Editing Canning Stock Route (section)

===Rock art project===
There are a large number of Aboriginal rock paintings and carvings along the stock route. As more and more people visit the area each year, custodians of the Western Desert have become concerned about the protection and management of Aboriginal sites along the route. In 2007, researchers from the Australian National University began a project to draw up the first comprehensive plan of management for the entire Canning Stock Route.<ref>[http://info.anu.edu.au/mac/Newsletters_and_Journals/ANU_Reporter/095PP_2008/_02PP_Autumn/_canning.asp Road to somewhere, ANU Reporter, Autumn 2008]</ref> The project aimed to develop a series of modules to inform detailed guides and signs for visitors, while also protecting sites that have special significance for Indigenous peoples.<ref>[http://rsh.anu.edu.au/rockart/index.php/associated-projects Canning Stock Route Project: Rock art and Jukurrpa (ARC Linkage)] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110407213942/http://rsh.anu.edu.au/rockart/index.php/associated-projects |date=7 April 2011 }} Rock Art Research Centre, [[Australian National University]].</ref><ref>[http://csr.anu.edu.au Canning Stock Route Rock art and Jukurrpa: cultural heritage and environmental management] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110409114317/http://csr.anu.edu.au/ |date=9 April 2011 }}</ref>
