  • Years of Aboriginal Mining at Sugarloaf Hill in the Riverland Region of South Australia

    Open Access•Craig Westell, Ian Moffat et al.•ARTICLE•Archaeology in Oceania/Archæology…•2026

    Silcrete and chert are commonly represented in Aboriginal archaeological lithic assemblages across large parts of the southwestern Murray‐Darling Basin (MDB). In South Australia (SA), these materials were sourced from a series of quarries located along the incised course of the Murray River through the upper Riverland region. However, only cursory details have been recorded for these quarries and there remains a lack of reliable chronological dat…

  • Understanding the Depositional History of the Archaeological Open‐Air Site, Klein Hoek 1, South Africa, Using Geophysical Geoarchaeology

    Open Access•Oliver Hatswell, Ian Moffat et al.•ARTICLE•Geoarchaeology•2025•Referencias: 6

    Archaeological field research in South African archaeology has been dominated by rock shelters. While rock shelters provide the advantage of a defined area of investigation and more limited processes of erosion and sediment accumulation, they only capture part of the archaeological, environmental and landscape records. More of the record can be found in open‐air sites; however, these require a different methodological approach within which geophy…

    Open Access•Amy Roberts, Marc Fairhead et al.•ARTICLE•Rock Art Research•2024•Referencias: 8

    This article describes and contextualises the rock art at the Thurk Petroglyph Site on the Murray River in South Australia using multiple methods. The Thurk Aboriginal engravings comprise at least 524 motifs made up predominantly of geometric line elements as well as a small number of other ‘simple’ geometric motifs, two ‘bird tracks’, one figurative design (a ‘fish’) and a possible anthropomorphous figure. This paper provides the first synthesis…

  • Aboriginal earth mounds and Enso on the Calperum floodplain, Murray-Darling Basin, South Australia

    This paper presents new data derived from pollen, starch and radiocarbon samples that were collected from six Aboriginal earth (oven) mounds and middens on the Calperum and Pike floodplains, Murray-Darling Basin (MDB), South Australia (SA). Analyses of these samples were undertaken in order to enhance our understanding about the Holocene lifeways of Aboriginal people living in this region. The results from these analyses, combined with published …

  • Calibrating Holocene human–environment interactions using ancient narratives

    Open Access•Patrick Nunn, Roger Luebbers et al.•ARTICLE•The Journal of Island and Coastal…•2024•Citada por: 2•Referencias: 10

    The essence of stories of human–environment interactions can be preserved in oral contexts for millennia, creating novel opportunities for humanizing the past. This study examines stories (knowledge-rich narratives) about the ancestral being Ngurunderi, told by Ngarrindjeri peoples of South Australia. Three elements of the Ngurunderi narrative are considered. The first recalls his journey along a 170-km long coastal barrier (Younghusband Peninsul…

    Open Access•A Mackay, Rosaria B K Saktura et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Paleolithic Archaeology•2023•Citada por: 7•Referencias: 27

    The rock shelter site Klipfonteinrand 1 (KFR1), located on the edge of southern Africa’s Fynbos biome, was initially excavated by John Parkington in 1969. Due to difficulties resolving the stratigraphic sequence, the lack of age estimates, and generally poor organic preservation, the Middle Stone Age (MSA) components of the site have received limited attention. In this paper we report on the re-excavation, dating, palaeoecology, and cultural sequ…

  • ‘Do dead men tell no tales?’ The geographic origin of a colonial period Anglican cemetery population in Adelaide, South Australia, determined by isotope analyses

    Christine Adams, Timothy Owens et al.•ARTICLE•Australian Archaeology•2022

    Tooth enamel and dentine samples from 13 individuals buried in the unmarked ‘free ground’ colonial section of St Mary’s Anglican Cemetery in Adelaide were analysed for oxygen and strontium isotopic composition to assist with the determination of their geographic origin. As the life history of these individuals is not well-documented in the historical record, isotopic data provide important information about migration and mobility in a colonial So…

    Earth mounds are common archaeological features in some regions of Australia, particularly within the Murray‐Darling Basin. These features are generally considered to have formed via the repeated use of earth oven cookery methods employed by Aboriginal people during the mid‐ to late‐Holocene. This study assesses the relative effectiveness of key geophysical methods including magnetometry, ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity …

  • Using ground penetrating radar to understand the failure of the Koh Ker Reservoir, Northern Cambodia

