Aedeen Cremin PhD is an archaeology professor at the University of Canberra. Specializing in landscape archaeology, her research also investigates Australia's industrial heritage of mining and metallurgy. During the 2010's Cremin turned her focus towards the Angkor Wat complex in Cambodia for the Greater Angkor Project.

Education

Cremin earned her Bachelor's and Master's degrees in archaeology from University College Dublin, National University of Ireland. She then went on to get her PhD in archaeology at the University of Sydney in 1978.

Career

Starting in the 1980s Cremin taught at the University of Sydney as a Tenured Senior Lecturer. There she provided instruction in archaeology and Celtic Studies for over twenty years. During this time she completed The Vinhais Survey on landscape archaeology in North Portugal.

After retiring, Cremin taught archaeology at the Australian National University and world history at the Daniel Horne Institute of Cultural Heritage, University of Canberra.

During the years 2001-2010, Cremin served as Visiting Fellow at the Australian National University.

The Growth of an Industrial Valley: Lithgow, New South Wales AEDEEN CREMIN The archaeology of Lithgow reveals some inconsistencies in the spatial patterning and physical fabric of the town. Upon investigation the variations from the expected pattern can be seen to relate to the personalities of the entrepreneurs. Some saw a profitable investment. Others, imbued with a spirit of 'colonial nationalism, saw it as the arsenal of Fortress Australia. Such attitudes affected the choice and the location of specific industries. We cannot see any structural manipulation of space, such as that recently described at Lowell, Massachussetts, 'designed both to serve the needs of industry and to accommodate America's image of itself as an agrarian republic',1 but perceive instead a quasi-random location of industry, determined by ad hoc alliances and political allegiances which may have their origin quite outside Lithgow itself. The relics of housing similarly exhibit an inconsistent pattern. They are visibly over-represented in certain chronological periods, under-represented in others. Here too, personalities have to be taken into account: some employers had no interest in housing their workers, some had paternalist views and created housing development, others sold land to get some return on a disappointing investment. This paper presents the growth of Lithgow and the creation of its archaeological record within a framework of industrial growth and decline, expressed in a series of phases, pre-industrial (1839-1868), early industrial (1869-1880), expansion (1881-1890), consolidation (1891-1915), limitation of growth and decline (1916-1939).
