Tracking shifts in Society Islands marine subsistence through time: Intra‐site analysis of faunal remains and fishing gear

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 59, Issue 2, Page 198-218, July 2024.
Abstract We discuss new data from Colonization Phase and Early Expansion/Development Phase assemblages in the pre‐contact Society Islands. We focus on analysis of marine faunal remains and fishing gear to infer diachronic shifts in subsistence practices at two well‐dated coastal sites. Both Colonization Phase (AD 950–1200) and Early Expansion Phase (AD
