Professor Len Collard from The University of Western Australia said the staff and students were at a site on Rottnest learning about the Indigenous history of the island when one of the students uncovered a sparkling object.
“Imagine our excitement when we realised it was a rare glass spearhead that is at least 100 years old. It’s not every day that you uncover an artefact of this significance,” Professor Collard said.
