Hagåtña (formerly Agana) is the capital of Guam. According to the 2000 Census, it has a population of 1,100.


In 1998, the territorial legislature changed the name from Agana (pronounced Aganja (SAMPA)) to Hagåtña to more closely match the Chamorro/Chamoru pronunciation.


The city is served by Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport in Tamuning.

Agana Belea and the Death of Socrates (3072 words)
Agana belea, the sweet shafts of Apollo and Artemis, indicates a swift and painless death.(2) In the Phaedo Socrates describes himself as dedicated to the same god as the swans who belong to Apollo.(3) Artemis, sister of Apollo and the goddess of midwifery, is also referred to by Socrates in the Theaetetus.
Agana Belea and the Death of Socrates, Note 1
However common this invocation may be in the "Orators," there is no prima facie reason to disregard it in the speech of Socrates, especially when Socrates insists that he is telling the truth and completely avoiding the use of rhetoric.
ATSDR - Public Health Assessment - AGANA POWER PLANT, MONGMONG, GUAM p-1 (5511 words)
Most of the stations were located in or near heavily traveled areas, and the Agana station was located in a populated area approximately 1 mile west of (and downwind from) the former APP.
ATSDR recognizes that the fires in Agana Swamp might cause trace amounts of contaminants to be released from sediments.
Because these fire conditions are not consistent with those that occur at Agana Swamp, it is difficult to predict whether or not adverse health effects would occur among Guam residents exposed to smoke from swamp fires.
