Tangible Aboriginal cultural heritage relates to the physical, material evidence of Aboriginal occupation that exists across Australia and Sites where tangible and/or intangible Victoria, including over much of the Parks Victoria managed estate. cultural heritage exist are generally Examples of tangible Aboriginal cultural heritage can range from referred to as Aboriginal cultural heritage small moveable objects (such as stone artefacts), to large built places. These places can have social, structures (including ancient eel traps and stone houses, or post- contact structures such as mission stations). Aboriginal cultural spiritual, and ceremonial significance. heritage and places have important and unique heritage values. Contemporary Traditional Owners view Aboriginal heritage places and objects as important links to their Ancestors and their Country. Intangible cultural heritage relates to spiritual connections to Country and the land, to cultural stories and to past and present activities of cultural and social significance to Aboriginal people. These intangible elements are connected and interrelated to specific places, and in turn to tangible heritage. An Aboriginal place can have intangible heritage values if, for example, there is a particular ceremonial, cultural or spiritual story or events connected to a particular landscape or place on Country. Parks Victoria has developed strong How to use this guide What to do if you find something partnerships with Traditional Owners in The Aboriginal Heritage Identification All Aboriginal cultural heritage is protected Victoria, learning, understanding and Guide has been developed to allow for under the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 acknowledging the long and fundamental greater awareness and care of Aboriginal (Vic.)

If you come across anything you believe to be an Aboriginal burial site, stop all work in the surrounding area immediately and protect the remains from any kind of disturbance. Report them to the Coroner - Victorian Institute of Forensic Medicine (1300 309 519). A forensic anthropologist will assess the report and contact the Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Council (VAHC) if the human remains are believed to be Aboriginal Ancestral Remains. The VAHC will assist in determining the next steps and the relevant Traditional Owners to be notified. Aboriginal Burials occur in many places Protecting Aboriginal Ancestral Remains and Burials on Country is challenging given the effects of climate change, erosion, human and landforms.

Identify and explain how did indigenous people impact upon their environment? Indigenous people changed the landscape using fire stick farming which also assisted hunting Aboriginal people used their knowledge of the seasons to optimise hunting, gathering, eel farming and more Aboriginal people used organic local materials to create tools to assist them with hunting and gathering their food i.e. eel traps, woven grass baskets, rock fish traps etc. They only ever took what they needed from the land and had a deep respect and spiritual connection to the land and their surroundings. 2. How are humans impacting on natural resources in today’s society? How does this affect wildlife? When the land is disrespected, damaged or destroyed, this can have real impact on the wellbeing of people, plants and animals. European settlers and modern day humans have caused land degradation by: •Introducing poor farming practices causing land degradation •Introducing noxious weeds •Changing water flow courses and draining wetlands •Introducing feral animals •Destroying habitat through urbanization, logging and farming practices 3.

  • The Gunditjmara Land Justice Story Jessica K Weir
    The legal outcomes the Gunditjmara achieved in the 1980s are often overlooked in the history of land rights and native title in Australia. The High Court Onus v Alcoa case and the subsequent settlement negotiated with the State of Victoria, sit alongside other well known bench marks in our land rights history, including the Gurindji strike (also known as the Wave Hill Walk-Off) and land claim that led to the development of land rights legislation in the Northern Territory. This publication links the experiences in the 1980s with the Gunditjmara’s present day recognition of native title, and considers the possibilities and limitations of native title within the broader context of land justice.

Victoria’s Climate Change Act requires the Government to ‘take strong action to build resilience to, and reduce the risks posed by, climate change and protect those most vulnerable.’11 Development of this community-led Grampians Region Climate Adaptation Strategy and coordination of its implementation has been funded by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP).

  • A Grampians Massacre? an Analysis of the Participant’S Account of an Early Whyte Brothers Massacre in the Portland District
    A Grampians Massacre? An analysis of the Participant’s account of an early Whyte Brothers massacre in the Portland district by PD Gardner (written with assistance from the Search Foundation.This is an unpublished essay completed about 2010) The account of this massacre - which I consider a primary source and not as well known as it should be - went as follows: “ ‘Why' said one of them, the elder of the two, ‘I can remember when they used to shoot down the blacks in this colony as you would do kangaroos, all because they sometimes killed a few sheep. I remember down in the Port District, when the four Parks and three other men, I was one of them, shot sixty-nine in one afternoon. The devils had stolen about 100 sheep and driven them away to the ranges. When they got them there they broke their legs to prevent them escaping, and were killing them and eating them at their leisure ... We all mounted horses, and armed with rifles set off in hot pursuit. It was early morning when we started, and about the middle of the day we came up with the black rascals, and a rare chase we had of it. They set off like mad, about one hundred and fifty of them, never showing fight in the least. The ranges were so rocky that we had to dismount and follow them on foot, and after two or three hours chase we got them beautiful - right between a crossfire, a steep rock on one side they could not climb, and rifles on each of the other.
