A STUNNING archaeological discovery at Brighton [Tasamania] could change scientific understanding of human occupation.
The discovery of artefacts that could be among the oldest in the world has prompted the State Government to consider adding a multi-million-dollar bridge to its Brighton bypass plans.
In a new development set to rock the scientific world, the artefacts found in the path of the proposed bypass could be twice as old as previously thought.
The discovery of the remains, that preliminary estimates show could be at least 40,000 years old, would give the scientific world a unique glimpse of a previously unknown period of human occupation this far south on the planet.
