This project aims to recover all the genetic information from four ancient humans. Two of these iconic specimens come from Australia and two from Malaysia. We will sequence the entire DNA (genomes) and proteins (proteome) of Mungo Man (Willandra), the Yidinji King (Cairns), the Deep Skull (Borneo) and the Bewah specimen (Malaysian Peninsula). This will provide a better understanding of the settlement of Australia and new knowledge about the ancient people of Australasia and their relationship to other human populations worldwide. The research will use cutting-edge methods of DNA and protein sequencing of ancient human material and will provide critical reference genomes / proteomes that will anchor future research.

该项目旨在恢复四个古代人类的所有遗传信息。其中两个标志性的标本来自澳大利亚，两个来自马来西亚。我们将对蒙戈人（威兰德拉）、伊丁吉王（凯恩斯）、深头骨（婆罗洲）和贝瓦标本（马来西亚半岛）的整个DNA（基因组）和蛋白质（蛋白质组）进行测序。这将使人们更好地了解澳大利亚的定居点，并对澳大拉西亚的古代人民及其与世界各地其他人口的关系有新的了解。这项研究将使用DNA和蛋白质测序的古代人类材料的尖端方法，并将提供关键的参考基因组/蛋白质组，将锚未来的研究。
