Prehistoric Society" in 1961 which still went against the general historic ideas with the new concept of culture to not be dismissed. Fromm’s landing has evolved into a training site for future archeologists to learn. Mulvaney worked on another site with Herbert Tindale which differed in societal and cultural succession from Fromm’s Landing meaning to understand time and stone tools, there needed to be more diverse measuring techniques.

As more archeological works began to be published, a problem arose to
Mulvaney. Aboriginal people became overshadowed from the European and historical ideals leading to "the lack of Aboriginal representation." This began his political activism journey and in Glenelg River, it was made clear of the

The start of
Mulvaney's fieldwork began at Fromm’s Landing in 1956. Returning to the site in 1958, his findings had challenged historical and anthropologists to accept Aboriginal history and archeological records. The excavation work was used to support the date people originated in Australia. He

Mulvaney worked on two shelters to accumulate more fieldwork in Victoria. The remains of an Aboriginal man were found in the upper deposit of the shelter which Mulvaney concluded to be a Gundbanud man in the 1840’s.
