Carmel Schrire chronicles the deep human history of the Alligator Rivers area in the Northern Territory, drawing on archaeological excavation, faunal analysis, and ecological data to reconstruct thousands of years of Aboriginal occupation and adaptation. The work argues that the interplay between shifting environmental conditions — including dramatic changes in sea levels and wetland formation — and human subsistence strategies shaped the distinctive cultural landscape of western Arnhem Land. Written with scholarly precision yet accessible depth, it illustrates how prehistoric communities responded dynamically to one of the world's most complex and resource-rich environments. This foundational text remains essential reading for students and researchers in Australian prehistory, archaeology, and human ecology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48826062536923,"sku":"2026200006261-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/565eecbb-fabe-43be-a1b4-08ce4d6dee36.png?v=1780311850","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200006261-secondhand-the-alligator-rivers-prehistory-and-ecology-in-western-arnhem-land","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
