Human cognition
Cognitive archaeology benefits from the specific record of Australian evidence, which offers important glimpses of early human thinking in its burials and art. Colin Renfrew's insightful Prehistory: the making of the human mind (2007) undervalues the evidence relating to social intelligence (cognitive archaeology) available from Pleistocene Australia, whilst Steven Mithen's The prehistory of the human mind (1996) refers only to recent Aboriginal …

relation to its Aboriginal component. It was convened by
Aboriginal Australians abroad 1606–1875
Thirteen Aboriginal cricketers disembarked at Gravesend on 13 May 1868 to commence a 47-match tour of England. In British sporting history, it probably was the first overseas team to tour England. It also constituted the largest Aboriginal group to visit nineteenth century Europe. All men returned home, except for King Cole (Brippoki), who died in London from tuberculosis.1
Reflections
Professor John Mulvaney, pioneer and champion of Australian archaeology, offers us some reflections from the vantage point of his eightieth year. On his retirement 20 years ago Antiquity was glad to publish his Retrospect (Mulvaney 1986), in which he described his awakening interest in history at Melbourne, his first visit to the Rollright Stones and his fruitful encounters with Gordon Childe, Graham Clark, Glyn Daniel, Mortimer Wheeler and many …
Digging in the archaeology archives
Personal correspondence written during the 1950s - by now a virtual archaological Dreaming - provides a context for excavations on the Murray River, at Fromm's Landing rockshelter 2, during January-February 1956, and the 1960 Queensland expedition during which pilot digs at Kenniff Cave and The Tombs collected Late Pleistocene radiocarbon 14 samples

From ‘The Dawn’ to Sunset
Only Gordon Childe's death sufficed to alert Australians to his international reputation. His private return after an absence of 35 years was unlikely to be newsworthy, given Australia's intellectual climate and regional isolation in 1957. 1 was totally unaware of Child's return in April, or of his visits to universities in Sydney and Canberra, despite the fact that it was in that year that I initiated Australia's only course in the prehistory of…
