Despite the acknowledged National Heritage significance of the Dampier Archipelago's petroglyphs and stone features, there has been little research which assists in knowing when, why and how this art was produced. This landscape was occupied and art was produced both before and after sea level rise c.8-6,000 years ago. Developing a reliable chronology of occupation will allow a reconstruction of the role that art played in land-use systems of the Archipelago and adjacent Abydos Plain. This aims to be achieved by targeting and analysing landscapes associated with the earliest art of the Archipelago. The second aim is to explore contemporary social connections to this place back to first contact with historical seafarers and colonial settlers.

尽管丹皮尔群岛的岩画和石头特征被公认为国家遗产，但很少有研究能帮助我们了解这些艺术是何时、为何以及如何产生的。在大约8- 6000年前海平面上升前后，这片土地被占领，艺术作品被创作出来。制定一个可靠的职业年表将允许重建艺术在群岛和邻近的阿比多斯平原的土地利用系统中所起的作用。这一目标是通过定位和分析与群岛最早的艺术相关的景观来实现的。第二个目标是探索这个地方的当代社会联系，回到与历史上的海员和殖民定居者的第一次接触。
