Abstract
From 15 November 1987, to 11 January 1988, Aboriginal, Macassan and European sites were documented throughout Gurig National Park, Cobourg Peninsula, Northern Territory. Gurig is an area both archaeologically rich and diverse but because of its relative remoteness and the inaccessibility of many sites little in detail is known of its prehistory. In this paper an overview of the region's occupation is presented and its future research potential is assessed.Keywords
