John Mulvaney Book Award, Australian Archaeological Association

Awarded best archaeological book for my 2022 publication "Building and Remembering: An Archaeology of Place-Making on Papua New Guinea's South Coast" with the University of Hawaii Press.

The John Mulvaney Book Award was established in 2004 in honour of John Mulvaney and his contribution and commitment to Australian archaeology over a lifetime of professional service. It was created to acknowledge the significant contribution of individual or coauthored publications to Australian archaeology, either as general knowledge or as specialist publications. Nominations are considered annually for books that cover both academic pursuits and public interest reflecting the philosophy of John Mulvaney’s life work.
