In this innovative book, Kirch and Green explicitly develop the theoretical underpinnings, as well as the particular methods, for such a historical anthropology. Drawing upon and integrating the approaches of archaeology, comparative ethnography, and historical linguistics, they advance a phylogenetic model for cultural diversification, and apply a triangulation method for historical reconstruction. They illustrate their approach through meticulous application to the history of the Polynesian cultures, and for the first time reconstruct in extensive detail the Ancestral Polynesian culture that flourished in the Polynesian homeland - Hawaiki - some 2,500 years ago. Of great significance for Oceanic studies, Kirch and Green's book will be essential reading for any anthropologist, prehistorian, linguist, or cultural historian concerned with the theory and method of long-term history. 606 $aEthnology$zHawaii 606 $aEthnology$zPolynesia 606 $aHawaiians$xSocial life and customs 606 $aPolynesians$xSocial life and customs 607 $aHawaii$xAntiquities 607 $aPolynesia$xAntiquities 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aHawaiians$xSocial life and customs. 615 0$aPolynesians$xSocial life and customs. 676 $a996.9/0009/014 700 $aKirch$b Patrick Vinton$0678780 702 $aGreen$b Roger Curtis 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910450373503321 996 $aHawaiki, ancestral Polynesia$92467008 997 $aUNINA
