SUMMARY:AACAI WA Sundowner Seminar - Richard Fullagar and Judith Field
DESCRIPTION:AACAI’s WA Chapter are delighted to present a double-header of talks on grindstone classification and ancient starch residues from Richard Fullagar and Judith Field. \nClassification and Function of Grinding Stones \nRichard will discuss his work on the classification and function of grinding stones\, as articulated in the book (in progress) on Aboriginal ground stone implements. He will focus on a chapter about a convenient typology of ground stone implements for the Murray Darling Basin. Many of these implements have been assessed in studies of form\, function\, technology\, use wear and residues. There are about 25 tool types documented\, with morphological and functional variables\, in a classification system relevant to grinding stones being recorded in the Pilbara\, by the Desert to the Sea team. \nAn Introduction to Ancient Starch Residues and the potential for insights into past plant use \nJudith will present a basic introduction to the study of ancient starch (and perhaps other residues) related to use. Unlike pollen or photolith studies\, ancient starch\, where it is preserved\, can be quite challenging to identify and/or attribute to a plant taxa. Determining whether it is worth going down this track when evaluating a ground or flaked stone assemblage requires consideration of a variety of factors. In providing some insights to analysing starch  as a microfossil may help guide practitioners in deciding if it can be included in their research design. \n \nSeminar Details: \nMonday 17th February at 6pm \nThe Albion Hotel\, 535 Stirling Highway\, Cottesloe \nFood will be provided \nPlease make sure to book by Friday the 14th of February! We will not be accepting ticket payments at the venue \nAACAI Member* $10.00 \nStudent^ $10.00 \nGeneral Admission $18.00 \n*Must be a current financial member\n^Must book with a valid student email address \nAACAI WA is very grateful to the Desert to the Sea Project at the Centre for Rock Art Research + Management for supporting this event.
