SUMMARY:Meet the Artefacts
DESCRIPTION:Do you want to know more about the finds from the Cross River Rail project?  \nJoin us as we explore these finds in greater detail and provide casts of real artefacts that visitors can hold and interact with\, as they hear the stories of these items from the past. \nWe also welcome special guest\, Queensland Museum’s Archaeology Curator Nicholas Hadnutt as he talks through an introduction to Archaeology\, what he does as a Curator\, the Archaeology processes and why the Cross River Rail finds are so important. Nicholas will also be available to answer any questions participants may have.  \nRecommended for all ages. \nMEET NICHOLAS HADNUTT\nNick is the Archaeology curator in Queensland Museum’s Cultures and Histories Program\, responsible for researching\, curating and sharing the Museum’s archaeology collections. Nick joined the Museum as a volunteer and enjoyed a number of Museum roles before joining the Archaeology program as a Curator in 2015. Since this appointment\, Nick has significantly increased the size of the historical archaeology collections with strategic acquisitions of assemblages associated with Queensland’s convict past\, boom and busts and life in Brisbane during the 19th century. \nNick’s research specialisation is historical archaeology and his interests include the changing role of museums since their inception\, 19th and 20th century material culture and how it reflects Queensland’s changing cultural landscape and the application of digital technology to cultural heritage recording and interpretation. Nick is currently working across multiple large-scale projects including recording lived Indigenous experiences under the Native Mounted Police\, Brisbane’s history as revealed through the Cross River Rail project and 3D scanning and recording of museum artefacts. In addition\, Nick has recently spent multiple field seasons excavating and analysing finds from Ravenswood\, a central Queensland gold mining town\, in order to better understand the choices people made when living in a frontier town in the late 19th century.

SUMMARY:Palaeontology with Dr Andrew Rozefelds
DESCRIPTION:Palaeontology is the study of ancient life\, whether it’s prehistoric plants\, dinosaurs\, fungi\, or any other animal from the ancient past!  \nTo celebration National Archaeology Week we have invited Queensland Museum’s Head of Geosciences and Principal Curator in Paleobotany\, Dr Andrew Rozefelds to present on studying the origins\, evolution and history of the modern Australian flora and what this means for big projects like Cross River Rail. \nJoin Dr Andrew during this educational webinar to get a more in-depth knowledge on Palaeontology as he explains more about this fascinating field and helps us understand how organisms have changed over time and the exciting finds we have found during the Cross River Rail excavations\, like Jurassic Bark which you can find out more details on our Facebook page. \nOn the day\, you can visit our Archaeology and History page to view the webinar.  \nMEET DR ANDREW ROZEFELD \nPrincipal Curator Geosciences\, Queensland Museum & Adjunct Associate Professor\, Central Queensland University  \nAndrew Rozefelds is the Principal Curator Geosciences Program in the Queensland Museum and Adjunct Associate Professor\, Central Queensland University. Queensland has been the centre of some amazing fossil discoveries in recent years. It seems\, every few months\, another amazing fossil is discovered and the team of staff\, honoraries and volunteers at the Museum are often at the cutting edge of these discoveries.  \nAndrew’s research interests are varied but a central focus has been on the history and evolution of Australia’s rainforests through the study of both living and fossil plants. Andrew has written over 90 peer-reviewed and popular articles. He has described over 14 new species of living plants and a similar number of fossil plants.  \nWhy study the fossil plant record? The North Queensland rainforests have plants whose lineages can be traced back to when dinosaurs were running around Western Queensland. Many of the plants evolved in Australia so the fossil record provides a unique insight into the history and evolution of the modern Australian flora. The fossil plant record has changed dramatically\, over time\, in response to changing climates\, so study of the fossil record can also help us to predict and understand the likely environmental impacts of climate change in the future.  \nHis recent research has resulted in the description of a new fossil sea scorpion (eurypterid) from Queensland\, which also happens to be the last one known from anywhere in the world. With colleagues from universities in Australia and a researcher at Kew Gardens\, UK he has also competed research describing a fossil Pandanus fruit from Queensland which is the oldest evidence of this group of plants.  \nOn the day\, you can access the livestream on our YouTube channel.
