Nigel’s willingness to conduct the honour’s student’s field school at the site each year made this entire project feasible and without his help we would not have discovered as much as we have. I also thank them for all their feedback on the drafts for the chapters and for their advice on how to structure the thesis as a whole. I would also like to thank Townsville City Council, who own the land on which this research was conducted, for their permission to carry out the work and for the help from Ted Bundi, the local Heritage Officer.

  • Understanding Australia's Cultural History Through Archaeological
    Understanding Australia’s Cultural History Through Archaeological Geophysics Kelsey M. Lowe BA, Minnesota State University Moorhead, 2003 MA, University of Mississippi, 2005 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2014 School of Geography, Planning and Environmental Management i Abstract The aim of this thesis is to develop and apply geophysical methods for Australian archaeology. The methods focus on magnetic susceptibility and ground-penetrating radar (GPR). The techniques are contextualised through application to the following four key archaeological questions: 1) Can magnetic susceptibility assist in resolving questions surrounding the potential downward movement of stone artefacts in rockshelter deposits? 2) Is human occupation persistent through the changing climatic regime associated with the last glacial maximum (LGM) at a Pleistocene-aged rockshelter in interior Australia? 3) How might we identify burials in a geologically complex rockshelter deposit? 4) How might magnetic susceptibility contribute to knowledge about the formation of ‘archaeologically instantaneous’ shell matrix sites? In exploring these questions, research was conducted at two rockshelters in northern Australia and on three shell mounds in the Gulf of Carpentaria, Australia. Magnetic susceptibility studies were undertaken at Gledswood Shelter 1 (GS1), a rockshelter occupied at ca 38,000 BP, to understand its history and formation processes. An experimental burning program using off-site samples was conducted to confirm that magnetically enhanced sediments in the cultural deposits were the direct result of anthropogenic burning rather than natural fires, pedogenesis or weathering. This change coincides with the level at which stone artefacts appear in the sedimentary sequence, indicating that they are in situ and have not moved down from higher layers above.

  • Looking for Graves: Geophysical Prospection of Cemeteries
    Looking for Graves: Geophysical Prospection of Cemeteries Apostolos SARRIS | Nikos PAPADOPOULOS Laboratory of Geophysical-Satellite Remote Sensing & Arhaeo-environment, Institute for Mediterranean Studies, Foundation for Research and Technology, Hellas (F.O.R.T.H.), Rethymnon, Crete, Greece. Abstract: Geophysical prospection of cemeteries has been always challenging in terms of locating and recognizing untouched graves and tombs. Every cemetery has its own specific characteristics, with different types of graves of diverse conservation status. Various geophysical methods have been applied in the past for locating tombs and graves and delimitating the boundaries of the burial grounds and the mortuary landscapes. For the case of built tombs, results could be more straightforward than other cases where disturbed, isolated, prehistoric tombs are targeted. A range of case studies consisting of various environmental settings and diverse types of tombs and graves are presented together with the specific geophysical approaches involving the application of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), magnetics, Electromagnetic (EM), soil resistance techniques and other. Examples are drawn from Eastern Mediterranean (Greece, Cyprus, Egypt) and they demonstrate the degree of efficiency of these methods to detect untouched graves and tombs. The above will signify the importance of geophysical prospection in mapping the mortuary landscape and provide guidance for future excavation. Keywords: Geophysical prospection, cemetery, grave, tomb, mortuary space, archaeological survey. Introduction: Searching for Tombs. Hunting the Dead! Graves and tombs comprise the most common subterranean man-made cavities. The small size of the buried features in combination to slight physical contrast between the grave’s filling material and the surrounding soil renders the location of such structures a real challenge to archaeological geophysics.

  • Avenues of Honour / Memorial Avenues / Lone Pine List
    Avenues of Honour, Memorial and other avenues, groves and Lone Pines – around Australia, in New Zealand and Turkey Update: An updated list follows. Bolded text is new: numbers rise. 6 Boer War avenues, 466 Honour Avenues (11 new, in Qld.); 103 Memorial Avenues (2 new, in NSW & Tas., with 7 in NZ); 289 WW2 or later war memorial non-avenue plantings (groves, etc: 21 new, in ACT, NSW, NT (for only its second record, yet) and Qld.); 179 Notable avenues (30 new, in ACT and Qld.), 129 Lone Pines, (8 new, with 113 in Australia & 16 in NZ). Victoria’s National Trust are entering all avenues on their NTA Significant Tree Register: a great move. Heritage Victoria are running a consultancy to audit that state’s avenues, liaise with Councils, identify key risks, develop an assessment tool for them, a priority list for state listing and action plan to conserve significant avenues. Bravo: a good precedent that other states and territories could be encouraged to emulate. Background: Avenues of Honour or Honour Avenues (commemorating WW1) Australia, with a population of then just 3 million, had 415,000 citizens mobilised in military service over World War 1. Debates on conscription were divisive, nationally and locally. Australia would lose 60,000 soldiers to WW1 – a ratio of one in five to its population at the time. New Zealand’s 1914 population was 1 million. World War 1 saw 10% of its people, some 103,000 troops and nurses head overseas, many for the first time. Some 18,277 died in World War1 and another 41,317 (65,000: Mike Roche, pers.

Wallis3 Despite this, the provision of formal training in archaeological 1 geophysics in order to nurture a new generation of skilled Research School of Earth Sciences, The Australian National graduates has been noticeably lacking. Recognising this University 2 deficiency, the Department of Archaeology at Flinders University Department of Archaeology, Flinders University has established a programme in this area which aims to undertake 3Aboriginal Environments Research Centre, University of Queensland 4 innovative, industry-relevant research and teaching in this Email: [email protected] discipline, and complement archaeological research projects in the department. Initially developing out of informal collaborations between consulting company Ecophyte Technologies and the Department, the archaeological geophysics program has grown considerably to now be an integral, vibrant component of the teaching and research program. In this article we profile some of the recent research and teaching activities of the Department of Archaeology relating to archaeological geophysics. Academic teaching Teaching geophysical techniques to students whose background is humanities, arts or social sciences (as opposed to ‘hard science’ areas) requires an approach that makes the subject accessible, engaging and demonstrably practical, without compromising the quality and rigor of the content. With this in mind, archaeology students are first exposed in small measures to geophysical techniques throughout their undergraduate degree in field-based subjects such as ARCH1003 Field Ian Moffat and Lynley Wallis attempt to repair a differential GPS antenna, Archaeology, ARCH2201 Archaeological Field Methods, Woolgar River Open Site, Northwest Queensland.
