The opening keynote address was given by Prof. R.W.R. Rutland, Director of the Bureau of Mineral Resources. Other keynote speakers were E.S.T. O'Driscoll, an Australian consultant, and Prof P. Bankwitz, Central Institute for Physics of the Earth, Potsdam, GDR. Technical sessions were arranged by session conveners on the following five topics:- i) The structure of the Australian craton and cover basins; ii) Basement structure of continental regions; iii) Structural patterns and mineral deposits; iv) Techniques for analysing basement structures; v) Structural patterns in oceanic crust. The arrangement of papers for this Proceedings Volume has been simplified. Part 1 deals with Australia, Part 2 with other areas and Part 3 lists the titles of all the papers read at the conference. Abstracts of these papers are available in Geological Society of Australia Abstracts No 26 and may be purchased for $AI0 from the Geological Society of Australia Office, ANA House, 301 George Street, Sydney NSW 2000. Field trips to view aspects of the Lachlan Fold Belt and the Sydney Basin were assisted by H.J. Harrington, D. Branagan, D. Wyborn, B. Drummond and M.J. Rick~d. A longer field trip, aborted through low enrolments, was organized by H.J. Harrington with assistance from W. Preiss, N. Cook, R. Glenn, A. Grady, and P. James; this assistance is gratefully acknowledged. The Organizing Committee wishes to thank ACTS for their helpful work as Convention Secretariat, L. Moore and W. Crowe who projected the slides and the following who chaired sessions at the meeting: M. Duggan, H.J. Harrington, R. Korsch, M. Muir, C. Simpson, W. Mayer and P. Wellman. We also thank J. Braun and H. McQueen of the Research School of Earth Sciences at ANU for displaying their computer models of basin development. Assistance with typing and editing was provided by M. Coldrick. Drs E. Heidecker and J. Leven assisted the Editors with refereeing manuscripts. We thank all the delegates, especially those from overseas who made the long journey 'down under' and who, by attending, helped make the conference a success. Finally we thank the Trustees of International Basement Tectonics Incorporated for entrusting the Conference to Canberra. M.J.

Introduction IRAQ 5595 m JORDAN -428 m Land exposed Southwestern Saudi Arabia is a crucial region in narratives of hominin dispersals from East Africa into the Arabian Peninsula and across the globe at sea level via the ‘Southern Route’ (Beyin 2006; Petraglia and Alsharekh 2003), particularly in dispersals of Homo sapiens, but also in dispersals of earlier of -120 m SAUDI populations. One of the wettest and most ecologically diverse regions in the Arabian Peninsula, it was easily accessible from East Africa across EGYPT ARABIA QATAR Riyadh the Hanish Sill-Bab el Mandab during periods of low sea level (Lambeck et al. 2011), and was climatically buffered from the major periods of U.A.E. aridity that would have caused the interior of the peninsula to become uninhabitable. It also offered marine and littoral resources to Palaeolithic Jeddah OMAN populations, yet little is known about the Palaeolithic occupation of the coastal region.

The dating methods all use stimulated luminescence to register signals developed in mineral systems in response to long term exposure to ionising radiation in the environment. The principles of luminescence dating are outlined followed by discussion of its application to the Arabian Peninsula, where, particularly in SE Arabia and parts of the interior, a growing corpus of work is emerging, which is helping to define past arid or humid periods of importance to palaeoclimatology and to archaeology. Turning to the Red Sea, studies conducted within the DISPERSE project are presented both in marine and terrestrial settings.
