NORTHERN AUSTRALIAN OFFSHORE ISLAND USE DURING THE HOLOCE'NE: The Archaeology of Vanderlin Island, Sir Edward Pellew Group, Gulf of Carpentaria Robin SimI and Lynley A. Wallis2 Abstract This paper presents an overview of archaeological investigations in the Sir Edward Pellew Islands in the southwest Gulf of Carpentaria, northern Australia, It is argued that Vanderlin Island, like the majority of Australia's offshore islands, attests to a lacuna in human habitation for several thousand years afterthe marine transgression and consequent insulation c.6700 years ago. With the imminent threat of inundation, people appear to have retreated to higher land, abandoning the peripheral exposed shelf areas; subsequent (re)colonisation of these relict shelf areas in their form as islands took place steadily from c.4200 Bp, with increased intensity of occupation after 1300 BP. Possible links between the timing of island occupation, watercraft technology and the role of climate change are investigated, with more recent o ~~200BP 10ln.m • ~f*\04200BP' o _ changes in the archaeological record of Vanderlin Island also examined in light of cultural contact with Macassans.

  • 8 'We Always Look North': Yanyuwa Identity and the Maritime Environment
    8 ‘We always look north’: Yanyuwa identity and the maritime environment John J. Bradley I look across the expanse of the open sea: The high waves in the north are at last calm. (Short Friday Babawurra) The short piece of song-poetry given above was composed by a Yanyuwa ‘saltwater man’ while surveying the sea that he wished to travel upon. His descendants sang this and other song during the 1940s, 50s and 60s while working on cattle stations on the vast, wind-blown Barkly Tablelands and others, to remind them of the sea country which was there waiting for them. Today the Yanyuwa people live in and around the township of Borroloola some 1000 kilometres southeast of Darwin, and some 60 kilometres inland from the sea (Figure 8:1). Despite the effects of enforced relocation to provide a part of the labour force on the cattle stations and issues arising from various welfare polices, the sea has remained as an important point of identity for the Yanyuwa people. It was Stanner (1965) who commented that within the anthropo- logical literature there had been far too much emphasis on the inland Central Australian arid zone, primarily because it was perceived that the Aboriginal people of such areas had been isolated for the longest period of time from European influence, and therefore their social pat- terns and economies were felt to be still among the most traditional in Australia. There have been few major studies undertaken where the resources and environments of the coastal people of northern Australia 201 Customary marine tenure in Australia have been explored.

  • Fishing the Mcarthur River and Sir Edward Pellew Islands Guide
    FISHING THE MCARTHUR RIVER AND SIR EDWARD PELLEW ISLANDS WELCOME TO COUNTRY The Yanyuwa Traditional Owners of this area welcome you to our country. We ask that you respect and recognise the cultural importance of our land and waters when you are here. Many of our stories are told and our knowledge is held in the form of Kujika or song lines, and these narratives travel across both land and sea. They identify places and events of particular cultural and environmental significance as well as defining how people should relate to kin and country. There are also many cultural heritage sites – mostly of Macassan origin – on the islands and mainland as well as a number of Yanyuwa families who still live and work on land and over sea. We request that all visitors work with us to help preserve these important historical places and to ensure that our rights of occupation and to privacy, are respected and adhered to. Our senior people are also concerned for your safety and wellbeing, so if you are uncertain of where you can go and what you can do, please contact our Ranger Unit for advice Ph 08 8975 8777. CODE OF CONDuct RESPect THE RIGHTS OF TRADITIONAL OWNERS AND ABORIGINAL communITIES. Recognise the cultural and spiritual attachment Aboriginal people have to their land and water. • Respect Aboriginal cultural ceremonies. This may mean that a particular area is temporarily closed to access. • Be courteous to other water users and those who belong to the local Aboriginal community. • Do not land ashore without first obtaining a separate Aboriginal land permit, from the Northern Land Council.

Islands are increasingly used to protect endangered populations from the negative impacts 23 of invasive species. Quarantine efforts are particularly likely to be undervalued in 24 circumstances where a failure incurs non-economic costs. One approach to ascribe value 25 to such efforts is by modeling the expense of restoring a system to its former state.
