The Ninth International Conference on Austronesian Linguistics and the Fifth International Conference on Oceanic Linguistics were both held at The Australian National University in Canberra during Januar, 2002.

This volume represents such a compilation, and contains ten papers in the area of Austronesian historical phonology.
