 * The published wiki page has little to say about John Mulvaney's works in Australia and only about his legacy. My goal is to bring information of Kenniff Cave, Fromm's Landing, and his other sites in this article.
 * There is more information of John Mulvaney as a person, such as his date of birth and hometown. I want to add more about him as an archeologist and the special sites he worked on in Australia.
 * This article can be improved by detailing the kind of archeologist Mulvaney was, what his dating methods were and what his morals were around the Australian culture.

Edit - "Works" paragraph:

The start of Mulvaney's fieldwork began in Tungawa at Fromms Landing in 1956. Returning to the site in 1958, his findings had challenged historical and anthropologists to accept Aboriginal past. The excavation work was hoped to support the date people originated in Australia. He later wrote "Proceeding of the Prehistoric Society" in 1961 which still went against the general historic ideas. Mulvaney worked on another site in Tindale which differed in societal and cultural succession from Tungawa meaning to understand time and stone tools, there needed to be more diverse measuring techniques. As more archeological works began to be published, a problem arose to Mulvaney. Aboriginal people became overshadowed from the European and historical ideals leading to "the lack of Aboriginal representation." This began his political activism journey and in Glenelg River, it was made clear of the importance of stratified cave deposits to prorated the conservation of Aboriginal antiques.
