Resei Alex Barlow Behavioural Sciences Australian Institute of James Cook University of Aboriginal Studies North Queensland Canberra, A.C.T. ABSTRACT The intention of this paper is to provide a selective overview of Australian Aboriginal' 5 tedics and research. The nature and content of 'Aboriginal studies' in Austialia are described, and past and ongoing research in two areas, Aboriginal Education and Psychology, are briefly reviewed. An attempt is also made to address some broader issues and concerns which appear to cut across disciplines, and to identify some common areas of interest where research, tertiary education, and indigenous priorities appear to lie. In many ways the Canadian experience most closely approximates the indigenous situation in Australia, and there is considerable value in identifying areas of mutual interest and concern. There are no tertiary institutions in Australia which have Australian Aboriginal Studies as a core curriculum or program. There are, however, a number of Universities and Colleges or Advanced Education which have a strong Aboriginal course and content emphasis relevant to particular programs (e.g., education, community welfare, history, anthropology), as well as a number of institutions which have curricula and programs specifically designed for Aboriginal students (often called Aborigi nal Studies Programs). Researchers and teachers overseas who wish to make contact with institutions with a particular interest or expertise in Aboriginal Studies must keep this in mind, and perhaps make initial contact with a particular Department., individual, or advisory body. The only research center in Australia which would approximate a Native Studies center is the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies in Canberra, the national capitU. The Institute has an extensive library of published material dealing with or of relevance to

    Mesoamerican Ancient Civilizations The Olmec, Toltec, and Aztec Olmecs of Teotihuacán -“The People of the Land of Rubber…” -Large stone heads -Art found throughout Mesoamerica Olmec Civilization Origin and Impact n The Olmec civilization was thought to have originated around 1500 BCE. Within the next three centuries of their arrival, the people built their capital at Teotihuacán n This ancient civilization was believed by some historians to be the Mother-culture and base of Mesoamerica. “The city may well be the basic civilization out of which developed such high art centers as those of Maya, Zapotecs, Toltecs, and Totonacs.” – Stirling Cultural Practices n The Olmec people would bind wooden planks to the heads of infants to create longer and flatter skulls. n A game was played with a rubber ball where any part of the body could be used except for hands. Religion and Art n The Olmecs believed that celestial phenomena such as the phases of the moon affected daily life. n They worshipped jaguars, were-jaguars, and sometimes snakes. n Artistic figurines and toys were found, consisting of a jaguar with a tube joining its front and back feet, with clay disks forming an early model of the wheel. n Large carved heads were found that were made from the Olmecs. Olmec Advancements n The Olmecs were the first of the Mesoamerican societies, and the first to cultivate corn. n They built pyramid type structures n The Olmecs were the first of the Mesoamerican civilizations to create a form of the wheel, though it was only used for toys.

    Olmec Mirrors: an Example of Archaeological American Mirrors

    1 Olmec mirrors: an example of archaeological American mirrors José J. Lunazzi Universidade Estadual de Campinas - Instituto de Física 13083-970 - Campinas - SP - Brazil [email protected] ABSTRACT Archaeological mirrors from the Olmec civilization are described according to bibliographic references and to personal observations and photographs. CONTENTS 1. INTRODUCTION 2. APPEARANCE OF THE MIRRORS 3. HOW TO FIND THEM 4. THEIR SIGNIFICANCE IN THE CULTURAL CONTEXT OF THE OLMECS 5. TYPES OF MIRRORS 6. ON THE QUALITY OF REFRACTIVE ELEMENTS 7. CONCLUSIONS 8. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 9. REFERENCES 2 1. INTRODUCTION This report was not intended to give all the available information on the subject, but just a simple description that may be valuable for improving the knowledge that the optical community may have on it. The author believes to have consulted most of the available scientific bibliography as it can be traced through cross-referencing from the most recent papers. Olmec mirrors are the most ancient archaeological mirrors from Mexico and constitute a very good example of ancient American mirrors. The oldest mirrors found in America are from the Incas, made about 800 years before the Olmecs, dated from findings in archaeological sites in Peru. How this technology would have been extended to the north, appearing within the Olmecs, later within the Teotihuacan civilization, a few centuries before the Spanish colonization, is an interesting matter. Mirrors are important also within the Aztec civilization, that appeared in the proximity of the Olmec and Teotihuacan domains at about the time of their extintion. The extension of the geographic area where these mirrors were employed seems to us not entirely well-known.

