we were able to make a considerable number of general observations about marine conditions as well as gather a variety of data on tides, currents and temperatures at Helen Reef. The trip was a shared charter aboard the live-aboard dive boat Pacific Explorer II, in conjunction with fish biologists Rick Winterbottom (Royal Ontario Museum, Canada) and Mark Westneat (Field Museum, Chicago), from 10 – 29 September 2008. This report is intended to summarize the observations and collections made by CRRF. Two previous small collections were made in the Southwest Islands by CRRF, July 1995 to Sonsorol State, and December 1996 to Hatohobei State. Some of those results are summarized here for continuity in data. The Southwest Islands of Palau represent an area which is intermediate between the ultra diverse "Coral Triangle" (Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Solomon Islands, Philippines) and the less (but still very high) diverse Micronesian islands.

In some sense, they are outer islands of Palau, dependend upon the Republic politically and economically. But culturally and linguistically, they have very little in common with the rest of the Palauan archipelago. What separates them from Palau is first and foremost the great blue ocean: the island group of Sonsorol, Fanna, Merir and Pula Anna is located approximately 300 km away from Koror, Palau, and Hatohobei is at a distance of 484.1 kilometers. But equally important is that the Hatohobeians and Sonsorolese have a distinct cultural identity and linguistic heritage, closely related to that of the Carolinian islands, which include Woleaian, Ulithian, Saipan Carolinian and Chuukic.

  • Saipan Carolinian, One Chuukic Language Blended from Many (PDF)
    SAIPAN CAROLINIAN, ONE CHUUKIC LANGUAGE BLENDED FROM MANY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN LINGUISTICS DECEMBER 2012 BY S. JAMES ELLIS Dissertation Committee: Kenneth L. Rehg, Chairperson Byron W. Bender William D. O‘Grady Yuko Otsuka David L. Hanlon Keywords: Saipan Carolinian, Blended Language, Chuukic, dialect chain, Carolinian language continuum, Language Bending, Micronesia i © Copyright 2012 by S. James Ellis ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS No section of this extensive study is more difficult than this one. There is such a great number of Carolinians, many no longer with us, and many other friends who have had an important part of my life and this work. And yet, in view of the typical rush to submit this just under the wire, many of you will be unintentionally missed. I can only apologize to those of you whose names I fail to list here, and I can only promise that when this dissertation is properly published, in due time, I will include you and recognize your valuable contribution. Those that come to mind, however, as of this writing, are Jesus Elameto and his wife, Vicky, who were the first Carolinians I met, and who made me an always-welcome member of the family, and cheerfully assisted and supported every aspect of my work through all these years. During those early days of intelligibility-testing research in the late 80s I also want to mention the role of Project Beam and the Jesuit community and the string of contacts made possible through our common interest in maintaining Carolinian languages.

  • Palauan English As a Newly Emerging Postcolonial Variety in the Pacifi C*
    Palauan English as a newly emerging postcolonial variety in the Pacifi c* Kazuko Matsumoto・David Britain 1. Introduction The Republic of Palau/Beluu ęr a Belau is an independent nation state of the Western Pacifi c, consisting of an archipelago of around 350 small islands stretched across 400 miles of ocean. Its nearest neighbours are Indonesia and Papua New Guinea to the south, the Federated States of Micronesia to the east, Guam and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands to the northeast, and the Philippines to the west. The islands have a population of around 20,000, of which over 60% live in the largest city and former capital of Koror in 2005 (Offi ce of Planing and Statistics 2006: 23). The capital, in 2006, was moved to Ngerulmud, in Melekeok State on the main island of Babeldaob. For most of the 20th century, Palau was under colonial administration: by Spain (1885–1899), Germany (1899–1914), Japan (1914–1945), and fi nally, the United States of America (1945–1994). It formally gained its independence in 1994. This article examines the emergence of an Anglophone speech community in Palau, and aims to do three things: firstly to set the emergence of Palauan English into the context of the country’s complex colonial past. Palau’s four colonial rulers have exercised control in different ways, with different degrees of settler migration, different attitudes towards the function of Palau as a ‘colony’, and widely differing local policies, leading to very different linguistic outcomes in each case. The article focusses, however, on the American era and the path to Palauan independence.
