Abstract

This paper describes previously unreported archaeological work on Ponui Island, New Zealand. Coastal sites date from the end of the fourteenth century AD, and one, S11/20, has evidence for surface structures, cooking, and tool manufacture and use. The harvesting of marine resources and horticulture were involved from the beginning. Earthwork defenses were built at 23 sites between AD 1500 and 1800. At least six of these fortified sites (pa) were later refortified and some were residential. In this study two sites were excavated at Motunau Bay: one was S11/20, an Archaic site previously excavated in the 1950s, and the other was S11/21, a fortified site. Radiocarbon dates are reported from five further undefended coastal sites and from the earthwork defences of 19 pa, which reveal chronological and spatial trends in their construction. On Ponui the archaeological signature of the fifteenth century was what New Zealand archaeologists typically call early or Archaic, but in the sixteenth century it became Classic. The transition in the settlement evidence appears abrupt; however, the tempo of change more likely varied in material culture and the economy, and possible changes in land tenure and social organisation are suggested.
内豪拉基湾Pōnui岛上Māori定居点和pā考古,公元1400-1800年
这篇论文描述了以前未报道过的在新西兰波努伊岛的考古工作。沿海遗址可以追溯到公元14世纪末,其中一个,S11/20,有地表结构、烹饪和工具制造和使用的证据。从一开始就涉及到海洋资源的收获和园艺。在公元1500年到1800年之间,在23个地点建造了土方防御工事。这些设防地点(pa)中至少有6个后来重新设防,其中一些是住宅区。在本研究中,在Motunau湾挖掘了两个遗址:一个是S11/20,一个早在20世纪50年代挖掘的古老遗址,另一个是S11/21,一个防御遗址。从另外五个未设防的沿海遗址和19 pa的土方防御工事中报告了放射性碳年代,揭示了其建设的时间和空间趋势。在波努伊岛上,15世纪的考古标志是新西兰考古学家通常所说的早期或古代,但在16世纪,它变成了古典。聚落证据的转变显得突兀;然而,变化的速度更有可能在物质文化和经济方面有所不同,并建议在土地所有权和社会组织方面可能发生变化。
