Books
 
Hamlet's Mill
Giorgio di Santillana and Hertha Von Deschend

 

a must read.  Brilliant work.  Hard to read, but plow on through.  By now a classic, if something can be a classic in a field that doesn't quite exist yet.  Both authors were widely respected scholars and this book has influenced scholars in several fields, including archaeoastronomy, geoarchaeology, anthropology, archaeology, ethnology, and mythology.

pure Hawaiian, purely fabulous.
 
Uncle Moe Keale passed away in 2002, but he left his music, and this recording is pure Moe.
