New evidence from East Timor contributes to our understanding of earliest modern human colonisation east of the Sunda Shelf

O'Connor, Sue·2007·Antiquity

Abstract

New dates by which modern humans reached East Timor prompts this very useful update of the colonisation of Island Southeast Asia. The author addresses all the difficult questions: why are the dates for modern humans in Australia earlier than they are in Island Southeast Asia? Which route did they use to get there? If they used the southern route, why or how did they manage to bypass Flores, where Homo floresiensis , the famous non- sapiens hominin known to the world as the ‘hobbit’ was already in residence? New work at the rock shelter of Jerimalai suggests some answers and new research directions.

  • The vast majority of excavations in Wallacea have been limited to one or two 1×1 m test pit excavations.

    “Furthermore, the vast majority of excavations in Wallacea have thus far been limited to just one or two 1 Â 1 m test pit excavations (e.g., O'Connor, 2007;O'Connor et al., 2010;Samper Carro et al., 2016;Hawkins et al., 2017;O'Connor et al., 2018a)”
  • The initial occupation date for Laili is only 0.3 ka outside of the calibrated range of Timor's second oldest site, Jerimalai, which is located at the island's eastern end.

    “The initial occupation date for Laili is only 0.3 ka outside of the calibrated range of Timor's second oldest site, Jerimalai (O'Connor, 2007), which is located at the island's eastern end.”

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.
