Raymond Dart Lecture series

The Raymond Dart Lecture is an annual ARCHE event, organised by Griffith Sciences, which pays tribute to one of Australia’s most celebrated palaeoanthropologists.

Born and raised in the Brisbane suburb of Toowong, Dart discovered the first fossil record of Australopithecus africanus—an extinct hominin closely related to humans—in 1924 in South Africa. His work, both in unearthing and analysing the remains, proved crucial in establishing Africa, not Europe, as the most likely origin of our species.

To celebrate his life and legacy, this lecture series presents some of the brightest minds and newest research in palaeoanthropology. It also provides a unique opportunity for academics in the field to connect and discuss their work.
