| Description | This series contains material from south of Vitale (near West Guadalcanal Island), concentrating on the Vaturanga language. It includes comparative vocabulary lists (Vaturanga-English), a reprint of a language on Vaturanga grammar by W.G. Ivens, and a map of the language distribution on Guadacanal Island. Guadalcanal, a 2,510 square mile (6,500 kmē) island in the Pacific Ocean and a province of the Solomon Islands, is largely a jungle. The island became the scene of the important Battle of Guadalcanal during World War II. The island contains the national capital of the Solomon Islands, Honiara.
