The A ' a Village Site , designated AS-34-33 by archaeologists , is an abandoned village site on the island of Tutuila in American Samoa . Located on a bay ( nearly inaccessible by land ) on the northwest coast of the island , the site was first surveyed by professional archaeologists in 1985 . The site has four distinct areas , in which features interpreted as house foundations have been located , as have rock walls , grave sites , and platform mounds . The site was not known to be occupied within the living memory of nearby residents , and the size of trees in the site suggests it has been abandoned since the 1860s . The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987 .

A monument erected by the French can be found in Aasutuai ( old A'asu ) . The village of A'asu along with A'oloau are jointly called ' O Leasina .
Afao is a village in southwest Tutuila Island , American Samoa . It is located on the island 's short southwestern coast , between 'Amanave and Leone , to the southwest of Pago Pago . It includes the settlement of Atauloma . Afao is home to two places listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places : Afao Beach Site and Atauloma Girls School . In 1899 , the London Missionary Society ( LMS ) started to raise funds to construct a girls school at Atauloma , and after $ 10,000 had been collected , Commandant Benjamin Franklin Tilley was invited to lay the cornerstone of its concrete structure . The girls ' school was constructed in 1900 as the second secondary school on Tutuila Island , and the first school on the island to accept female students . It was established by the LMS and provided graduates to the nursing school at the naval station in Pago Pago . The school is located at the western edge of Afao , in Atauloma . The school was completed in 1900 and set on a 70-by-116-foot ( 21 by 35 m ) concrete slab , facing towards the ocean . The second floor and peaked roof were made of California fir and redwood . The large spacious rooms on the first floor have 14-foot ( 4.3 m ) ceilings . [ citation needed ]
The Atauloma Girls School is a historic parochial school building in Afao village on the island of Tutuila in American Samoa . The London Missionary Society opened it in 1900 as the second secondary school on Tutuila ( after the Fagalele Boys School ) , and the first to admit girls . For most of its history it prepared girls primarily to be pastors ' wives , and after 1913 provided graduates to the nursing school at the naval station at Pago Pago . Its establishment saved Tutuila girls the necessity of travel to Upolu for secondary school , which separated them from their families and exposed them to the dangers of the international port at Apia . Atauloma was abandoned by 1970 . The school was listed on the United States National Register of Historic Places in 1972 . It was featured on the television program Ghost Hunters International in its third-season episode Ghoul 's School in 2012 .

Its large church was the first to be built in American Samoa . It has three towers , a carved ceiling and stained glass . Until steamships were invented , Leone was the preferred anchorage of sailing ships which did not risk entering Pago Pago Harbor . Much early contact between Samoans and Europeans took place in Leone .

Buses from Fagatogo to Leone leave every few minutes throughout the year . An airstrip was built at Leone during World War II . The village is home to two historical sites listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places : Fagalele Boys School , which may be the oldest building on Tutuila Island , and Tataga-Matau Fortified Quarry Complex .
The Fagatele Bay Site is an archaeological site on the shore of Fagatele Bay on the south side of Tutuila , the main island of the United States territory of American Samoa . The site shows evidence of habitation from prehistoric to historic times , and is well preserved in part because of the relative difficulty of land access to the area . It has ten distinct features , including raised platforms , stone walls , and a stone-line path . In one feature , interpreted as a house site , a complete prehistoric-era adze was found . When surveyed in 1985 , these features could not be chronologically organized or correlated . The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 .

The Maloata Village Site is a prehistoric village site on the northwestern coast of the island of Tutuila in the United States territory of American Samoa . The archaeologically sensitive site includes a variety of stone features , principally stone fences and retaining walls , with evidence from excavation of human habitation . Radiocarbon dating from one of its test pits yielded a date range of CE 550-1000 , identifying the site as one of the oldest known on the island . According to oral tradition , the Maloata area was reserved for use by relatively high-status chieftains . The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 .
The Poloa Defensive Fortifications are a set of historic military structures on the island of Tutuila in American Samoa . Consisting of three concrete pillboxes along the beach , these fortifications were built by American Marines as part of a system of defenses against a feared Japanese amphibious invasion of Samoa during the early part of World War II . The Poloa pillboxes stand out from other emplacements on Tutuila for their relatively less robust construction , possibly reflecting American tactical planning for greater defense in depth at this location . The threat of invasion eased by late 1942 , and the fortifications never saw combat . The Poloa fortifications were added to the United States National Register of Historic Places in 2012 .

Site As-31-72 is a prehistoric archaeological site on the island of Tutuila in the United States territory of American Samoa . Located on the Tafuna Plain , an inland area on the western half of the island , its principal feature is a long stone wall , 300 metres ( 980 ft ) long with a maximum height of 5.4 metres ( 18 ft ) . Set on sloping ground , the top of the wall is roughly level , and is only 2.8 metres ( 9.2 ft ) high at the upper end of the slope . Platforms and other features have been identified during archaeological examination of the structure and its surroundings in the 1990s . Its purpose is unknown ; the researchers conjecture it was built because of warfare . The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997 .

The Tataga-Matau Fortified Quarry Complex , designated Site AS-34-10 , is a major archaeological complex on Tutuila , the largest island of American Samoa . Located in an upland area on the western side of the island above the village of Leone , the complex consists of a series of basalt quarries and structures that archaeologists have interpreted as having a military defensive purpose . The site has been known since at least 1927 , and was first formally surveyed in the 1960s . Features of the site include extraction pits , from which basalt was quarried for the manufacture of stone tools and weapons , as well as domestic features such as grinding stones . Archaeologists in 1985 noted that some of the sites features were , including trenches and terracing , were made in areas that were unsuitable for the production of stone tools , and closely resemble known military defensive structures in other areas of the Samoan islands . The site extends along a network of ridges for more than 1.4 kilometres ( 0.87 mi ) . Radiocarbon dating of elements of site indicate periods of occupation and/or use from c. 200 CE to the period of European contact . The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987 .
The Tupapa Site is an archaeological site in the uplands of western Tutuila , the largest island of American Samoa .
