Correction to: Early human occupation of Australia’s eastern seaboard (Scientific Reports, (2024), 14, 1, (2579), 10.1038/s41598-024-52000-y)

Correction to: Scientific Reportshttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-024-52000-y, published online 31 January 2024. Thomas Dooley was omitted from the author list in the original version of this Article. The Acknowledgements now reads: “This research has been made possible by the extraordinary dedication of the Quandamooka People to ensuring their cultural heritage is appropriately recognised and protected. The Quandamooka Yoolooburrabee Aboriginal Corporation (QYAC) team who oversaw this research was led by Chairperson Prof. Valerie Cooms, Joint Management Coordinator Darren Burns and Senior Cultural Heritage Coordinator Michael Costelloe. The authors of this paper are both honoured and privileged to assist the Quandamooka People in documenting their remarkable heritage. These results are the culmination of decades of study by three pioneering researchers, Archaeologists Rob Neal, Dr Richard Robins and Geomorphologist Dr Errol Stock. Together, they have laid a foundation for the scientific understanding of what is a complex, dynamic and internationally significant environmental and cultural landscape. Vital financial support for this research was provided by QYAC, the University of Queensland Faculty of Humanities and Social Science, Everick Foundation and the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service.” The Author contributions now reads: “RR and ES conceived the project. CC, KN and SA wrote the main text with specialist contributions from JK and ZJ. Figures by KN, CC, SA, PM and JK. CC, AF, KN, MC, DB, KM, TM and TS re-excavated WWC. SA, ZF, SL, MC, TS, KM and DB excavated MCA20. AF obtained funding for WWC and KM obtained funding for WWC and MCA20 excavation. TR contributed funding for WWC and MCA20 excavation and analyses. KN collected, prepared and measured the optical dating samples, and ZJ generated the optical ages at WWC. ZJ wrote the optical dating SI with assistance from KN. JK performed the optical dating at MCA20. CC analysed stone artefacts from WWC and MCA20. AF performed flotation and identified charcoal for radiocarbon dating from WWC. TM and TD conducted faunal analysis at WWC and MCA20. TS performed mollusc analysis from WWC and MCA20. KML performed GPR, magnetic gradiometry and magnetic susceptibility at WWC. MM identified heat treatment on silcretes from WWC and MCA20.” The original Article has been corrected.
