Dr Phillip Habgood is an Honorary Senior Fellow at the School of Social Science, University of Queensland. His research focuses on Pleistocene human evolution, rock art analysis, and prehistoric cultural behavior across Sahul (Australia/New Guinea) and broader regions. He collaborates extensively with institutions like the University of Queensland and international teams on archaeological projects.
- Key research areas: Rock art symbolism, Pleistocene human migration patterns, cultural evolution in Oceania, and lithic technology analysis.
- Publications span archaeological journals (e.g., Archaeology in Oceania) and edited volumes (e.g., Oxford Handbook of Rock Art Archaeology).
Recent work includes investigations into the Gilparrka Almira rock art site in Queensland, Bronze Age olive domestication in Jordan, and geochemical studies of Aboriginal silcrete sources. His research often integrates multidisciplinary approaches, combining archaeological fieldwork with morphological and geochemical analyses.
Notable contributions include challenging traditional models of 'modern human behavior' development and advancing understanding of cultural continuity in Sahul.
