Abstract

This report describes a recently obtained radiocarbon determination from the Nara Inlet 1 rockshelter site on Hook Island, off the Central Queensland coast. The new date was obtained in order to more clearly refine changes in stone artifact discard densities within the site as part of a wider technological study, centering on the South Molle Island quarry.
