This December AQUA is celebrating 40 years of 'Quaternary Australasia', our twice-yearly journal which publishes all things Quaternary. The call for submissions just opened, and the editors are encouraging submissions that celebrate 40 years of the magazine - which promped me to go and flick through the first issue, which tuns out to be a bumper edition detailing how Australian Quaternarists had lobbied Fraser to protect the Franklin!

Happy that the report I co-authored on the demographics of the Australasian quaternary community has been published in the current edition of Quaternary Australasia. It was kind of a bummer to write, but if we don't document these things we won't know if things are getting better.

Australian underwater archaeology is booming right now. New site discovered in #Murujuga found to be ~9 000 years old - "It goes to show that our culture and our connection to this country hasn't been severed and we still got it today."
