History of Anthropology Newsletter 39.1 (June 2012) / 3 1 The Utilization of Truganini’s Human Remains in Colonial Tasmania Antje Kühnast, University of New South Wales, [email protected] Between 1904 and 1947, visitors to the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery in Hobart who stepped into the Aboriginal exhibition room were instantly confronted with the death of their colony’s indigenous population—or so they were led to believe. Their gaze encountered a glass case presenting the skeleton of “Truganini, The Last Tasmanian Aboriginal” (advertisement, June 24, 1905). Also known as “Queen Truganini” at her older age, representations of her reflect the many, often contradictory, interpretations of her life and agency in colonial Tasmania. She has been depicted as selfish collaborator with the colonizer, savvy savior of her race, callous resistance fighter, promiscuous prostitute who preferred whites instead of her “own” men (e.g. Rae-Ellis, 1981), and “symbol for struggle and survival” (Ryan, 1996). -

Purpose and process of Regulatory Impact Statement When a Council seeks to make a new or significant By-law amendment, the Local Government Act 1993, requires that a Regulatory Impact Statement (RIS) be prepared. The preparation of an RIS requires Council to analyse the most efficient and effective options available to address a particular issue. The RIS is also required to identify whether the benefits provided by the new By-law outweigh the costs of any restrictions on competition or the potential adverse impacts on business. This requires an assessment of direct and indirect social, economic and environmental impacts of the proposed By-law and the alternatives considered. The Local Government Act 1993, under Section 156A, requires that, once the RIS has been prepared, Council must submit it to the Director of Local Government, Department of Premier and Cabinet for assessment. If the Director is satisfied that the RIS meets the statutory requirements, he or she will issue a certificate to that effect and Council may then commence the public consultation process. -

DARRYL WILCOX Darryl Wilcox Was Born in Hobart on 4Th September
DARRYL WILCOX Darryl Wilcox was born in Hobart on 4th September 1946 and has lived most of his life at Huonville where he and Maureen have recently moved back again this year. During his long and illustrious career Darryl has raced a number of Holdens, from FX to his recently sold Monaro, most of which have appeared in the familiar Wilcox Blue. First race was at Hillwood Hillclimb in 1963 where he went to watch fellow Huon Valley resident Ian Smith run his Cooper S and ended up having a couple of runs himself. This was followed shortly afterwards by a run at the Domain Hillclimb. At this time in life Darryl’s main sporting interest was as a player for the Huonville Football Club. His football career came to an abrupt end when he was knocked unconscious in the 1963 Grand Final and as a result he never played again. Darryl’s first race meeting was at Baskerville in late 1963 where he managed to circulate without embarrassing himself. Shortly afterwards, after driving up to Orford with a mate in a fast early model Holden, he ended up with a broken leg after a road accident which on the way home. The accident put him out of action for twelve months. It was during his recuperation whilst staying with an Aunty in Hobart that he discovered in an outside shed a tin of what was to become the Wilcox Racing colour. Racing locally for a couple of years Darryl became a contender for honours among the early models as he built up his racing skills. -

The Man and the Woman and the Edison Phonograph: Race, History and Technology Through Song
AJE: Australasian Journal of Ecocriticism and Cultural Ecology, Vol. 1, 2011/2012 ASLEC-ANZ The Man and the Woman and the Edison Phonograph: Race, History and Technology Through Song BRUCE WATSON, Songwriter Victoria As a child I was fascinated by this photograph. The elderly, dignified Aboriginal woman singing into a large brass horn attached to an Edison phonograph, while a distinguished gentleman dusts the loose wax off the cylinder with a fine brush. The photo was taken on 10 October 1903 at Barton Hall in Sandy Bay, a suburb of Hobart, Tasmania. The woman is Fanny Cochrane Smith. The man is Horace Watson. Fig. 1 Fanny Cochrane Smith and Horace Watson Source: Personal collection, Bruce Watson But it wasn’t until, as an adult, I saw the photo in the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery that I realised just how extraordinary it is. Tasmania’s and Australia’s history reverberate through it. It is the story of cultural contact, genocide and reconciliation, of tradition and modernity. And it is the act of folklore collection at its most poignant. This is the story of these two people, their lives and their legacies. It is also the story of the legacy of the event depicted in the photograph and its meanings beyond these two people. The woman in the photo is Fanny Cochrane, born in Wybalenna on Flinders Island in early December 1834. The Aboriginal settlement (originally ‘Pea Jacket Point’) was renamed Wybalenna, meaning ‘Black Man’s houses’ (Plomley 65), and by 1834 there was an indigenous population of ‘about one hundred and thirty men, women and children’ (Plomley 75). -

Tasmanian Aboriginality at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery
Article Type: Original Article Corresponding author mail-id: [email protected] “THIS EXHIBITION IS ABOUT NOW”: Tasmanian Aboriginality at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery Christopher Berk UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN ABSTRACT This article focuses on the design and execution of two exhibits about Tasmanian Aboriginality at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery. The first is a Tasmanian Aboriginal group exhibit from 1931, which was heavily informed by ideologies of Tasmanian primitivity and extinction. The second is the 2008 tayenebe, a celebration of the resurgence of fiber work among Tasmanian Aboriginal women. In each instance, the Tasmanian Aboriginal people are on display, but the level of community control and subtext is notably different. This article builds on discussions of cultural revitalization and reclamation by showing the process and how it is depicted for public consumption. [cultural revitalization, representation, indigeneity, Tasmania, Australia] Australia’s Aboriginal peoples have been central to how anthropologists have historically thought about progress and difference. Tasmania’s Aboriginal peoples receive less attention, both in Australia and in discussions of global indigenous movements. Before and after their supposed extinction in 1876, they were considered the most “primitive” culture ever documented (Darwin 2004; Stocking 1987; Tylor 1894; among many others). Ideologies of primitivism have historically been perpetuated and disseminated by cultural institutions around the world. James Clifford (1997) recounts a 1989 community consultation meeting with Tlingit representatives at the Portland Museum of Art during which the Tlingit Author Manuscript people told politically motivated tales about community concerns like land rights.
