    9 Maam ngawaala: biindu ngaawa nyanggan bindaayili. Language centres: keeping language strong Anna Ash, Pauline Hooler, Gary Williams and Ken Walker1 Abstract We begin by describing the history and main activities of Muurrbay Aboriginal Language and Culture Co-operative and Many Rivers Aboriginal Language Centre. Comments from Elders, language teachers and researchers are included to reflect the opinions of a diverse range of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people. We discuss some aspects of research, publishing, language education and information technology. Finally we make some recommendations for groups who are just starting out on this challenging but rewarding road. This volume was at least partially inspired by The green book of language revitalization in practice. There is a chapter in that book called ‘Diversity in Local Language Maintenance and Restoration: A Reason for Optimism’. It emphasises that there is a positive future for the revitalisation of Aboriginal languages: There is reason for optimism because local language communities all over the world are taking it upon themselves to act on behalf of their imperilled linguistic traditions in full understanding of, and in spite of, the realistic perception that the cards are stacked against them. There is, in effect an international movement in which local communities work in defiance of the forces pitted against their embattled languages. It has something of the character of a modern miracle, if you think about it – while they share the goal of promoting a local language, these groups are essentially independent of one another, coming together sometimes to compare notes, but operating in effective separation. Two factors in our optimism are the very existence of the movement itself and what is sometimes decried as a flaw in the movement: the feature of 1 All authors are from the Muurrbay Aboriginal Language and Culture Co-operative & Many Rivers Aboriginal Language Centre.

    Remembering Country History & Memories of Towarri National Park Sharon Veale Remembering Country Remembering Country History &Memories of Towarri National Park Written and compiled by Sharon Veale Foreword In 1997 the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service embarked on a program of research designed to help chart the path the Service would take in cultural heritage conservation over the coming years.The Towarri project, which is the subject of this book, was integral to that program, reflecting as it did a number of our key concerns.These included a concern to develop a landscape approach to cultural heritage conservation, this Published by the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service June 2001 stemming from a recognition that to a great extent the conventional Copyright © NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service ISBN 0 7313 6366 3 approach, in taking the individual heritage ‘site’ as its focus, lost the larger story of ‘people in a landscape’.

  • Areference Grammar of Gamilaraay, Northern New
    A REFERENCE GRAMMAR OF GAMILARAAY, NORTHERN NEW SOUTH WALES Peter Austin Department of Linguistics La Trobe University Bundoora. Victoria 3083 Australia first draft: 29th March 1989 this draft: 8th September 1993 2 © Peter K. Austin 1993 THIS BOOK IS COPYRIGHT. DO NOT QUOTE OR REPRODUCE WITHOUT PERMISSION Preface The Gamilaraay people (or Kamilaroi as the name is more commonly spelled) have been known and studied for over one hundred and sixty years, but as yet no detailed account of their language has been available. As we shall see, many things have been written about the language but until recently most of the available data originated from interested amateurs. This description takes into account all the older materials, as well as the more recent data. This book is intended as a descriptive reference grammar of the Gamilaraay language of north-central New South Wales. My major aim has been to be as detailed and complete as possible within the limits imposed by the available source materials. In many places I have had to rely heavily on old data and to ‘reconstitute’ structures and grammatical patterns. Where possible I have included comparative notes on the closely related Yuwaalaraay and Yuwaaliyaay languages, described by Corinne Williams, as well as comments on patterns of similarity to and difference from the more distantly related Ngiyampaa language, especially the variety called Wangaaypuwan, described by Tamsin Donaldson. As a companion volume to this grammar I plan to write a practically-oriented description intended for use by individuals and communities in northern New South Wales. This practical description will be entitled Gamilaraay, an Aboriginal Language of Northern New South Wales.

  • Introduced Diseases Among the Aboriginal People of Colonial Southeast Australia 1788-1900
    "A Great Deal of Sickness"1 Introduced diseases among the Aboriginal People of colonial Southeast Australia 1788-1900 Peter J. Dowling January 1997 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University, Canberra 1 Buttfield 1874 Except where otherwise stated in the text, this thesis represents my own original work. Peter J. Dowling For Dianne Saal na saol Tús gá deiredh Tá muid beo Dá deo Life of lives Beginning without an end We are alive To the end of time (Enya & Ryan 1987) Abstract Palaeopathological studies have sought to build up a picture of Australian Aboriginal health before European settlement in 1788, and epidemiological studies of Aboriginal health in the twentieth century are now legion. But, despite a growing body of literature on Aboriginal history in the intervening colonial period, this remains an under-studied period from the viewpoint specifically of Aboriginal health. This thesis is a contribution to filling that gap through an examination of documentary and skeletal evidence on the changing bio-medical situation experienced by Aboriginal populations of Southeast Australia from 1788 to 1900. This thesis examines one of the major biological components of this change - the diseases that were introduced into Australian Aboriginal populations during the process of colonisation. The epidemiology, timing, diffusion of diseases are considered with specific attention given to infectious and respiratory diseases that were responsible for causing major epidemics of morbidity and mortality.

  • Handbook of Ethnography
    Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2011 with funding from Wellesley College Library http://www.archive.org/details/handbookofethnogOOIeyb PUBLISHED ON THE LOUIS STERN MEMORIAL FUND HANDBOOK OF ETHNOGRAPHY BY JAMES G. LEYBURN Assistant Professor of the Science of Society in Yale University NEW HAVEN YALE UNIVERSITY PRESS LONDON . HUMPHREY MILFORD • OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS 1931 Copyright 1931 by Yale University Press Printed in the United States of America All rights reserved. This book may not be re- produced, in whole or in part, in any form, ex- cept by written permission from the publishers. n PREFACE In any science the study of simple factors aids in the comprehen- sion of the complex. Especially is this true in the study of human society, for modern phenomena are so complicated that they are all but incomprehensible except when viewed in the light of their evolution. Immediately upon his return to simpler societies, how- ever, the reader meets the names of peoples and tribes unfamiliar to him : he has but vague ideas as to the location of the Hottentots, the Veddahs, and the Yakuts ; yet the more deeply he pursues his studies, the more acutely he feels the needs of some vade mecum to tell him who these people are and where they live. This Handbook of Ethnography is designed not only for the trained ethnologist, who cannot be expected to retain in his mem- ory more than a fraction of the tribal names included herein, but for the students in allied fields—in anthropology, archaeology, the science of society (sociology), political science, and the like.

  • Pathways and Participation Opportunities for Indigenous Australians in Employment and Business Submission 38
    Indigenous Economic Pathways and Participation in the Hunter Region Submission to the Inquiry of the Standing Committee on Indigenous Affairs: Pathways and Participation Opportunities for Indigenous Australians in Employment and Business. 9th April 2020. The author recognises the rights, custodianship, and ongoing connection to country of the Traditional Owners of the lands known as the ‘Hunter Region’1 – the Awabakal, Darkinjung, Geawaegal, Gomeroi/Kamilaroi, Gringai, Wonnarua/Wannaruah, and Worimi. The author acknowledges elders past, present, and emerging, and all Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people in the Hunter Region. The author acknowledges that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are two distinct racial groups. For the purposes of this submission, the term “Indigenous” is used to acknowledge both groups. 1 For the purposes of this submission, the ‘Hunter Region’ is defined as the ‘Hunter Employment Region’ consisting of the functional economic region defined by the Australian Government as the linked labour force (SA4) areas of Newcastle & Lake Macquarie, and the Hunter excluding Newcastle. The author recognises that other definitions, such as the New South Wales Government definition of the region that incorporates the Mid-Coast Local Government Area, overlay other Traditional lands, such as that of the Biripi Nation.
