- 1Type of evidence used to show changing environments- Rock types and fossils present in the rocks
- Palaeoclimates can be determined by comparing extinct species with closely related extant species and looking at fossils found at one site. - 2Palaeontological vs Geological evidencePalaeontological: Evidence derived from past life (e.g. fossils, paintings, built structures, footprints, etc)
Geological: Evidence derived from rocks, minerals, soils and other geological materials - 3Sites of Aboriginal rock paintings and/or rock engravings- Rock engraving (petroglyphs) in the Burrup Peninsula and Karlamilyi National Park in Western Australia
