About this map

Wailuku River carves through a landscape defined by volcanic history and early 20th-century settlement patterns in this survey of the South Hilo District. The map provides a detailed record of the terrestrial scars left by the Lava Flow of 1855, the Lava Flow of 1881, and the Lava Flow of 1852, showing how these events shaped the development of Punahoa Homesteads and Kaumana Homesteads.
