  • River avulsion after the Last Glacial Maximum led to the irreversible drying of what were permanent waterbodies during the period of early human arrival at Willandra Lakes, which accounts for the lack of pathways revealed by our model in this area.

    “In the case of Willandra Lakes, river avulsion after the Last Glacial Maximum led to the irreversible drying of what were permanent waterbodies during the period of early human arrival, which accounts for the lack of pathways revealed by our model in this area [48][49][50] .”

  • Excluding four Willandra Lakes sites, 84% of archaeological sites >30,000 y old (46 of 55 sites) are within 20 km of modern permanent water.

    “A connected network representing the least-cost distance between water bodies and graded according to terrain cost shows that 84% of archaeological sites >30,000 y old are within 20 km of modern permanent water.”

    From Humans, water, and the colonization of Australia (2016) · cites this paper as [38]

    The paper describes archaeological traces at Lake Mungo and the Willandra Lakes (section 627, lines 627–633), but does not report a survey of 55 sites or the claimed 84% within 20 km of modern permanent water. Searches for the figures and for a least-cost network or terrain-cost analysis found no passage addressing that result. (LLM, conf=0.77)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • Lake Mungo, within Mungo National Park, has been a focus area for researchers because Mungo Man and Mungo Lady were discovered in the Mungo lunette.

    “Furthermore, Lake Mungo, within Mungo National Park, has also been a focus area for researchers due to the discovery of Mungo Man and Mungo Lady in the Mungo lunette”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
