Description: Victoria and Tasmania showing the Bassian Plain filling as Sea Levels rise about 14,000 years ago. Some of the major archaeological sites of Pleistocene human occupation are shown indicating that human migration to Tasmania occurred probably between 35,000BP and 20,000BP. By about 12,000 BP Tasmania was isolated by the rising sea level. Port Philip was flooded between 8000 and 6000BP, the event being recorded within the oral traditions of the Kulin nation where Melbourne now stands.
