Abstract
Five archaeological sites are described from the present-day coast of Long Island, and their probable ages are discussed. The earliest human occupation was at least 1000 years ago, with further occupation between about 350-550 years ago. Obsidian was imported from Talasea, New Britain, and possibly several kinds of pottery may have been imported from the mainland of New Guinea. The relation of Long Island to historically-known trading networks is discussed.
