  • Micronesica 38(1):93–120, 2005
    Micronesica 38(1):93–120, 2005 Archaeological Evidence of a Prehistoric Farming Technique on Guam DARLENE R. MOORE Micronesian Archaeological Research Services P.O. Box 22303, GMF, Guam, 96921 Abstract—On Guam, few archaeological sites with possible agricultural features have been described and little is known about prehistoric culti- vation practices. New information about possible upland planting techniques during the Latte Phase (c. A.D. 1000–1521) of Guam’s Prehistoric Period, which began c. 3,500 years ago, is presented here. Site M201, located in the Manenggon Hills area of Guam’s interior, con- tained three pit features, two that yielded large pieces of coconut shell, bits of introduced calcareous rock, and several large thorns from the roots of yam (Dioscorea) plants. A sample of the coconut shell recovered from one of the pits yielded a calibrated (2 sigma) radiocarbon date with a range of A.D. 986–1210, indicating that the pits were dug during the early Latte Phase. Archaeological evidence and historic literature relat- ing to planting, harvesting, and cooking of roots and tubers on Guam suggest that some of the planting methods used in historic to recent times had been used at Site M201 near the beginning of the Latte Phase, about 1000 years ago. I argue that Site M201 was situated within an inland root/tuber agricultural zone. Introduction The completion of numerous archaeological projects on Guam in recent years has greatly increased our knowledge of the number and types of prehis- toric sites, yet few of these can be considered agricultural. Descriptions of agricultural terraces, planting pits, irrigation canals, or other agricultural earth works are generally absent from archaeological site reports, although it has been proposed that some of the piled rock alignments in northern Guam could be field boundaries (Liston 1996).

  • Revised Recovery Plan for the Sihek Or Guam Micronesian Kingfisher (Halcyon Cinnamomina Cinnamomina)
    DISCLAIMER Recovery plans delineate actions which the best available science indicates are required to recover and protect listed species. Plans are published by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and sometimes prepared with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and others. Recovery teams serve as independent advisors to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Recovery plans are reviewed by the public and submitted to additional peer review before they are approved and adopted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Nothing in this plan should be construed as a commitment or requirement that any Federal agency obligate or pay funds in contravention of the Anti-Deficiency Act, 31 USC 1341, or any other law or regulation. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views nor the official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Recovery plans represent the official position of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service only after they have been signed as approved by the Regional Director or Director. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery actions. Please check for updates or revisions at the website addresses provided below before using this plan. Literature citation of this document should read as follows: U.S.

T Contents of this publication do not necessarily reflect the views and policies of the Office of Water Research and Technology, U. S.

Such customs were analyzed in both their past and present contexts, and are documented to provide possible insights into more effective systems of acquiring and maintain- ing a sufficient supply of freshwater on Guam.

See Section 4.1.1.1 for a 5 description of the climate on Guam. 6 4.3.1.2 Geology and Topography 7 The NMS is in the southern structural province of Guam (see Figure 4-1). The western boundary of this 8 site coincides with a range of low mountains orientated on a north-to-south axis. This range includes 9 Mount Alifan; Mount Almagosa; Mount Lamlam, which attains a height of 1,334 feet (407 meters) above 10 msl; and Mount Humuyong (see Figure 4-2). This range lies on the Bolanos structural block, which 11 consists of rock from the Miocene-aged Umatac Formation. The Umatac Formation is composed of 12 east-dipping (5–10 degrees) volcanic rocks, including flow basalts (Dandan Member) and tuff breccia or 13 tuff-derived conglomerate, sandstone, and shale (Bolanos Member). The tuff is consolidated volcanic ash 14 that was marine-deposited and uplifted. Breccia refers to the angular fragments of the conglomerate. 15 Portions of the range have alternated between periods of submergence and emergence as evidenced by the 16 presence of the Alifan Limestone (U.S. Navy 2009). 17 4.3.1.3 Seismology 18 The Talofofo Fault Zone crosses the NMS in a northwest-southeast direction (GHS 2008).

  • 13. Visual Resources
    Guam and CNMI Military Relocation Draft EIS/OEIS (November 2009) CHAPTER 13. VISUAL RESOURCES This section describes the applicable existing visual conditions and resources on Guam by geographical area. While the focus is on the visual resources on those lands being considered under the proposed action, it also includes areas within the general region of influence. Figure 13.1-1 shows where all of the various areas and scenic points of interest are throughout Guam and described in this section. Visual resources include scenic areas, vistas or thoroughfares and locations that provide natural-appearing or aesthetically-pleasing places or views. This includes natural views such as shorelines, seascapes, cliffs and man-made views such as unique buildings, landscaping, parks, and other types of cultural features. Typically, visual resource descriptions focus on those that are recognized as highly valued. For instance, they may be specific places, vistas, and scenic overlooks identified by a visitor‘s association. However, visual resources are also recognized as views and vistas that people are accustomed to seeing and often take for granted as a general part of the landscape. Visual resources are an important part of the quality and sensory experience of an area. Users often encounter an area first and foremost through a visual interaction or their ‗view‘ of a place. Views are generally composed of, and often described in terms of foreground, middle-ground and background depending on the site. For analysis purposes, visual resources are composed of the following: Dominant landscape features (e.g., a tall water tower in a landscape otherwise composed of low vegetation and one or two story buildings) Diversity (e.g., rows of crops adjacent to an urban area with the mountains as a backdrop) Elements of line, color, form, and texture Distinctive visual edges (e.g., a housing tract adjacent to a forested area).
