Description:	Maritime archaeology in Australasia has a long and proud tradition based firmly on the excellent, pioneering work of the Department of Maritime Archaeology at the Western Australian Maritime Museum over more than thirty years. Based on comprehensive national historic shipwreck legislation, the past twenty years or so has seen the development of strong and viable programs in other places and across a variety of organizations from cultural heritage agencies and National Parks Services to museums, universities and consultancy companies. Australian maritime archaeologists not only work in Australia but also have regularly luidertaken projects in collaboration with archaeologists, cultural heritage managers, museums and avocational groups throughout the Asia-Pacific region. Australian maritime archaeologists have also taken leading roles in the development of international guidelines such as the ICOMOS and UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage.
