--Rosalind Hunter-Anderson came to Micronesia in 1980 to study Yapese settlement patterns from an ethnoarchaeological perspective. This field experience led to her enduring interest in the prehistory and ethnology of the region. At the University of Guam, Hunter-Anderson pursued field studies on fresh water customs and organized the first Micronesian Archaeology Conference in 1987. Under a National Science Foundation fellowship at University of California at Irvine in 1989 she completed an archival study of traditional Micronesian farming systems. Returning to Guam, she joined archaeologists Darlene Moore, Judith Amesbury, and Eleanor Wells to form Micronesian Archaeological Research Services, undertaking numerous anthropological projects during the 1990s and early 2000s. Hunter-Anderson also produced a weekly public radio show, “Island Archaeology,” and continues to present her work at professional meetings and in scholarly journals and documentary videos. Hunter-Anderson and husband, Yigal Zan, moved to New Mexico in 2006, where she remains active in research and writing on the anthropology faculty at the University of New Mexico.
