Note 01Capricorn Caves
Evidence begins in place
Nothing here starts in a collection or a display case. It starts as a surface, a deposit or a signal in a specific location, recorded before it is moved or interpreted.
Observation
Field evidence
Field notes for moving from curiosity to observation.
Note 02Capricorn Caves
What scientists observe
Position, layering, condition and context. Where something sits relative to the material around it often carries as much information as the object itself.
Note 03Capricorn Caves
What visitors can notice
Changes in air, light, texture and sound. Where the floor changes underfoot. Where a wall shows layering. Where the space narrows and the cave feels different.
Note 04Capricorn Caves
What remains hidden without interpretation
Timescale, sequence and relationship. Most of what makes a cave significant is invisible until someone explains what the surfaces are recording.
Interpretation here is general. Site-specific findings require partner confirmation.
