Funded Activity Summary
The Goldfields Water Supply Scheme: An archaeological study of regional development and society. This project investigates 19th and 20th century society along the Perth-Kalgoorlie settlement corridor following the Goldfields Water Supply Scheme (1897-1903). The APAI will conduct archaeological investigations (settlement survey and excavations and historical documentation analyses to address three questions: 1.) the hypothesis that regional settlement patterns were affected by the pipeline location and new mining and agricultural ventures; 2.) what can the archaeology tell us about the lives of those who settled alongside this industrial and regional development; and 3.) the extent of Aboriginal involvement with colonising non-Aboriginal people.Funded Activity Details
