Language Groups in Goondir Service Region Language Groups in Goondir Service Region Goondir Health Service’s, service provision area covers from Warwick in the southeast, travelling west to Goondiwindi and St George, and then north to Yuleba, and then east to Kingaroy, and then back south to Warwick. Presently the National Native Title Tribunal has four (4) claims that covers the Goondir Health Services region: QC 99/04 Western Wakka Wakka People QG 99/05 Barunggam People QC 97/50 Mandandanji QC 91/06 Bigambul People The traditional boundaries that encompass the Goondir Health Services region were formed by many groupings of Aboriginal people. The custom of trading goods and ceremony, as well as the kinship ties between the various clans/ language groups allowed the members of the different groups to speak not only their own language, but they would also have been able to communicate with visitors to their district. The impact of early European exploration also had the effect of bringing other languages into their area. An example would be the practice by the early explorers of using Aborigines from the NSW’s Hunter Valley, and the Liverpool Plains district as guides, and they would have carried new languages and dialects into this region. The constant sharing of languages has led to present day confusion on what were the ‘traditional boundaries’ for the various clans/language groups. An example is Goondiwindi, as records show that it is situated within the boundaries of two (2) language groups, the Kamilaroi and the Bigambul. This confusion is evident in nearly every ‘Native Title Claim’. The most authoritative and comprehensive source for clarifying the confusion around clan/language boundaries is the Norman Tindale collection. Norman Tindale Information In 1921 anthropologist and entomologist Norman Tindale, began collecting information on Aboriginal people living on missions and government stations. By the end of the 1960s he had collected many photographs and recorded detailed genealogies of Aboriginal people all over Australia. The genealogical information includes up to three (3) generations of family names and, in some cases, tribal names, relevant moiety and totem. Tindale also collected the names and languages of the people living on these missions and stations. This information can be found in State Library of Queensland as the ‘The Tindale Collection’.

  • Evolution of Rights to Self-Determinism of Aboriginal People: a Comparative Analysis of Land Rights Reforms in Australia Alex Sadler, Divya Gupta Bowdoin College
    Indigenous Policy Journal Vol. XXIX, No. 3 (Winter 2019) Evolution of Rights to Self-Determinism of Aboriginal People: A Comparative Analysis of Land Rights Reforms in Australia Alex Sadler, Divya Gupta Bowdoin College Abstract Despite Australia’s ratification of the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) in 2009, Aboriginal peoples continue to face obstacles in exercising their inherent rights to self-determination and to free, prior and informed consent regarding the development of their traditional land. Recent decades have seen advancements in legislation and government-backed programming to support the recognition of Aboriginal peoples’ land rights; however, the current framework often fails to achieve meaningful outcomes for impacted communities. This paper provides an overview of Australia’s current legislative and programming efforts to secure Aboriginal peoples’ land rights, evaluating the benefits and downsides to each initiative from a rights- based perspective, with the aim of promoting productive discourse on pathways to protecting and implementing the rights enshrined in the UNDRIP. Introduction In 2009, Australia ratified the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP), after being one of only four countries to vote against its adoption in 2007. In reversing its decision, Australia symbolically demonstrated its commitment to the global shift towards the recognition of indigenous peoples’ inherent rights, which as the Declaration outlines derive from “their political, economic and social structures and from their cultures, spiritual traditions, histories and philosophies.” (United Nations, 2008) Although the UNDRIP covers a range of rights, from culture and identity to employment and education, a core focus of the agreement is the right of indigenous peoples to determine the development of their people and traditional land according to their own needs and interests.

  • A Thesis Submitted by Dale Wayne Kerwin for the Award of Doctor of Philosophy 2020
    SOUTHWARD MOVEMENT OF WATER – THE WATER WAYS A thesis submitted by Dale Wayne Kerwin For the award of Doctor of Philosophy 2020 Abstract This thesis explores the acculturation of the Australian landscape by the First Nations people of Australia who named it, mapped it and used tangible and intangible material property in designing their laws and lore to manage the environment. This is taught through song, dance, stories, and paintings. Through the tangible and intangible knowledge there is acknowledgement of the First Nations people’s knowledge of the water flows and rivers from Carpentaria to Goolwa in South Australia as a cultural continuum and passed onto younger generations by Elders. This knowledge is remembered as storyways, songlines and trade routes along the waterways; these are mapped as a narrative through illustrations on scarred trees, the body, engravings on rocks, or earth geographical markers such as hills and physical features, and other natural features of flora and fauna in the First Nations cultural memory. The thesis also engages in a dialogical discourse about the paradigm of 'ecological arrogance' in Australian law for water and environmental management policies, whereby Aqua Nullius, Environmental Nullius and Economic Nullius is written into Australian laws. It further outlines how the anthropocentric value of nature as a resource and the accompanying humanistic technology provide what modern humans believe is the tool for managing ecosystems. In response, today there is a coming together of the First Nations people and the new Australians in a shared histories perspective, to highlight and ensure the protection of natural values to land and waterways which this thesis also explores.

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.
