The Pacific War (1941-45), was characterised by a brutality and
violence unmatched in any other theatre. Described by indigenous
Micronesians as a ‘typhoon,’ the war was an unstoppable force
that rolled across the islanders’ homes, leaving only a trail of
destruction in its wake, with physical, psychological, and cultural
impacts that continue to resonate today. This difficult period is
examined in a variety of ways through chapters that include
targeted studies of archaeological sites, wider surveys of
battlefield landscapes, and the ways in which we commemorate the
experiences and legacies of both combatants and civilian
populations. The translation of important research by Okinawan,
Japanese, and Russian archaeologists bring regions that have
previously been neglected in Anglophone literature into focus and
enrich this comprehensive exploration of the archaeology of the
Pacific War. This book will be of interest to archaeological
practitioners, students, and members of the general public working
in conflict studies or with an interest in the material culture,
history, and legacies of the Pacific War.
