Abstract:
The peopling of Remote Oceanic islands by Austronesian speakers is a fascinating and yet contentious part of human prehistory. Linguistic, archaeological, and genetic studies have shown the complex nature of the process in which different components that helped to shape Lapita culture in Near Oceania each have their own unique history. Important evidence points to Taiwan as an Austronesian ancestral homeland with a more distant origin in South China, whereas alternative models favor South China to North Vietnam or a Southeast Asian origin. We test these propositions by studying phylogeography of paper mulberry, a common East Asian tree species introduced and clonally propagated since prehistoric times across the Pacific for making barkcloth, a practical and symbolic component of Austronesian cultures. Using the hypervariable chloroplast ndhF-rpl32 sequences of 604 samples collected from East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Oceanic islands (including 19 historical herbarium specimens from Near and Remote Oceania), 48 haplotypes are detected and haplotype cp-17 is predominant in both Near and Remote Oceania. Because cp-17 has an unambiguous Taiwanese origin and cp-17–carrying Oceanic paper mulberries are clonally propagated, our data concur with expectations of Taiwan as the Austronesian homeland, providing circumstantial support for the “out of Taiwan” hypothesis. Our data also provide insights into the dispersal of paper mulberry from South China “into North Taiwan,” the “out of South China–Indochina” expansion to New Guinea, and the geographic origins of post-European introductions of paper mulberry into Oceania.

Abstract:
This dissertation examines the little known cultural changes that occurred In Fiji during the 1500 years between the end of Lapita and the late prehistoric era - a period of time termed here the 'mid-sequence’. During this interval the relatively homogeneous proto Polynesian Lapita culture of Fiji developed a complex pattern of human variation which differentiated It from West Polynesia and linked Fiji with the greater cultural diversity found in Melanesia. This thesis charts, through in-depth analysis of ceramics gathered primarily from two field excavations (Navatu 17A and Ugaga Island) and one museum collection (Karobo VL H3/1),the Importance of Internal processes as drivers for Fiji's cultural development. While external contacts clearly did take place, the ceramic evidence Indicates it did not dominate mid- sequence events In Fiji. It suggests that social contact between communities within the archipelago was likely to have reached its low point earlier than previously thought-between 2300 and 1900 BP, or about 400 years after the demise of Lapita. It further finds that after a relatively short period of social Isolation, the mid-sequence was a time, largely, of dynamic regional networks - indicating that a cohesive archipelago-focused community was developing. Such regional networks were likely to have formed the basis of the complex and formal social structures of the late prehistoric period In Fiji, and of the Inter-archipelago networks that linked Fiji with Its Pacific neighbours. Finally, it suggests that the differentiation of Fiji from other archipelagoes began soon after the end of Lapita, and that the type of mid-sequence interaction in Fiji was closer to that reconstructed for the post-Lapita period of Tonga and Samoa than the kind of localised interaction found in Vanuatu and New Caledonia.

Abstract:
The Lapita pottery displaying dentate stamped decorations is at the core of our actual understanding of the human colonisation of Oceania about 3000 years ago. One of the ways to extract information about these past societies is by characterising the ceramic collections and examining the chemical compositions of the various vessels. This project examines the compositional similarities and dissimilarities of early pottery assemblages in Vanuatu. Connecting the technological styles with contextual cultural information, such as decorations or vessel forms, lead to a better understanding of the technological choices faced during pottery production. These decisions are taken following the culturally accepted rules embodied in the production process and consequently, this study allows a better understanding of significant parts of the socio-political and economic aspects of Lapita and post-Lapita societies. Results show that the vast majority of the Lapita and post-Lapita ceramic vessels analysed were produced locally. The homogeneity of the dentate-stamped decorations across Lapita sites reveals that ideas were transferred more than objects and that the ideological signification of these vessels was more important than their economic value. It is also evident from the results that the compositional variability observed in earlier Lapita ceramic collection is much more significant than what is observed from the more recent assemblages. This variability of technological styles for Lapita pots is generally seen as a consequence resulting from mobile settlement patterns. However, the important natural variability of the raw materials used to produce pottery demonstrates that this mobility is generally restricted to a relatively small-scale since not much movement or geographical distance would be required to produce compositional profiles corresponding to the results. From a political economy perspective, the significant variability of Lapita technological styles demonstrates that there wasn’t any apparent control or imposed limitations over access to the raw materials used to produce pottery and that there was no specialised production. It also suggests that a technological exploratory phase probably followed the arrival of Lapita potters on previously unoccupied islands with unfamiliar raw materials. The important decrease in varieties of technological styles between Lapita and immediately post-Lapita assemblages combined with the almost exclusive usage of local materials by post-Lapita potters support the idea that a general regionalisation process was occurring at the time when dentate stamped pottery stopped being produced. The almost systematic absence of decoration and the technological homogeneity in immediately post-Lapita ceramic collections are in such contrast with Lapita decorations and the fracture between both so clean that it should be seen as a strategy to differentiate the subsequent cultural production from the former Lapita political, economic and religious structures. Overall, the combined modification of both the decorative and technological style between Lapita and immediately post-Lapita indicates that some major social transformation occurred, as has been already suggested by others. In terms of methodological contribution, this study shows that LA-ICP-MS represents an excellent analytical technique to gather bulk compositional profiles of ceramic assemblages and that it represents a viable alternative to petrography.

