9,000-year-old submerged sites off Australia reveal ancient stone artefacts

 Archaeologists collaborated with Indigenous rangers to explore submerged sites off Murujuga in Western Australia. They uncovered artefacts and evidence of past human activity before rising sea levels altered the landscape. Two key locations highlighted interactions with freshwater resources and elevated terrains. The research involved several universities and emphasized the importance of Indigenous expertise in cultural heritage. Archaeologists collaborated with Indigenous rangers to explore submerged sites off Murujuga in Western Australia.
