Asan, Guam
Asan ((チャモロ語:Assan)) is a village located on the western shore of the United States territory of Guam. The municipality of Asan-Maina combines Asan with Maina, a community in the hills to the east. It was a primary landing site for United States Marines during Guam's liberation from the Japanese during World War II. Asan Beach Park is part of the War in the Pacific National Historic Park. Asan and Maina are located in the Luchan (Western) District. ==Etymology==
Asan derives its name from the Chamorro word ''hassan'' meaning scarce or rare. A meaning of the word ''ma’ina'' refers to an infant who, between the time of birth and baptism, is taken by the mother to Mass before sunrise; this ritual considered the presentation of the child to the temple or church.
