The market is a significant one with more than $42 billion in sales in FY12. While most similar international markets, including New Zealand, have at least two major players, the Australian market is fragmented and has had just one major chain with around 16% market share.

Some Thoughts on the History of North-Western Lycia in the Late Bronze and Iron Ages Summary: The present article contains observations on the invasion of Lycia by the Hittite king Tudhaliya IV as described in the Yalburt inscription. The author questions the commonly found identification of the land of VITIS/Wiyanwanda with the city of Oinoanda on account of the problems raised by the reading of the sign VITIS as well as of archaeological and strategical observations. With the aid of Lycian and Greek inscriptions the author argues that the original Wiya- nawanda/Oinoanda was located further south than the city commonly known as Oinoanda situated above İncealiler. These insights lead to a reassessment of the Hittite-Luwian sources concerning the conquest of Lycia.

    Sunuþ Çevreden Çýkarak arihsel çevre, doðal çevre, kentsel çevre olarak tanýmlanan ve yeni bir davranýþ Tkavramýný gündeme getiren çevre sözcüðü, evrenimizde insan oðlunun yerleþik düzene geçtiði Neolitik çaðdan bu yana bilinen bir sözcüktür. Zamanýmýzda ileri uygar- lýk düzeyini yakalamýþ zengin ülkeler, II. Dünya savaþýndan sonra çevre kavramýný çeþitli boyutlarý ile tartýþmýþlar ve gerekli koruyucu önlemlerini almýþlardýr. Ülkemizdeki Çevre kavramýna dönecek olursak, bu sözcüðün ve önüne gelen sýfatlarýn ancak çeyrek yüzyýllýk bir geçmiþi olduðunu görürüz. Bugün için çevre kavramýnýn içeriði hala çok kolay bir biçimde tarif edilir. Ancak tanýmýn ayrýntýsýna girildikçe, olayýn hiçte o kadar kolay açýklanamadýðý görülür. Biz arkeologlar için birinci derecede tarihsel çevre kavra- mý önem taþýr. Çünkü tarihsel çevremizin yaþamýmýzda bize vereceði dersleri, tercihleri ve davranýþ biçimlerimizi akýlcý bir yöntemle belirlememize olanak verir. Bu oluþumda dikkat edilecek olan ilkler arasýnda somut ve soyut kültür varlýklarýmýzý en iyi bir biçimde koruma bilincinin küçük yaþlardan itibaren toplumumuza verilmesi, saðlýklý bilgilerle uluslarýn kendi özgün kültürleri olabileceðini ve bunlar içinde korunmasý gerekli olan taþýnýr ve taþýnmaz kültür varlýklarýnýn da olabileceðini komplekslerden arýnarak öðret- memiz, bir yurttaþlýk görevi olmalýdýr. Bu öðreti o ülkenin kültürel yaþam kalitesini ortaya koymada en büyük etmendir. Kültürel yaþamýn oluþmasýnda geçmiþin ne denli önemli olduðunu görmemek bizce onarýlmasý olanaksýz bir yanýlgýdýr. Ülkemizde son çeyrek yüzyýlda geniþ halk kitlelerince kabul gören bu yeni taným, geçmiþimizin geleceðe ne kadar etkin olduðunu az da olsa öðretme becerisini yakalayabilmiþtir. Ancak Türkiye'nin plansýz ve ileriye dönük kurgularýnýn yapýlmaksýzýn baþlatýlan sanayileþme dönemi, kültürel varlýklarýmýzýn bilinçsizce kýyýmýna sebep olabilmiþtir. Son günlerde (Aralýk 2001 ve Ocak 2002) ülkemiz medyasýnda ve TBMM. genel kurulunda tartýþýlan bir konu ile "Tarihsel Çevre" Türkiye gündemine oturmuþtur.

    - 1 - INTRODUCTION A Sense of Place in Twentieth-Century Australian Life Writing In recent years, at both popular and academic levels, there has been increased talk about an Australian national identity. Events at home and abroad have sparked discussion about what it means to be “Australian”, and Australia’s role in world affairs. Such debates inevitably turn to a reassessment of traditional attributes of the “Australian character”, highlighted a few years ago by the controversy over the proposed insertion of the value of “mateship” into the preamble to the Australian constitution. For all this talk about national character and values, it is often forgotten that, on a more personal level, any identification with a nation or homeland must also involve a sense of place. What makes any of us Australian? Surely at bottom this has to begin with our dwelling in, having origins in, and retaining a continuing connection to this land mass we now call Australia. But what are the hallmarks of an Australian’s sense of place? How is it formed, nurtured and sustained? Does one’s sense of place change or alter depending on what part of Australia one lives in? As Simon Schama says in the introduction to his extensive study, Landscape and Memory, “it is our shaping perception that makes the difference between raw matter and landscape”.1 So, too, our sense of place comes not merely from the physical landforms we inhabit but also from within us, our mode of viewing, which is informed by culture and history. This thesis explores the sense of place formed during childhood, as remembered by adult Australians who reconstruct their youth through various forms of life writing.
