Paul S.C. Taçon (born 1958) is an anthropologist and archaeologist who has spent over thirty years conducting field work in destinations ranging from Australia, Botswana, Cambodia, Canada, China, India, Malaysia, Myanmar, Thailand, South Africa and the USA. In 2011, he was appointed the first Chair in Rock Art research at Griffith University on the Gold Coast, Australia. Paul S.C. Taçon has made several key archaeological discoveries in Australia, most notably in western Arnhem Land (NT) and Wollemi National Park (NSW). These include the earliest rock art evidence of warfare in the world, the origins of the Rainbow Serpent, significant new Arnhem Land rock art sites, rock art discoveries in Wollemi National Park and the oldest rock paintings of Southeast Asian watercraft in Australia. ==Career== Paul S.C. Taçon received his MA in Anthropology from Trent University in 1984 and his PhD from the Australian National University in 1990. He was based at the Australian Museum in Sydney from 1991 to 2005, acting as a Principal Research Scientist in Anthropology from 1998 to 2005 and Head of the Museum's People and Place Research Centre from 1995 to 2003. In 2005, Paul S.C. Taçon joined Griffith University and has since led two ongoing research programs, "Picturing Change" and "Late Pleistocene Peopling of East Asia". He has pioneered the use of radiocarbon dating of beeswax rock art, and his research team was the first to use uranium-series direct dates for rock art in China. Currently, he is leading the use of innovative three-dimensional laser scanners to conserve vulnerable rock art sites.
