Abstract

In recent years there has been a sharp increase in interest in the archaeology of Northwest Queensland. The area has hitherto been neglected by archaeologists due to both the prohibitive cost of fieldwork and the coastal orientation of archaeological questions in Australia. The following summary is presented to inform QAR readers of the work that has been undertaken in the area and that which is still in progress. The geographical area of concern here is the extensive arid and semi-arid landscape west of the Great Divide and north of the tropic of Capricorn. Much of this area is subject to the market seasons that typify the climate of tropical northern Australia.
