Super pleased to announce that we were successful with our @arc_gov_au LIEF application to fund a massive upgrade of our Flinders Microarchaeology Laboratory, to form what will be AusMAP: the Australian Microarchaeology and Palaeosciences Facility.

Don't miss the Megaw lecture tomorrow! A/Prof. Kira Westaway from Macquarie U will explore the drivers of primate extinction, including H. floresiensis, H. erectus, and Gigantopithecus blacki. What are the implications for primate survival? 🐒🌍 Register: trybooking.com/events/landin…

Come and work with us at the Flinders Microarchaeology Laboratory and get to stare wistfully at interesting thin sections of archaeological dirt...

Working as part of an Aus and intl team, Flinders archaeologists @MikeGeoarch and Mirani Litster have helped to reassess the route that early humans took to reach Australia, using stone artefacts and animal bones found in a cave on Timor Island. Read more: bit.ly/3yG6o9K

When I teach Principal Component Analysis (PCA), I use my interactive dashboard to engage my students. They can observe how, through an orthogonal transformation (rotation) of a two-feature dataset, the variance of the data projected onto one of the components can be maximized.
I shared my #Python @matplotlib dashboard on #GitHub @ github.com/GeostatsGuy/DataS… ∀. #DataScience #MachineLearning

Archaeologists are great at digging up stuff & studying the past. But we’re not so great at sharing our work in a way that’s understandable, accessible & relevant to all. In my new article, I explore why this is & how we can improve

A unique project has seen veterans join in on an archaeological dig in Adelaide. Project Warhorse aims to provide veterans with an opportunity to engage in archaeology, while assisting them in their transition from service to civilian life. Find out more👉 bit.ly/4bU6I2K

Colonization of Sahul by Homo sapiens is an ongoing topic of research. Salles et al. model the environment through time in combination with Lévy walk foraging patterns to suggest a wave of dispersal following coastlines and rivers.

By detailing the landscape at the time of first humans’ migration into Australia, we can better understand how people travelled and where they settled.

📢 New paper!
We reconstructed 4000 years of historical vegetation using #eDNA targeted capture and #isotopes.
We found an #ecosystem shift happened 1000 years ago when the #seagrass environment changed to intertidal #mangroves.
Thank you to all who helped get this out there!
