This Project will expand our understanding of Aboriginal settlement and land-use in north-west Australia by investigating how the mythological narratives of Australia’s deserts enable the transmission of knowledge in water-limited environments. Combining traditional ecological knowledge and novel scientific approaches (e.g. anthracology, remote sensing, oxygen-isotopes) will provide new insights into human behaviours at rock art site complexes. It will develop management regimes and formal certification for Indigenous rangers while building heritage capacity in these partner communities: enabling intergenerational, culturally appropriate knowledge transfer protocols are in place to ensure sustainable economic heritage futures.

该项目将通过调查澳大利亚沙漠的神话故事如何能够在水资源有限的环境中传播知识，来扩大我们对澳大利亚西北部土著定居点和土地使用的了解。将传统的生态学知识和新的科学方法(例如，煤炭学、遥感、氧同位素)相结合，将为人类在岩石艺术遗址复合体中的行为提供新的见解。它将为土著护林员制定管理制度和正式认证，同时在这些伙伴社区建设遗产能力：使代际之间、文化上适当的知识转让议定书到位，以确保可持续的经济遗产未来。
