Share information about your fossil and artefact findings through the anonymous survey on the Macquarie University Found A Fossil site.
Sally Hurst, creator of the Found A Fossil research project writes, “In Australia, the laws protecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultural artefacts and sites, and fossils, varies between states and can be incredibly difficult to find, read, and understand. The laws are confusing, and often it is unclear what actions you are supposed to take if you do ever find something. Your responses and this data may be part of a movement to better improve understanding and accessibility of heritage laws, and increase our understanding of the best ways to communicate with different audiences. Ultimately, we hope that this research may help to better protect Australia’s incredible heritage material into the future.”
