Remote sensing and citizen science for habitat mapping
In a time of extensive global biodiversity loss, conservation efforts increasingly rely on high‐resolution, accurate, up‐to‐date habitat maps to guide decision‐making and strategic interventions. Many products have been developed in response, using machine learning (ML) methods to automate habitat classification, often relying on satellite imagery due to the limited availability of ecological survey data at a landscape scale. To ensure that these…
Searching for the potters behind the pots
Ceramic studies have been crucial to the development of archaeology. This paper is concerned with a re-examination of the pottery, and the potters, of Tell Ahmar (ancient Til Barsib), Syria. It focuses on the ceramics from the Australian excavations in the Middle City (Area C), especially the more than 250,000 items from the 7th-century BCE Neo-Assyrian Stratum 2. The Stratum 2 assemblage was readily grouped into seventeen ware types. The various…
Evidence for textile production in Rabati, Georgia, during the Bedeni phase of the Early Kurgan period
Georgian-Australian excavations in the multi-period settlement site of Rabati, located in southwest Georgia, have produced substantial evidence of textile manufacturing in the Early Kurgan, Bedeni period (2400–2000 BCE). The results of Palynological, Non-Pollen Palynomorph (NPP), Archaeobotanical, bone and fired clay tool analyses presented here have identified fibres of flax and hemp. The presence of cotton is the earliest evidence for this fibr…
Heritage in Conflict
The Early Kurgan Period in Rabati, Georgia
This paper reports on radiocarbon ( 14 C) results from the recent archaeological investigations in the ancient frontier fortress of Rabati, in southwest Georgia, a collaborative research project involving archaeologists from the Georgian National Museum and the University of Melbourne. From the first three excavation seasons spanning 2016, 2018, and 2019, it became clear that significant Bedeni phase deposits capped most of the summit of the site…
Grandfathers at Melbourne Museum
This article discusses a visitor research project conducted at Melbourne Museum in 2017. The aim of the study was to gain a better understanding of the perceptions and experiences of older museum visitors. The project research design entailed collection and interpretation of data from 39 semi-structured interviews and a short survey of 103 older visitors aged 60 years and over. A significant finding was the theme of museums as places of intergene…

A sociocultural analysis of the ethics of involving children in educational research
This article explores the ethical complexities of involving children in research in the contexts of their families, schools and communities. We argue for an approach that is dynamic, reflexive, responsive and informed by an understanding of how local cultures impact on and shape negotiations and practices around ethical issues and processes. We use different sociocultural lenses to analyse the complexities of ethical processes and practices at th…
Emeritus Professor Antonio Giuseppe Sagona FSA Faha AM
The death of Antonio (Tony) Sagona on 29 June 2017 deprived the field of Near Eastern archaeology generally, and the University of Melbourne in particular, of a most distinguished scholar. Tony played a crucial role in promoting and developing the study of archaeology at the University of Melbourne. His unwavering commitment to research, combined with rigorous archaeological fieldwork techniques, an engaging teaching style and remarkable personal…
Developing Strategies for Sustainably Managing Archaeological Collections
The essay by Kersel is both timely and important, for it addresses a neglected aspect of archaeology: the short-and long-term care of increasing numbers of archaeological collections. The “curation crisis” is not an isolated phenomenon. A shortage in repository space is faced by all institutions with responsibilities in managing cultural collections. Given that archaeological collections are increasing, this problem requires serious consideration…
F. W. Farrar and Novels of the Public Schools
The schoolboy world of F. W. Farrar is, in the words of one historian, 'the nightmare emanation of some morbid, introverted Ibrain, the creation of a Clough who had lost all saving sense of proportion'.1 Certainly, the schools and colleges featured in Farrar's three major novels, Eric or Little by Little (1858), Julian Home (i86o) and St. Winifred's (1862) are harsh, gloomy places. Julian is a student at 'Camford'2 and Eric and Walter Evson (of' …
