Corioli Souter

I am a Curator at the Department of Maritime Archaeology at the Western Australian Museum, an adjunct lecturer at UWA and a Phd candidate at the Alfred Deakin Institute, Deakin University.

I have taken part in over 40 archaeological research projects with some of the most memorable being the survey of a 3rd century CE Roman Bridge in the Netherlands; the excavation and survey of a 6th century BC wreck site in Turkey; the survey of the British sloop HMS Swift in Argentina and the remote sensing search for WWII vessel HMAS Vampire in Sri Lanka.

Over the last few years, I have developed exhibition projects including ‘Immerse: Exploring the Deep’ (2011), ‘Lustre: Pearling and Australia’ (2015) and ‘Travellers and Traders in the Indian Ocean World’ (2016), a collaboration with the British Museum.
