    Abstract

    Between 2007 and 2015, the CIRAP carried on archaeological research on Ua Huka Island, in the northern group of the Marquesas. Our attention focused on coastal sites where we aimed at documenting past human occupation, and gaining new chronological data. We also investigated ancient settlements in the valleys, and particularly in the so-called marginal spaces which served two main purposes: the defense of the territory and its people, as well as the management of the dead. This article synthesizes our results and offers new insights onto the long-term history of the island, and beyond, the archipelago.
