dc.description.abstract | The observations reported here were made in Papua New Guinea in 1967 and 1968 and the analysis and library research was completed in 1970. Most of the data were presented in more detail and with more caution in a PhD thesis in 1971, prepared while in the Department of Human Geography, ANU. There have been additions, especially to the section on stone, and some corrections. The tools discussed in Chapter VI are now in the Department of Prehistory, ANU. | |

local.description.notes | Terra Australis reports the results of archaeological research, in the main of staff and students of the Dept. of Prehistory, Research School of Pacific Studies, The Australian National University. Its region is the lands south and ea t of Asia , though mainly Aus tralia, New Guinea and Island Melanesia , that were terra australis incognita to generations of European geographers before Cook and are largely so to prehistorians today. Its subject is the settlement f the diverse environments in this isolated quarter of the globe by peoples who have maintained their di crete and traditional ways of life into the recent recorded r remembered past and at times into the observable present . | en_AU |
