Bollt spent much of his career studying the prehistory of the Austral Islands in French Polynesia. He published a monograph about his excavations on the island of Rurutu (Peva)[2] and co-authored several journal articles on prehistoric fishing strategies [3] and extirpated birds, bats and land mammals,[4][5][6] on both Rurutu and Tubuai. At the time of his death he was analyzing material from the excavation he led in 2007 on the island of Tubuai at the Atiahara site, a remarkable Archaic East Polynesian occupation.[7]
Bollt was a professor at the University of Hawaii Manoa from 2005 to early 2007. He taught a range of classes in the anthropology department including lithic analysis, lab analysis, Hawaiian archaeology and Anthropology 101.
