A small ceremonial structure with one prominent upright stone, now bulldozed in the construction of the FBI building near the Main Gate of the Kalaeloa / /Barbers Point base. US Navy archaeologists maintained that this was not a pre-contact Hawaiian structure, based on a sketch showing WW II bulldozing in the area. The foundations of a WW II quonset hut lay a few hundred feet to the west.
