Primary Copyright Holder: La Trobe UniversitySummary
Complete suite of artefact datasets from the First Government House site, as upgraded for the Exploring the Archaeology of the Modern City project. It combines two datasets created for the main series of excavations from 1983 and 1987, and excavations in Young Street and Raphael Place in 1991. The data was originally created by teams working for Anne Bickford and Wendy Thorp.
