LEADING ABORIGINAL ARCHAEOLOGY PRACTITIONERS

ABORIGINAL
ARCHAEOLOGY


With over 11 years of experience and a network of community contacts across New South Wales, Artefact is renowned for our careful, considerate and comprehensive work in Aboriginal archaeology.

We have proven ability to work across large and complex project areas, and within numerous layers of legislation, regulations and guidelines. Our team also consistently consults with local Aboriginal knowledge holders, and we regularly complete our fieldwork in partnership with Registered Aboriginal Parties and Native Title holders.

Our skills include researching, locating, surveying, assessing and documenting Aboriginal sites. We also excel at systematic excavation and meticulous analysis of any Aboriginal artefacts that we recover. Artefact has demonstrated expertise in accurate sensitivity mapping of Aboriginal sites and places, and we can deliver GIS files in formats that integrate with your systems.
