Some of the material Gilroy touched on in Mysterious Australia (1995), but in this new, large-format volume he details more of the bigger picture that has both Australia and New Zealand settled in ages past by a megalithic people—whose writing might arguably be the world's first script—and visited by umpteen cultures in the last few thousand years. Rex, together with Heather, his wife and devoted co-fieldworker, has uncovered an incredible array of evidence suggesting that the Great South Land had been a mining colony for waves of ancient Aryans, Sumerians, Egyptians, Phoenicians, Celts, Amerindians, Chinese, Japanese, Romans, Arabs and Polynesians, long before the Europeans (the Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, French and British) found their way. The remnant artefacts, inscriptions, coins, sculp- tures, monuments and structures (including the so-called Gympie Pyramid) deserve to be studied seriously for their heritage value as well as for the revised historical perspec- tive they offer the world.