    Open Access•Ian Moffat, Sarah Klassen et al.•ARTICLE•Geoarchaeology•2019•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 4

    Ground penetrating radar, probing, and excavation were used to create a contour map of the topography of a buried laterite pavement forming the spillway of a large abandoned reservoir at the Angkorian‐period city of Koh Ker in Cambodia. Calculations of the flow velocity of water through the spillway, based on the topography of the laterite surface, demonstrate that this outlet was even less adequate for passing the flow of water from the Stung Ro…

  • Mapping of bioavailable strontium isotope ratios in France for archaeological provenance studies

    Open Access•M Willmes, Clément P Bataille et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geochemistry•2018

    Strontium isotope ratios (87Sr/86Sr) of archaeological samples (teeth and bones) can be used to track mobility and migration across geologically distinct landscapes. However, traditional interpolation algorithms and classification approaches used to generate Sr isoscapes are often limited in predicting multiscale 87Sr/86Sr patterning. Here we investigate the suitability of plant samples and soil leachates from the IRHUM database (www.irhumdatabas…

    Open Access•Jamieson C Donati, Apostolos Sarris et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Field Archaeology•2017•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 15

    The systematic exploration of large archaeological sites in the Mediterranean has evolved considerably since the “big dig” excavations. Pedestrian field surveying and remote sensing applications, including satellite and airborne image analysis, are now practical and relatively cost-efficient methods of characterizing large and diachronically diverse landscapes on regional scales. However, the use of geophysical techniques as a means for exploring…

  • Mapping of bioavailable strontium isotope ratios in France for archaeological provenance studies

    Open Access•M Willmes, Clément P Bataille et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geochemistry•2018

    Strontium isotope ratios (87Sr/86Sr) of archaeological samples (teeth and bones) can be used to track mobility and migration across geologically distinct landscapes. However, traditional interpolation algorithms and classification approaches used to generate Sr isoscapes are often limited in predicting multiscale 87Sr/86Sr patterning. Here we investigate the suitability of plant samples and soil leachates from the IRHUM database (www.irhumdatabas…

  • Indigenous built structures and anthropogenic impacts on the stratigraphy of Northern Australian rockshelters

    Daryl Wesley, Mirani Litster et al.•ARTICLE•Australian Archaeology•2018•Citada por: 7•Referencias: 22

    Malarrak 1 is currently the northernmost excavated rockshelter on the Australian mainland, located in the Wellington Range in north western Arnhem Land. The site contains a rich late Holocene deposit, with extensive contact rock art, stone artefacts, shell, bone, contact materials, ancestral human remains, and other cultural material. Excavation of the Malarrak 1 rockshelter and analysis of its sediments revealed many impacts on site formation pr…

  • A geophysical analysis of Aboriginal earth mounds in the Murray River Valley, South Australia

    Open Access•Dave Ross, M Morrison et al.•ARTICLE•Archaeological Prospection•2019•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 11

    Earth mounds are common archaeological features in some regions of Australia, particularly within the Murray‐Darling Basin. These features are generally considered to have formed via the repeated use of earth oven cookery methods employed by Aboriginal people during the mid‐ to late‐Holocene. This study assesses the relative effectiveness of key geophysical methods including magnetometry, ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity …

  • Using ground penetrating radar to understand the failure of the Koh Ker Reservoir, Northern Cambodia

    Open Access•Ian Moffat, Sarah Klassen et al.•ARTICLE•Geoarchaeology•2019•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 4

    Ground penetrating radar, probing, and excavation were used to create a contour map of the topography of a buried laterite pavement forming the spillway of a large abandoned reservoir at the Angkorian‐period city of Koh Ker in Cambodia. Calculations of the flow velocity of water through the spillway, based on the topography of the laterite surface, demonstrate that this outlet was even less adequate for passing the flow of water from the Stung Ro…

  • How do we distinguish termite stone lines from artefact horizons? A challenge for geoarchaeology in tropical Australia

    Open Access•Mike Smith, Ian Ward et al.•ARTICLE•Geoarchaeology•2019•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 11

    Can we distinguish stone lines created by termite bioturbation from genuine artefact horizons? This is a challenge for field archaeology and geoarchaeology in northern Australia, where termites are abundant. We review published data to (a) present a model of the evolution of stone lines and (b) develop guidelines for recognizing these bioturbation products in archaeological contexts. In case studies, we examine Madjedbebe and Nauwalabila, two sit…
