This grant provides partial support for a conference on                         Micronesian archaeology which will take place at the University                 of Guam in September 1987.  Approximately 50 non-local scholars                 will participate and the audience will include an equal number                  of individuals attending the Indo-Pacific Prehistory Association                Congress which will be held in conjunction with this conference.                The major objective of the conference is to bring together for                  the first time a diverse group of researchers who have conducted                archaeological fieldwork in Micronesia during the past 10-15                    years.  Seven sessions are planned: five cover theoretical and                  methodological topics.  One will present new findings in                        Micronesian physical anthropology and one will address historic                 preservation issues.  A number of community-oriented                            presentations and events such as public lectures will also take                 place.                                                                                                                                                          While synthetic work has been done in other areas of the Pacific,               in the Micronesian region such an overview is lacking.                          Excavations have been conducted on a project by project basis                   and many of the results remain unpublished.  Because researchers                come from different continents, face to face interaction is                     rare.  this conference will allow excavators to present results                 from Their work and hopefuly lay the basis for a broad synthetic                overview.                                                                                                                                                       Much of the Micronesian archaeology has been supported by U.S.                  government agencies.  Such site by site work only gains its full                value when fit together into a broader context.  This confernence               will help to accomplish this goal.
