Abstract

In this chapter we explore directionality and scale in social connectivity within the Antipodes. We do this through an examination of archaeological evidence for the growth of prehistoric globalization and the longevity of massive systems. Here we are concerned with social and economic connectedness; an interest in globalization as increased economic and social integration and inter-connectivity of communities across geographically large and varied areas (see Hodos 2010; Jennings 2011, this volume; Stek 2014; Tomlinson 1999; Versluys 2014; Feinman this volume; Knappett this volume). Our target in this chapter is to infer the scale of trends towards globalization of technology within prehistoric Australia.
