The Petroglyphs of Kaho’olawe Island, Hawai’i

UPDATE: Ten years have passed since this paper was written (1994). Since then Federal funds were secured to continue the restoration of the Island from the dev-astation wrought upon it from its use as a bombing target by the U.S. Navy. When enough unexploded ordnance was cleared, an inventory level archaeological sur-vey was done; only a few additional petroglyphs were located. Many more rock art sites have been recorded in Hawaii since 1994, and the broad picture of Hawaiian rock art has changed, requiring some additions and modifications to the original manuscript by the authors. The reports on the Kaho’olawe archaeological survey and the newfound petroglyphs are not available at this time; hence, the changes in the manuscript do not reflect this forthcoming data but are based on the informa-tion obtained from reports on twenty Hawaiian rock art sites recorded since 1994 and data from approximately sixty others.
