Retrieved 11 May The most famous battle took place in at Windjana Gorge between the Bunuba and 30 police officers, with Ellemarra killed and Jandamarra badly injured. On one of their patrols in the Napier Range Police Constable Richardson and Jandamarra captured a large group of Bunuba , Jandamarra's kinsmen and women. Cultural dispersal and environmental vandalism in the Murray-Darling Basin. Aboriginal people were in awe of Pigeon, a man of magical powers who could "fly like a bird and disappear like a ghost". To avoid retribution, he went to live at Lillimooloora station where he developed a strong friendship with settler Bill Richardson. Two of the men were killed, [1] with their guns and ammunition captured. His close but uneasy friendship with Richardson came to a dramatic end when he shot Richardson, set the group free, stole weapons and then disappeared. Browse People:. More on:.

Patrick Bernard O'leary and the Forrest River Massacres, Western Australia: Examining 'Wodgil' and the Significance Of
Patrick Bernard O’Leary and the Forrest River massacres, Western Australia: examining ‘Wodgil’ and the significance of 8 June 1926 Kate Auty Lynch mobs rather pointedly do not keep accounts: in a sense, they seek to negate history itself1 In June 1926 in the river, plain and ravine country of the Forrest River district of the Kimberley, Western Australia, some carvings on the limbs or trunks of two trees of indeterminate genus and age formed one of the impermanent residues of a police patrol's actions at police camp No 2. The 1927 Royal Commission of inquiry into alleged killing and burning of bodies of Aborigines in East Kimberley, and into Police methods when effecting arrests was established to inquire into what had occurred throughout that patrol.2 3 In the current 'history wars', controversy is overtaking the Report of the Royal Commission. The 1927 Wood Royal Commission heard evidence from, amongst others, Reverend Gribble, the man who ventilated the rumours about the deaths; Inspector Mitchell, the Aborigines Inspector who travelled some of the route of the police patrol; Police Inspector Douglas, the officer in charge of the investigation; Detective Manning, who assisted Douglas; non-Aboriginal members of the police patrol; and two Aboriginal people who travelled with the police. The members of the police patrol were Constables Regan and St Jack, soldier settler station owner Leopold Overheu, local civilians Patrick Bernard O'Leary and Richard Jolly, and visiting veterinarian Daniel Murnane. Each gave evidence. Nairn, the legal representative of the police party, called some other witnesses. Three of the Aboriginal trackers who travelled with the police party, and who had made statements which contradicted the police versions of events, failed to attend the Commission.

From an Indigenous and Wiradjuri perspective the research follows a journey of exploration into maintaining and strengthening ethical research practices based on traditional value systems.

Teacher Notes Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance SYNOPSIS
Teacher Notes Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance Howard Pedersen and Banjo Worrunmurra SYNOPSIS Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance is the true story of the powerful resistance put forth by Aboriginal freedom fighter, Jandamarra, in the closing years of the nineteenth century. To protect the Bunuba people of the Kimberley region, Jandamarra courageously and cleverly manoeuvred an opposition to the final stages of white invasion in Australia. Historian Howard Pedersen has interwoven written records including many primary source documents from the era with the oral history of the Bunuba people as told by Banjo Woorunmurra. The end result is an insightful and detailed account of the remarkable struggle against the many injustices suffered by the Indigenous peoples of Western Australia at the hands of white colonists, government officials and the police force. Most outstanding about Jandamarra and the Bunuba Resistance is the heroic and spiritual leadership of Jandamarra, a man whom his own countrymen greatly respected and regarded as a warrior with the gifts of magic and immortality. This he earned through his actions and pure courage. Indeed, Jandamarra is both legend and hero, a pivotal character in Australia’s past, present and future. THEMES Heroes and Legends • Jandamarra is a true hero, putting himself in grave danger to resist the colonisation of Bunuba country • The Jandamarra legend is one that is integral to the history and culture of Australia Relationships and Community • As a youngster, Jandamarra was ostracised from the

