Current research: The University of Queensland

Abstract

Archaeological research at UQ is presently very healthy with a number of people doing a variety of projects.  An important milestone was reached in 1987 when the University of Queensland awarded its first Ph.D. in archaeology to Ian Walters for his thesis research into the development of the prehistoric Aboriginal fishery in Moreton Bay.  Ian has since gained a position as the first archaeological Lecturer at the new University College of the Northern Territory.
