The CAR community

CAR brings together the internationally recognised research expertise of the Department of Archaeology and Natural History (ANH), Research School of Pacific and Asian Studies (RSPAS) in the ANU College of Asia and the Pacific (CAP), and the School of Archaeology and Anthropology (A&A), Faculty of Arts, ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences (CASS), with similarly acclaimed research in Quaternary geochronology based in the ANU radiocarbon laboratory and elsewhere in the Research

School of Earth Sciences (RSES) in the College of Science (COS). The establishment by the Australian National University in October 1999 of the Centre for Archaeological Research (CAR) consolidates previous resources in Archaeology and Palaeoanthropology at the ANU. CAR brings together the expertise of teaching and research staff in Archaeology and Palaeoanthropology at the ANU, within a single coordinating framework.
