I would often look at him when we were discussing an issue, sometimes rather vigorously, and he would be rolling his eyes, waiting to bring us back to the point in question. Orchard was known for his humour and would end the Committee meetings with one of his special jokes, which would send us off with a laugh and that wonderful feeling of companionship. Orchard, we will miss your company, good humour, your voice of reason and for your many and varied skills. Orchard’s wife Amanda rang me to tell me of Orchard’s last wish.

Before European contact the Aborigines of the Borroloola area were distributed in small groups of fluid composition pursuing a hunter-gatherer way of life coming together for seasonal ceremonial activities. The territories of populations marked by language and culture coincided with ecologically significant areas where a particular way of life was followed. The Yanyuwa, the main subjects of the thesis, made a highly specialised socio-cultural adaptation to their mainly marine environment. One important factor in this was the annual visiting of Macassan trepangers to the Sir Edward Pellew Islands. They traded dugout canoes, iron tools and other exotic goods to the Aborigines, and this helped compensate for the natural disadvantages of the Islands for the hunter-gatherers. The seasonal ceremonial cycle still occurs and male initiations draw large numbers of Aboriginal people to Borroloola at the end€ the dry season. The initiation ground is a prominent feature of the main camp at Borroloola; and it is argued in this thesis that it represents a central moment in the articulation of social relations as they can be discerned in residential patterns. The semi-moiety organisation participates in the same structure of relations, articulating ritual relations with mainly female reproductivity in the social relationship of marriage.
