Abstract

Findings of architectural traces and other remains at Chatham, Cocos Island, are described. They are the first archaeologically-documented evidence of early historical occupation on this remote island. Historical records relate the vestiges to a house dating from the time when Cocos served as a prison island, 1878 to 1881. The archaeological exploration indicates that it was a wooden house, roofed with iron sheets; it had paved porches and a stone drain. Additional remains are linked to later periods. Use of the panoramic location during the pirate era cannot be ruled out.
