Working in difficult logistical conditions and encountering large concentrations of cultural materials to 1.4m below the ground surface, Biosis archaeologists, in partnership with traditional owners have taken valuable steps in the chronological and behavioural reconstruction of Aboriginal occupation in the region during a time of great environmental upheaval.

Biosis will now turn its attention to further research into the significance of the findings, including radiometric dating of the archaeological deposits, followed by publication of its results. Importantly, the findings have contributed greatly to the methodological approaches of future investigations in the Cranbourne Sands, as well as our understanding of the area's archaeology.
