| Research Abstract |
Apart from reference works of the 1521 Ferdinand Magellan expedition and limited resources provided by Spanish navigation crews and missionary priests thereafter, there is a significant absence of ethnographic literature pertaining to the prehistory of the Mariana Islands in Micronesia. Having survived largely unscathed the affects of World War II and consequent land development efforts, the prehistoric Haputo village site, located in the northwestern coast of Guam Island, remains as an invaluable archaeological source. Spatial analysis conducted in this archaeological research project provides evidence in achieving a better understanding of Chamorro prehistoric life patterns and village structures.