Part 6 of Australian Frontier Wars Western Australia
NUNAWADING MILITARY HISTORY GROUP MINI NEWSLETTER No. 30 Part 6 of Australian Frontier Wars Western Australia The first British settlement in Western Australia was established by the British Army, 57th of Foot, (West Middle- sex Regiment) at Albany in 1826. Relations between the garrison and the local Minang people were generally good. Open conflict between Noongar and European settlers broke out in Western Australia in the 1830s as the Swan River Colony expanded from Perth. The Pinjarra Massacre, the best known single event, occurred on 28 October 1833. The Pinjarra massacre, also known as the Battle of Pinjarra, is an attack that occurred in 1834 at Pinjarra, Western Australia on an uncertain number of Binjareb Noongar people by a detachment of 25 soldiers of the 21st of Foot, (North British Fusiliers), police and settlers led by Governor James Stirling. Stirling estimated the Bin- jareb present numbered "about 60 or 70" and John Roe, who also par- ticipated, at about 70–80, which roughly agree with an estimate of 70 by an unidentified eyewitness. On the attacking side, Captain Theophilus Tighe Ellis was killed and Corporal Patrick Heffron was injured. On the defending side an uncer- tain number of Binjareb men, women and children were killed. While Stirling quantified the number of Binjareb killed as probably 15 males, Roe estimated the number killed as 15–20, and an unidentified eyewitness as 25–30 including 1 woman and several children in addi- tion to being "very probable that more men were killed in the river and floated down with the stream". The number of Binjareb injured is un- known, as is the number of deaths resulting from injuries sustained Pinjarra Massacre Site memorial during the attack.

A Different Mode of War? Aboriginal 'Guerilla Tactics' in Defining The
A different mode of war? Aboriginal ‘guerilla tactics’ in defining the ‘Black War’ of Southern Queensland 1843-1855 A paper presented July 2014 AHA Conference, University of Queensland, Brisbane RayKerkhove, PhD Abstract Frontier violence is now an accepted chapter of Australian history. Indigenous resistance underlies this story, yet it has barely been examined as a military phenomenon (Connor 2004). Our understanding of military strategies Indigenous groups employed, and their broader objectives in undertaking resistance remains vague, being more often assumed than proven. Building on Laurie’s and Cilento’s contentions (1959) that an alliance of Aboriginal groups staged a fairly successful ‘Black War’ in southern Queensland during the 1840s and 1850s, the author seeks evidence for a historically definable (1843-1855) conflict during this period, complete with a record of Indigenous declaration, victories, coordination, leadership and planning. As the Australian situation continues to present elements which have proved difficult to reconcile with existing paradigms for military history, this study applies definitions from guerilla and terrorist conflict (e.g. Eckley 2001, Kilcullen 2009) to explain key features of the southern Queensland “Black War.” It also compares this to similar frontier engagements in other parts of Australia. The author concludes that Australian “resistance” wars followed their own distinctive pattern – achieving coordinated response through inter-tribal gatherings and sophisticated signaling; relying heavily on economic sabotage and targeted payback killings; and guided by self-depreciating “loner-leaders” much more wily and reticent than their equivalents in other parts of the world. The author also argues that contrary to the claims of military historians such as Dennis (1995), there is ample evidence for tactical innovation.

West Kimberley Place Report
WEST KIMBERLEY PLACE REPORT DESCRIPTION AND HISTORY ONE PLACE, MANY STORIES Located in the far northwest of Australia’s tropical north, the west Kimberley is one place with many stories. National Heritage listing of the west Kimberley recognises the natural, historic and Indigenous stories of the region that are of outstanding heritage value to the nation. These and other fascinating stories about the west Kimberley are woven together in the following description of the region and its history, including a remarkable account of Aboriginal occupation and custodianship over the course of more than 40,000 years. Over that time Kimberley Aboriginal people have faced many challenges and changes, and their story is one of resistance, adaptation and survival, particularly in the past 150 years since European settlement of the region. The listing also recognizes the important history of non-Indigenous exploration and settlement of the Kimberley. Many non-Indigenous people have forged their own close ties to the region and have learned to live in and understand this extraordinary place. The stories of these newer arrivals and the region's distinctive pastoral and pearling heritage are integral to both the history and present character of the Kimberley. The west Kimberley is a remarkable part of Australia. Along with its people, and ancient and surviving Indigenous cultural traditions, it has a glorious coastline, spectacular gorges and waterfalls, pristine rivers and vine thickets, and is home to varied and unique plants and animals. The listing recognises these outstanding ecological, geological and aesthetic features as also having significance to the Australian people. In bringing together the Indigenous, historic, aesthetic, and natural values in a complementary manner, the National Heritage listing of the Kimberley represents an exciting prospect for all Australians to work together and realize the demonstrated potential of the region to further our understanding of Australia’s cultural history.