    First Civilizations Cities, States, and Unequal Societies 3500 B.C.E.–500 B.C.E

    c h a p t e r t h r e e First Civilizations Cities, States, and Unequal Societies 3500 B.C.E.–500 B.C.E. “Over 100 miles of wilderness, deep exploration into pristine lands, the solitude of backcountry camping, 4-4 trails, and ancient American Indian rock art and ruins. You can’t find a better way to escape civilization!”1 So goes an advertisement for a vacation in Utah’s Canyonlands National Park, one of thousands of similar attempts to lure apparently constrained, beleaguered, and “civilized” city-dwellers into the spacious freedom of the wild and the imagined simplicity of earlier times. This urge to “escape from civilization” has long been a central feature in modern life. It is a major theme in Mark Twain’s famous novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, in which the restless and rebellious Huck resists all efforts to “civilize” him by fleeing to the freedom of life on the river. It is a large part of the “cowboy” image in American culture, and it permeates environmentalist efforts to protect the remaining wilderness areas of the country. Nor has this impulse been limited to modern societies and the Western world. The ancient Chinese teachers of Daoism likewise urged their followers to abandon the structured and demanding world of urban and civilized life and to immerse themselves in the eternal patterns of the natural order. It is a strange paradox that we count the creation of civilization among the major achievements of humankind and yet people within these civilizations have often sought to escape the constraints, artificiality, hierarchies, and other discontents of city living.

    Outline of United States Federal Indian Law and Policy

    Outline of United States federal Indian law and policy The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to United States federal Indian law and policy: Federal Indian policy – establishes the relationship between the United States Government and the Indian Tribes within its borders. The Constitution gives the federal government primary responsibility for dealing with tribes. Law and U.S. public policy related to Native Americans have evolved continuously since the founding of the United States. David R. Wrone argues that the failure of the treaty system was because of the inability of an individualistic, democratic society to recognize group rights or the value of an organic, corporatist culture represented by the tribes.[1] U.S. Supreme Court cases List of United States Supreme Court cases involving Indian tribes Citizenship Adoption Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians v.

  • Fort Manuel: Its Historical Significance

    Fort Manuel: Its Historical Significance

    Copyright © 1976 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Fort Manuel: Its Historical Significance I RViNG W. ANDERSON The Fort Manuel historic site lies on the west bank of the Missouri River seventy miles south of Bismarck, North Dakota, in the present state of South Dakota. Facts about the site are vague in the minds of the general public as httle has been published about this historical post. When synthesized, how- ever, the total record concerning Fort Manuel reveals that it has dual historical significance.' Established in 1812 by famous Missouri Fur Company trader, Manuel Lisa, Fort Manuel was among the first in the chain of fortified posts that ushered in the fur trading era of the upper Missouri. Although it existed for only a brief period. Fort Manuel claims historical impor- tance, first, because of its involvement in international warfare. On 5 March 1813 it was attacked by Indians and eventually destroyed, apparently upon British instigation arising out of hostilities of the War of 1812. It was reported that fifteen of Manuel Lisa's engages were massacred at the time of the Indian attack. Fort Manuel's second, and perhaps more significant, histori- cal feature lies in its distinction as the place \yhere Sacagawea, the legendary woman member of the Lewis and Clark Expedi- tion, died on 20 December 1812.^ Although records of the period of her death are conclusive as to her identity, a turn of the century theory, which purported that she died in Wyoming 1. When all historical facts are considered. Fort Manuel deserves designation as a Registered National Historic Place, as such identification would properly mark its role in the documented history of the trans-Mississippi West.

Olmecs: Where the Sidewalk Begins By Jeffrey Benson Western Oregon University An In Depth Look at the Olmec Controversy Mother Culture or Sister Culture 1 The discovery of the Olmecs has caused archeologists, scientists, historians and scholars from various fields to reevaluate the research of the Olmecs on account of the highly discussed and argued areas of debate that surround the people known as the Olmecs. Given that the Olmecs have only been studied in a more thorough manner for only about a half a century, today we have been able to study this group with more overall gathered information of Mesoamerica and we have been able to take a more technological approach to studying the Olmecs. The studies of the Olmecs reveals much information about who these people were, what kind of a civilization they had, but more importantly the studies reveal a linkage between the Olmecs as a mother culture to later established civilizations including the Mayas, Teotihuacan and other various city- states of Mesoamerica.

Both Martin Heidegger and Jean Paul Sartre, for example, perceive that nothing is part-and-parcel of (man’s) being. The present study adopts a similar position concerning nothing and its essential relationship to being, but adds a third element: that of writing narrative. This relationship between nothing and narrative is, I argue, established in the writings of Friedrich Nietzsche, Mikhail Bakhtin, Jacques Derrida, and Julia Kristeva. As Heidegger and Sartre position nothing as essential to the creation of being, so Nietzsche, Bakhtin, Derrida, and Kristeva figure nothing as essential to the production of narrative.
