A Walk Through Time with Rock Cairns

Have you ever come across a stack of stones on a hike and wondered about its story? Throughout history, people all over the world—from tropics of Hawaii to the cold of Iceland—used these humble cairns to navigate harsh terrains. They weren’t just piles of rocks; they were lifesaving beacons, guiding travelers through mountains, deserts, and wilderness when the landscape offered no map.

Every cairn tells a story of human resilience, of finding direction in the vast unknown. When our research teams use these cairns to navigate, we also map it with our modern GPS equipment to create interactive maps, yet we imagine the footsteps that came before us—centuries of adventurers, herders, and wanderers trusting in these silent guides.

🌺 Throwback to an Unforgettable Expedition! 🏺✨

The anthropology research team had the incredible privilege of exploring Lapakahi State Historical Park on the Big Island of Hawaii! Guided by a Native Hawaiian Park Ranger, the team were immersed in the rich cultural history of the ancient fishing village. 🌊🏡

After listening to stories of his ancestors, listening to ancient prayers sung in their original form, and walking through the ruins of a thriving community that once lived in harmony with the land and sea, the team@provided local plants and native fruits as offerings of thanks to our amazing guide🌿🌏

This hands-on experience brought history to life and reminded us of the deep connection between culture and environment. 🙌 For the research team, it was an unparalleled opportunity to see the world through the lens of locals and honor the legacy of a vibrant past. 💡💬 All research conducted by the team was then collected and published in our regional field guide to the Big Island.

What’s the most memorable cultural experience you’ve had on your travels? Let us know in the comments! 👇👇

Who says maps have to stay on a screen? Our research interns may spend all day using GPS mapping apps, and navigating maps in Icelandic, but there’s something magical about getting creative and drawing maps by hand.

Have you ever admired Icelandic horses and their luxurious, flowing manes? 🐴 It’s not just a beautiful feature—it’s a practical one that keeps these majestic creatures perfectly adapted to their snowy, cold environment. 🌬️🌨️

Plus, let’s admit it—they wear their hair better than most of us! If you’ve ever met an Icelandic horse, you know their beauty goes beyond their appearance—these strong and gentle companions are as special as their signature look. 🇮🇸
