1959 Map of Anaehoomalu

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The coastal transition of West Hawaii appears here in late 1950s detail, where the Anaehoomalu Lava Flow and the Lava Flow of 1859 meet the shoreline of the Pacific Ocean. This arid, volcanic landscape is defined by its traditional Hawaiian water features and coastal settlements, including the Kahapapa Fishpond and Kuualii Fishpond located near the small community of Anaehoomalu. The map provides a look at the region's human history through the presence of Petroglyphs and the Kiholo-Puako Trail, which served as a vital overland link across the rough basalt fields.
