Fire Histories and Rainforest Aboriginal Archaeology in the Wet Tropics Bioregion, North Queensland

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, Volume 60, Issue 3, Page 234-269, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Unlike the dominant Australian savanna‐sclerophyll vegetation, tropical rainforests do not burn easily. Any evidence of fire in Australian rainforests therefore invites explanations of its source. Analysis of 187 radiocarbon dates that include selected charcoal fragments from 23 soil pits and 7 archaeological sites from the Wet Tropics ...
