(viewed October 31, 2023). 520 3 The Pacific Theatre of World War II left behind a plethora of archaeological sites, many of which are still being located. In 2016, the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)'s Okeanos Explorer mission to Wake Island located one such site. Utilizing a remotely operated vehicle (ROV), the team believed they had located the remains of the Japanese warship Hayate, but markings on the side of the vessel indicated that this was instead the site of Amakasu Maru No. 1 (Cantelas and Wagner 2016). Sunk by the US submarine Triton on 24 December 1942, Amakasu Maru No. 1 was a requisitioned water tanker in the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) (Jentschura et al. 1970). Vessel requisition was a common practice within the IJN and while some of these sites have been archaeologically investigated, many have yet to be located. This research provides a detailed study of the Amakasu Maru No. 1 wreck site utilizing a site formation framework. A detailed literature review was also conducted to determine the amount of archaeological research already completed on IJN requisitioned vessels throughout the Pacific and their current levels of site preservation. A comprehensive catalog of this subject was produced which will be of assistance to future researchers interested in developing a study on similar vessels throughout the region. To make the subject material more accessible to the public, an ESRI Story Map was developed utilizing the cataloged information detailing the placement, as well as the extent of research, that has been conducted on each of these sites. 504 Includes bibliographical references. 610 10 Japan. |bKaigun |xHistory |y20th century. |=^A20125 651 0 Japan |xHistory, Naval |y1868-1945. |=^A704189 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |zJapan. |=^A24239 650 0 Underwater archaeology |zJapan. |=^A19718 650 0 Seizure of vessels and cargoes. |=^A381988 653 Imperial Japanese Navy 653 site formation 653 requisitioned vessel 655 7 Academic theses. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01726453 655 7 Academic theses. |2lcgft 700 1 McKinnon, Jennifer F. |q(Jennifer Faith), |d1974- |edegree supervisor. |=^A1271535 710 2 East Carolina University. |bDepartment of History. |=^A636991 856 40 |uhttp://hdl.handle.net/10342/10657 |zAccess via ScholarShip 949 |owjh 994 C0 |bERE 596 1 4 998 5831710
