With those full-figured hips features delivered through natural birth for generations and with those powerful arms reaching for the past calling on our mañaina you have remained strong throughout the years continuously inspire me to live my culture allow me to grow into a young Chamoru woman myself. Through you I have witnessed the persistence and endurance of my ancestors who never failed in constructing a latte. I gima` taotao mo`na the house of the ancient people. Hågu i acho` latte-ku. You are my latte stone. The latte stone (acho` latte) was once the foundation of Chamoru homes in the Mariana Islands. It was carved out of limestone or basalt and varied in size, measuring between three and sixteen feet in height. It contained two parts, the tasa (a cup-like shape, the top portion of the latte) and the haligi (the bottom pillar) and were organized into two rows, with three to seven latte stones per row. Today, several latte stones still stand, and there are also many remnants of them throughout the Marianas. Though Chamorus no longer use latte stones as the foundations of their homes, the latte symbolize the strength of the Chamorus and their culture as well as their resiliency in times of change.

Guam Museum Permanent Exhibition Overview History of the Guam Museum The Guam Museum, officially called the Senator Antonio M. Palomo Guam and CHamoru Educational Facility, is the first structure built for the sole purpose of housing and displaying Guam’s precious historic treasures. The Guam Museum reflects the diversity, creativity, and resilience of the people of Guam and the Mariana Islands. The permanent exhibition is the story of the CHamoru people, told from a CHamoru perspective. It is hoped to encourage people to engage in dialogue, to share perspectives and experiences and debate issues that concern us all today. I Hale’ta: Mona yan Tatte: 90 Years in the Making The earliest printed record of people making plans for a new museum dates back to 1926. The Guam Teachers Association, led by Ramon M. Sablan, a teacher best known as the author of the “Guam Hymn,” asked residents and friends of Guam to start collecting their antiques and other artifacts for a museum that would protect their history and CHamoru culture. The editor of the Guam Recorder, one of the earliest publications printed and circulated on Guam, also called for the opening of a museum.

  • An Overview of Latte Period Archaeology
    Micronesica 42(1/2): 1–79, 2012 An overview of latte period archaeology MIKE T. CARSON Micronesian Area Research Center, University of Guam, Mangilao, GU 96923 USA Abstract—Studies of megalithic ruins called latte and other related material traces potentially offer insights into an associated latte period, approximately A.D. 900 through 1700, quite distinctive from preceding cultural periods that began as early at 1500 B.C. in the Mariana Islands. Vastly more is known of this latte period than any other in Marianas regional archaeology, yet numerous basic questions continue to be considered and debated. The present work aims to summarize current data and thinking about latte research. Introduction The theme “archaeological studies of the latte period” was chosen for this volume of Micronesica to embrace the plentiful ways archaeologists and others conceptualize these megalithic ruins and their significance toward indigenous cultural history and heritage in the Mariana Islands (Figure 1). Today, latte stones vibrantly symbolize native Chamorro cultural identity (Figure 2), and they embody a material link to an ancestral society prior to the last few centuries of foreign colonial rule and evolving globalized context of the Chamorro people. During the last several decades of archaeological study, latte sites and their multiple associations have proven to be quite complex, deserving equally complex modes of study. Interpretive models are even more complicated in attempts to comprehend or explain the functions of latte stones and the evolution of native Chamorro society associated with these ancient sites. In common usage, the word latte refers to sets of megalithic pillars (haligi) and “caps” or capitals (tasa) that at one time presumably supported wooden superstructures (Figure 3).

  • Latte Villages in Guam and the Marianas: Monumentality Or Monumenterity?
    Micronesica 42(1/2): 183–208, 2012 Latte villages in Guam and the Marianas: Monumentality or monumenterity? JOHN A. PETERSON Micronesian Area Research Center, University of Guam, Mangilao, GU 96923 USA Abstract—The functions of latte structures in Guam and the Marianas have been treated in two significant perspectives that deserve examination relative to their monumental character. The classic ethnographic and ethnohistoric perspective interpreted latte structures as part of village complexes with both residential and communal functions. Materialistic interpretations have characterized latte structures as chiefly houses with size possibly denoting relative power or rank among villagers and villages in the Marianas. However, examination of paleoenvironmental data, recent migration models depicting dispersal of matrilineal clans from the eastern Caroline Islands westward throughout what is now Micronesia, along with data from site surveys, excavations, and linguistic and ethnographic sources demonstrate that latte period settlement and architecture of the second millennium A.D. shares architectural styles, material culture, and lifeways with Micronesian islands to the east in what may have been a second and diffuse migrational movement through the region. In this model latte architecture expresses shared inter-village identities and mechanisms for conflict resolution rather than competition, warfare, and socio-economic ranking. Introduction “Classified according to length of ground-plan, there are three types of latte, namely, small, medium, and large…furthermore, increase in size is achieved in length and height only, while the width is constant, a characteristic of Oceanian house types in which the width of the building is limited by the length of the wooden cross- beams”(Thompson 1940: 448,458).
