This publication is based on new fieldwork carried out on the island of Huahine, French Polynesia, in the years 2001- 2004. The aim of the project was to establish a chronological framework of the marae structures mainly on the island of Huahine in the Leeward Society Islands. However dating was also conducted on earlier collected charcoal from excavated marae structures on the Windward Islands. Other questions addressed were how the marae structures were located in the landscape, as well as aspects of their extended uses and modern changes.
