A 6000 Year‐old Fossil Dugong from Botany Bay
The excavation in the 1890s of a skeleton of the warm‐water marine mammal Dugong dugon , associated with Aboriginal artefacts, from a Botany Bay salt marsh, marked the beginning of speculation about climate and sea level change in Australia over the period of human occupation. The dugong bones have recently been dated, giving a conventional 14 C age of 5520±70 years BP, which is consistent with three older 14 C dates for a layer of buried trees t…
Human impact on the natural environment in early colonial Australia
Little Llangothlin Lagoon on the New England Tablelands of northeast New South Wales possesses the most detailed and best verified 210Pb chronology yet available in Australia. Recent criticisms of the length of the record are shown to be based on a faulty understanding of the principles of 210Pb dating. Attempts to revise the chronology of the lower part of the dated sequence by several decades must be rejected given that (a) fundamentally dissim…
The shaping of Sydney by its urban geology
Beyond the Limits of Location
The expansion of European occupation across Australia was closely circumscribed during the first half century of the colony's existence. Despite this, there is considerable evidence of unsanctioned movements beyond the officially prescribed boundaries. Given their illegal nature, information on such movements is unlikely to be preserved in the documentary record. Other sources of information may, however, yield evidence of these activities. Perha…
Inter-tidal fixed indicators of former Holocene sea levels in Australia
Land Use and Lake Sedimentation on the New England Tablelands of New South Wales, Australia
Lead-210 methods have been used to establish a chronology of sedimentation extending back almost 80 years in Black Mountain Lagoon near Guyra on the New England Tablelands of north-eastern New South Wales, Australia. Estimates of the direct atmospheric fallout of unsupported 210Pb and historical records of the pattern of phosphorus input to the lake provide support for the 210Pb chronology. The sediments in the lake record an episode of disturban…
