Abstract
"Maritime archaeology in Australia today is a marginalised subject. This is despite a good professional publications record, an established international reputation (largely as a result of the work done in Western Australia) and, most recently, a series of successful AIMA conferences. In this paper I am going to concentrate on the relationship between maritime archaeology and the general public rather than with special interest groups with particular needs such as SCUBA divers. In particular I am going to concentrate on providing public access to maritime archaeology through temporary and travelling museum displays."
