This project aims to undertake the first detailed investigation of the archaeology, landscape history and paleoenvironment of dryland lakes in the Simpson, Strzelecki and Stuart Stony Deserts in Central Australia. Using cutting edge methods, the project expects to discover new archaeological sites, provide a new climate record for inland Australia and develop innovative new analytical and field techniques. Expected benefits also include the development of new cutting-edge methodologies for the investigation of Australian desert landscapes, comprehensive baseline data of how this region has evolved prior to European colonization and resolving why no Pleistocene aged archaeological sites have been found in the region.

该项目旨在对澳大利亚中部Simpson、Strzelecki和Stuart Stony沙漠的旱地湖泊的考古学、景观历史和古环境进行首次详细调查。该项目使用最先进的方法，预计将发现新的考古遗址，为澳大利亚内陆提供新的气候记录，并开发创新的新分析和现场技术。预期的好处还包括开发新的尖端方法来调查澳大利亚沙漠景观，全面的基线数据，该地区如何演变之前，欧洲殖民化和解决为什么没有更新世的考古遗址已在该地区发现。
