dcterms.abstract | This report examines the natural and cultural resources of Waialeʻe, Oʻahu, asking 1) How can the natural and cultural resources of this place be understood through a contemporary Kānaka ʻŌiwi perspective? 2) What are the customary Kānaka ʻŌiwi resource management systems? And 3) How might these customary resource management systems be restored? To address these questions, I utilized archival search, literature review, field methods, social approaches, and geospatial analysis. Key outputs include a comprehensive desrcption of traditional place names and folklore of the district; a characterization of mid-19th century land use practices in the ahupuaʻa, and a preliminary deliniation of Kalou Marsh. These findings stand to affect the future management of Waialeʻe, which is currently being negotiated. Further, they may inform future approaches to place-based and culturallygrounded research in Hawaiʻi. | |
