The 10th World Archaeological Congress (WAC-10) held in Darwin, Australia, from June 22–28, 2025 was hosted by Flinders University in partnership with the Northern Institute at Charles Darwin University. It brought together over 2,000 participants from all over the world. The academic sessions were rich and diverse, covering themes like “Gender, Women’s Ancestral Knowledge,” “Interactive Media in Heritage,” and “Archaeologies of the Tropics”, “Dialogues in Landscape Archaeology.” Keynotes and panels featured Indigenous leaders and global scholars, challenging us to rethink heritage, restitution, and the role of archaeology in a changing world. Beyond the lectures, the cultural festival was a feast for the senses. We experienced performances by Aboriginal artists, storytelling sessions, and hands-on workshops that celebrated over 65,000 years of Indigenous knowledge.
