Many of these sites are gone, along with hundreds of others, bulldozed in the development of the ʻEwa Marina project. This was the last shoreline complex left on Oʻahu. And because this part of Oʻahu is an emerged sea bed, it was the only complex of sites made of limestone rather than basalt.

The upright stone on the platform was not firmly set in place. It may have been put up recently. Of course, it may originally have been intended as an upright. [Note - prior to photographing I clear sites but NEVER move stones.] - A platform in area 4278 designated preservation. In theory, it still exists.

This pōhaku was probably not recorded because it lay adjacent to a bulldozer berm made during WWII and because there were no associated cultural features, like a platform. However, the stone had no bulldozer blade marks and appeared to predate the nearby berm. - A small upright and platform in area 3215, bulldozed

An archaeologist familiar with sites on Kahoʻolawe island commented that if this had been found there, it would have been identified as a koʻa (fishing shrine). However it was identified as a "temporary habitation" in the Oneʻula archaeological report, along with most of the other 400 listed sites. - An enclosure and upright in area 3215, bulldozed

Oddly, the archaeologist from the state Historic Preservation Division visited area 3215 at the urging of some local residents and wrote in a letter that she saw no evidence of upright stones or ceremonial sites there.

The upright was at the makai end of a small platform. In the bushes further makai was a low, linear platform in excellent shape, which unfortunately I never photographed. The archeologist who surveyed this area for Haseko Corporation wrote in his report that this and nearly all other 400 sites at Oneʻula were "temporary habitations." - Manō
