Combining archaeology and social anthropology this historical and archaeological two volume set constructs an integrated history of the Anahulu Valley in northwestern O'ahu that traces the cultural transformation in a typical local center of the Hawaiian Kingdom founded by Kamehame. Volume one is a historical ethnography and volume two is an archaeology of history.
The story of Ni‘ihau has been told many times by many people, but Ni‘ihau Place Names adds new information to the island’s history from a unique source: Hawaiian-language newspapers. From 1834 to 1948, approximately 125,000 pages of Native Hawaiian expression were printed in more than 100 different newspapers. John R. K. Clark has gathered and edited a large collection of invaluable articles that recorded daily life on Niʻihau, events and topics of interest, and the island’s place names. Additionally, Keao NeSmith, a Native Hawaiian of Kaua‘i and an applied linguist, translator, and researcher fluent in ‘ōlelo Hawai‘i, translated each passage into English. Most of these excer...
This archive of endangered narratives and songs from the island of Atauro (Timor-Leste) was gathered between 2014 and 2023 against a backdrop of a changing world. The oral traditions of Atauro’s three groups (Manroni, Humangili, Adadi) come together for the first time in this multilingual edition combining the local languages of Dadu’a, Rasua, Hresuk, Raklungu and Tetun with English translations. The large original corpus recounts the origin of Atauro Island, revealed when arrows pierce the sea, and many other tales as well as traditional song lyrics. These are complemented by 20 texts on aspects of local culture written by researchers from different disciplines (archaeology, ethno-botany, geography, anthropology, ethnomusicology, and eco-anthropology). The book’s originality lies in the cross-cultural and cross-sectoral collaboration between French and Timorese researchers and the populations who determined and validated the choice of texts all supported by native interpreters from each linguistic group.

For many years, Hawaiian Dictionary has been the definitive and authoritative work on the Hawaiian language. Now this indispensable reference volume has been enlarged and completely revised. More than 3,000 new entries have been added to the Hawaiian-English section, bringing the total number of entries to almost 30,000 and making it the largest and most complete of any Polynesian dictionary. Other additions and changes in this section include: a method of showing stress groups to facilitate pronunciation of Hawaiian words with more than three syllables; indications of parts of speech; current scientific names of plants; use of metric measurements; additional reconstructions; classical origins of loan words; and many added cross-references to enhance understanding of the numerous nuances of Hawaiian words. The English Hawaiian section, a complement and supplement to the Hawaiian English section, contains more than 12,500 entries and can serve as an index to hidden riches in the Hawaiian language. This new edition is more than a dictionary. Containing folklore, poetry, and ethnology, it will benefit Hawaiian studies for years to come.
