Section
Our current work
The Section is undertaking a number of archaeological projects. In the Gulf of Carpentaria and the Wellesley Islands the distribution of Aboriginal fishtraps is being documented and some sites have been excavated to date Aboriginal occupation in the region. In the vicinity of the Currawinya lakes, southwest Queensland, a project to document the spatial distribution of archaeological evidence and and to date occupation is also being undertaken. Aboriginal occupation in this area has been dated to about 14,000 years before the present. Artefact analysis from two rescue excavations at the Brisbane Commissariat Store and at the site of the Optus Theatre, Brisbane Southbank are continuing.
Guide to the collections
The Archaeology Section manages four collections. These are:
  • Collections of Aboriginal artefacts from Queensland (QE) made before the enactment of laws probibiting the collection of such artefacts.
  • Collections of Aboriginal artefacts from outside Queensland (E collections) made before the enactment of laws probibiting the collection of such artefacts. This collection has examples of artefacts found in various regions of Australia.

      The Sea People presents the archaeological data relating to the Holocene occupation of the Whitsuday Islands region of the central Queensland coast. This research provides details of the two oldest sies of Aboriginal occupation on the tropical east coast of Australia, as well as formulating a model of late Holocene change for the wider region.

      Australian archaeology can be defined as the study of past human behaviour and lifeways in the Australian context. But archaeologists should not be expected to reconstruct the pastfrom archaeological remains which are usually less than completely preserved.(1) As Caroline Bird observes: `Archaeologists cannot observe past behaviour directly but must interpret durable items of material culture, which constitute the residues of that behaviour, within their spatial and temporal context'.(2)
      This `spatial and temporal context' either encountered in an excavation or a ground survey concerns the location that an item occupies. Usually excavated sites conform to geological rules with earliest buried layers of debris from a site at the bottom and the latest evidence of occupation at the top. This arrangement is known as the `law of superposition'.(3) The association between an artefact or site and its context is central to all archaeological endeavour whether it is s Tools: Save Article
