TMK: (3)7-3-024:008 Report No . 1760 - 041822 and subsequently became part of Huehue Ranch (Cordy et al. 1991). Kelly (1971) describes the succession of caretakers of the Kaloko fishpond from the early 1900s until the early 1960s when the pond fell into disrepair. Figure 5 is a portion of J.S. Emerson's 1800s Register Map 1280 of Kailua Town and vicinity obtained from the Archives Division of the Hawai'i Department of Accounting and General Services (DAGS; http://ags.hawaii.gov/survey/map-search).The map shows the seaward boundary of the inland forest was at approximately 600 ft elevation, well seaward of the current project area. This map also indicates that Kaloko was awarded to Lot Kamehameha as LCA 7715,and that the Kaloko Catholic Church is situated below the upper government road Figure 6 is a portion of the 1928 USGS Kailua Quadrangle map obtained from the University of Hawai'i at Manoa online library (http://magis.manoa.hawaii.edu). This map shows several houses present on the inland and seaward sides of the upper government road,and the Holualoa-Puuwaawaa Pipeline extending through Kaloko inland of the project area. No development is present in the vicinity of the current project area. Figure 7 is a portion of the 1954 USGS Kailua Quadrangle map also obtained from the University of Hawai'i at Manoa online library. The map shows that several roads had been constructed off the Mamalahoa Highway (former upper government Road) and that a jeep road was constructed in the vicinity of the current project area. Eleven houses are depicted adjacent to the highway or minor roads in upper Kaloko. Figure 8 is an aerial view of the project area vicinity taken on March 27, 1977 by the U.S.Geological Survey and (http://magis.manoa.hawaii.edu).This image shows that Kaloko Drive and Hao Streets that border the project area had been constructed by this time,and that large portions of Kaloko inland of the highway had been cleared. This photograph shows several probable bulldozer swaths through the project area, with other obvious signs of development. The project area lies within the inland portion of the 'apa'a zone of the Kona Field System (KFS), SIHP Site 6601(Newman 1970,Kelly 1983,Schilt 1984,Cordy 1995).The field system extends north to Ka'u Ahupua'a, south to H6naunau, and from the coastline to the forested slopes of Hualalai. The area was intensively cultivated and served as the resource base for the large number of chiefs and retainers that occupied the Kailua-Keauhou coast. The characteristics and general locations of the elevation zones of the system described by Newman (1970) have been confirmed and elaborated on by subsequent ethnohistorical investigations(Kelly 1983).The system is subdivided into four elevation zones. The kula zone extends from sea level to 500 ft elevation. Cordy (1995) has suggested that the upper limit of this zone may be higher between 600-700 ft elevation.This lower elevation zone traditionally was used for habitation and cultivation of sweet potatoes,paper mulberry(wauke),and gourds. Agricultural features, including clearing mounds, planting mounds, planting depressions, modified outcrops, and planting terraces, are common in this zone (Hammatt and Clark 1980; Hammatt and Folk 1980; Schilt 1984). Habitations are scattered throughout the kula, but they are concentrated along the shoreline portion of the zone(Cordy 1995).The shoreline portion, extending approximately 200 m inland, was the focus of permanent habitation and activities such as burial, canoe storage, ritual, and marine exploitation. Royal centers and chiefly residences were also situated near the shoreline.These complexes included residences for high status individuals and their supporters and attendants,heiau,places of refuge, holua slides,and other structures. The kalu'ulu zone extends from 500 to 1000 ft elevation.The zone was used for cultivating sweet potatoes, paper mulberry,and especially breadfruit.Archaeologically,this zone is not distinguishable from the HAUN &ASSOCIATES 1 8
