By providing important new data on the initial dispersal of Homo sapiens from Africa to Australia via Arabia and India, this project will improve our knowledge of the time-depth of cultural connections between indigenous Australians and other societies. It will provide a long-term perspective on the impact of climate change on hunter-gatherer communities, and will contribute to NRP Safeguarding Australia by increasing our understanding of cultures in Arabia and India. Technical advances made in this study will benefit researchers worldwide, increase capacity for commercial services, and enhance Australia's international standing in the geosciences. We will also train high-quality research students and create new collaborative initiatives.

通过提供关于智人最初从非洲经阿拉伯半岛和印度扩散到澳大利亚的重要新数据，该项目将增进我们对澳大利亚土著人与其他社会之间文化联系的时间深度的了解。它将为气候变化对狩猎采集社区的影响提供一个长期的视角，并将通过增加我们对阿拉伯和印度文化的了解，为NRP保护澳大利亚做出贡献。这项研究取得的技术进步将使全世界的研究人员受益，提高商业服务能力，并提高澳大利亚在地球科学领域的国际地位。我们还将培养高质量的研究生，并创造新的合作计划。
