Deep History of Sea Country: Submerged Palaeolandscapes & World Archaeology

[Adrian Mollenmans]

Dear All,

Please see attached flyer for the Flinders University Investigator lecture series at the Flinders in the City campus this Wednesday 18 October, 5.30-6.45pm Flinders University, 182 Victoria Square, Adelaide - Lecture Theatre 1 (Level 1).

Dr Jonathan Benjamin - Senior Lecturer in Archaeology at Flinders University - will deliver a Flinders Investigators lecture on 'Deep History of Sea Country: Submerged Palaeolandscapes and World Archaeology’: 

Nearly one-third of Australia’s landmass was drowned after the last ice age and generations of people were displaced by sea-level change. Information from drowned contexts will help address critical debates in Australian archaeology relating to past sea-level rise, population resilience, mobility, and diet. The DHSC project evaluates ‘the known’ by studying submerged material from the Baltic Sea (Denmark) in order to consider the unknown: the shelf of modern Australia.
