Chris Urwin - Indigenous Studies Centre

Biography Dr Chris Urwin is conducting archaeological and museums-based research in partnership with First Peoples communities to investigate their remarkable landscapes in Australia and Papua New Guinea (PNG). He completed his PhD in 2019, for which he worked with two villages in Orokolo Bay (PNG) to establish radiocarbon chronologies for their ancestral sites, alongside a programme to document local oral traditions. This research has helped improve our understanding of the history of exchange and social change on PNG s south coast.  Chris research interests include: how Indigenous communities understand colonial-era collecting practices; how people build places through time and remember this process; and the application of Bayesian chronological models in archaeology.
