Dr. Peter Mills, an anthropology professor at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo, is a leading expert on Pāʻulaʻula (formerly known as Russian Fort Elizabeth) on Kauaʻi. His research, including the book Hawaiʻi’s Russian Adventure, proves the fort was primarily built and used by Hawaiians, not Russians, challenging traditional narratives.
