The project aims to investigate one of Australia’s most extraordinary bodies of rock art, spread across Arnhem Land’s Wellington Range, in order to answer important archaeological research questions, provide Traditional Owners with a comprehensive digital record of their rock art heritage and develop a long term management plan. Field research will include survey, 2-D and 3-D rock art recording, limited excavation and sampling for dating. The project is designed to situate Wellington Range rock art in regional and global contexts in order to better understand long-term north Australian Aboriginal experience and its expression in relation to other hunter-gatherer groups and to gain new insight into human cultural and cognitive development.

该项目旨在调查澳大利亚最非凡的岩石艺术之一，遍布阿纳姆地的惠灵顿山脉，以回答重要的考古研究问题，为传统业主提供岩石艺术遗产的全面数字记录，并制定长期管理计划。实地研究将包括调查，2-D和3-D岩石艺术记录，有限的挖掘和取样测年。该项目旨在从区域和全球的角度研究惠灵顿山脉的岩石艺术，以便更好地了解澳大利亚北部土著人的长期经验及其与其他狩猎采集群体的关系，并对人类文化和认知发展有新的认识。
