What evidence of early human settlement has been found on the Nullarbor Plain?

Archaeological discoveries on the Nullarbor Plain provide evidence that human life was present in the region approximately 34,000 years ago.1

A significant site within this area is Koonalda Cave, which is recognized as an important archaeological location for understanding early human activity on the plain. While other parts of Australia have yielded evidence of even earlier habitation, these findings on the Nullarbor Plain remain a key record of the long-standing presence of Aboriginal peoples in the region prior to European colonization.21
