description: ln the spring of 1975, archaeological research was conducted by the University of Hawaii, Department of Anthropology, along the sides of Waimānalo Stream inland of the National Register boundary. Survey and excavations revealed extensive material representing an occupation of around A. D. 1000 and earlier. Excavations within the Bellows Archaeological Zone hove resulted in the discovery of additional cultural deposits which enhance the importance of 0-18. It is suggested that the Bellows Archaeological Zone be extended to include the area defined in the present report. The Bellows Zone and areas of Waimānalo inland represent a major archaeological resource for knowledge of very early Hawaiian occupation.
