The human journey across the globe is one of our greatest achievements, yet the archaeological evidence for the earliest migrations is poorly dated, plagued by uncertainty and often overlooked. This project aims to characterise the nature of early human dispersals across Asia en route to Australasia by going beyond the timing and identification of human evidence to explore their behaviour, health and adaptability. Reconsidering early migrations within their environmental context will allow an assessment of their feasibility and address the disparity between the genetic and physical evidence. By elucidating the story of the greatest human journey we will develop a new understanding and appreciation of our survival and adaption capabilities.

整个全球的人类旅程是我们最大的成就之一，但是最早迁移的考古证据是过时的，受到不确定性的困扰，经常被忽视。该项目旨在通过超越人类证据的时间和识别人类的行为，健康和适应性来表征亚洲早期人类分散的本质。重新考虑在其环境环境中的早期迁移将允许评估其可行性，并解决遗传和物理证据之间的差异。通过阐明最伟大的人类旅程的故事，我们将对我们的生存和适应能力产生新的理解和欣赏。
