This project aims to investigate prehistoric human population growth by documenting nursing behaviour, developmental stress, and fine-scaled climate variation directly from the teeth of ancient children. Knowledge of the nexus of early childhood growth and ecological variation will shed light on modern human health and fertility, which in turn impact planetary health. Outcomes will provide further insight into humanity’s unprecedented evolutionary success while augmenting multidisciplinary collaborative networks. This will further strengthen Australia’s pioneering role in the development of innovative technologies, and build key workforce capabilities of benefit for diverse fields such as public health and environmental science.

该项目旨在通过直接从古代儿童的牙齿记录护理行为、发育压力和精细气候变化来研究史前人类人口增长。了解幼儿成长和生态变化之间的关系将有助于了解现代人类的健康和生育能力，进而影响地球健康。结果将进一步深入了解人类前所未有的进化成功，同时增强多学科协作网络。这将进一步加强澳大利亚在创新技术开发方面的先锋作用，并培养造福公共卫生和环境科学等不同领域的关键劳动力能力。
