That is Hawaiian for "the group that maps the placement of stones". And that is who we are. We went on 9 field trips to the Kahalu'u area on the Kona coast of the Big Island of Hawaii and, together with Hawaiian Studies students and a local archaeologist, Keone Kalawe, we used plane tables to map the ruins of several Hawaiian structures. We did this as this first step in the eventual restoration of these structures. We feel that this is extremely important work and we would like to share some of our experiences and insights with you. Mahalo.