Abstract:
The Pacific is a world of islands, so human migrations are necessarily part of the story of this world. It is somewhat surprising therefore to find that there are so many points of contention among archaeologists, linguists and biologists about the role that migrations have played in producing culture change in Pacific prehistory -just how many migrations are we talking about, on what scale, by whom, and when, and which discipline provides more reliable evidence? The specifics of the debate may be local, but the substantive issues have broader applicability. This thesis attempts to contribute to the debate by considering the archaeological evidence for a hypothesised migration during the post-Lapita period of people speaking non-Austronesian languages into the Main Reef and Santa Cruz Islands in the southeast Solomon Islands. It describes the theoretical and methodological difficulties in trying to assess whether cladistic or rhizotic processes best account for culture change. Previously unpublished archaeological material from two Main Reef Islands sites is presented, and is compared with the linguistic and human biological evidence pertinent to the case study. The narratives of cross-cultural encounters during the historic period are examined to investigate how such interactions produce change in cultural traditions, and to assess the archaeological visibility of these contacts. While the archaeological record testifies to cultural borrowings and lendings in the Reef-Santa Cruz case, the argument for either large-scale population intrusion or replacement is not well supported. The archaeological record appears to be in conflict with the prevailing interpretation of history reconstructed from historical linguistics and human genetics.

Abstract:
The focus of this thesis is the period of apparent cultural ‘transition’ or transformation in the archaeology of Island Melanesia in the closing centuries of the third millennium BP. This transformation has long been tied to an ill-defined and much debated ‘Incised and Applied Relief’ ceramic tradition, and in the western part of this region is seen as marking the ‘end’ of Lapita in the transition from the ‘Late Lapita’ to ‘Post-Lapita’ periods. I examine this ‘transition’ by taking a multi-pronged approach to the consideration of social interaction and exchange, in particular in terms of cultural continuities (‘evolutions’) and discontinuities (‘revolutions’) across it. Based on new research in the Tanga Islands and supplemented by the further examination of a group of sites on the New Ireland mainland, the thesis employs two broad types of data to track interaction—compositional and stylistic—which are gleaned from the analysis of pottery, obsidian and red ochre. Its aim is to tease out the complexities of interaction and cultural change at the ‘transition’ indicated by both the match and mismatch of the evidence from these different archaeological data sets. The thesis concludes that Tanga and other ‘transitional’ sites from the Bismarck Archipelago to New Caledonia were embedded in a number of different overlapping and interconnected interaction networks of different spatial and temporal scales and likely cultural significance. These networks reflected webs of relationships and aspects of shared identity and history on both more localised and broader regional levels, and incorporated elements of both stylistic similarityand difference, and cultural continuity and discontinuity with Lapita. It finds that there is indeed some utility to a considerably revised notion of the ‘Incised and Applied Relief Tradition’: one that is both more and less strictly defined.

Abstract:
New Guinea, inhabited for approximately 50,000 years, has been the focus of far less archaeological research compared to Australia and Polynesia, to the south and east, respectively. However, the archaeology of this island is significant to perennial archaeological topics including the development of agriculture and social complexity, the explanation and effects of human interaction, the archaeological relevance of paleoenvironmental research, and the intersection of different dimensions of human variation, linguistic, biological, and cultural. This chapter focuses on both the changing subsistence practices of New Guinean populations over some 50 millennia, and the development of interaction and social networks between and within highland and lowland populations over the same time. Although Lapita pottery, often considered a marker of Austronesian migrants, is found in relatively small quantities on New Guinea, post-Lapita ceramics, document production, and exchange systems over the last two thousand years.
