ecology Pre-contact Hawaiian settlement patterns and land use; archaeological context for Lahaina's cultural landscape
Alongside Beamer’s No Makou Ka Mana, Kirch provides pre-contact settlement context. Kirch’s work on irrigated agriculture and coastal aquaculture systems (pages 189-212) provides the archaeological framework for understanding the ahupua’a land division system and the resource networks that sustained pre-contact Hawaiian population at Lahaina.
