我们对各种生存方式了解得越多，“农业”的定义就越不明确，也就越难将澳大利亚和新几内亚的数据划分为不同的类别。如果在新几内亚发现一些澳大利亚数据，就会将这些社会标记为农业社会。我建议两条途径：残留物分析和历史研究，沿着这两条途径，对这个问题的研究可能会有效地继续下去。
The more we learn about varieties of subsistence, the less clear defi nitions of 'agriculture' become, and the harder it is to see the Australian and New Guinean data as falling into separate classes. Some Australian data, if found in New Guinea, would label those societies as agricultural. I suggest two avenues, residue analysis and historical research, along which research in this matter might usefully continue.
