Institutionalisation of Aborigines, under the guise of assimilation and protection policies, was only abandoned in.the lg7Os. It is therefore important to understand the implications of these policies for Aborigines and Australian society in general. I investigate the affect of institutionalisation on Aborigines, questioning the assumption tl.at they were passive victims forced onto missions and government stations and kept there as virtual prisoners.

  • Place Names of South Australia: W
    W Some of our names have apparently been given to the places by drunken bushmen andfrom our scrupulosity in interfering with the liberty of the subject, an inflection of no light character has to be borne by those who come after them. SheaoakLog ispassable... as it has an interesting historical association connectedwith it. But what shall we say for Skillogolee Creek? Are we ever to be reminded of thin gruel days at Dotheboy’s Hall or the parish poor house. (Register, 7 October 1861, page 3c) Wabricoola - A property North -East of Black Rock; see pastoral lease no. 1634. Waddikee - A town, 32 km South-West of Kimba, proclaimed on 14 July 1927, took its name from the adjacent well and rock called wadiki where J.C. Darke was killed by Aborigines on 24 October 1844. Waddikee School opened in 1942 and closed in 1945. Aboriginal for ‘wattle’. ( See Darke Peak, Pugatharri & Koongawa, Hundred of) Waddington Bluff - On section 98, Hundred of Waroonee, probably recalls James Waddington, described as an ‘overseer of Waukaringa’. Wadella - A school near Tumby Bay in the Hundred of Hutchison opened on 1 July 1914 by Jessie Ormiston; it closed in 1926. Wadjalawi - A tea tree swamp in the Hundred of Coonarie, west of Point Davenport; an Aboriginal word meaning ‘bull ant water’. Wadmore - G.W. Goyder named Wadmore Hill, near Lyndhurst, after George Wadmore, a survey employee who was born in Plymouth, England, arrived in the John Woodall in 1849 and died at Woodside on 7 August 1918. W.R. Wadmore, Mayor of Campbelltown, was honoured in 1972 when his name was given to Wadmore Park in Maryvale Road, Campbelltown.

  • Vadhalinha Von Doussa
    V Many of the changes that have already taken place show that, despite early or local associations, improvements are commonly welcomed and gradually prevail. (Advertiser, 17 September 1900, page 4d) Vadhalinha Gorge - East of Beltana; Aboriginal for ‘like a grub’. Vailima Court - A subdivision of part section 256, Hundred of Adelaide, by Carl H.W. Nitschke, licensed victualler, in 1918; now included in Hackney. The original plan shows ‘Elm Court’. Vale Park - Takes its name from ‘Vale House’, purchased by Philip Levi in November 1856. In November 1947 the last surviving member of the family, Constance Levi, offered the house and ten acres of land to the Walkerville Corporation for the purpose of a public park, known, today, as ‘Levi Park’. In 1838, at the age of sixteen years, Phillip Levi arrived in Australia from Surrey in the Eden. His first job was taken with the Customs Department, but he soon combined pastoral activities with mercantile pursuits. He opened the commercial house of Philip Levi & Co. at the corner of King William and Grenfell Streets, Adelaide, where the old Imperial Hotel stood. That locality was known for many years as ‘Levi’s Corner’. For more than half a century Philip Levi, who in his early youth devoted much time and work to opening up the north, was one of the most familiar figures in Adelaide. Grazing his first flock of sheep over the now thickly populated suburbs of Prospect and Walkerville, Levi… acquired ‘Dust Holes’ near Truro. A man of remarkable energy and financial ability, with a daring speculative spirit, tempered with sound judgement, Levi, most of whose ventures were brought to a successful issue, speedily made a large fortune.

The first determined the area covering the Angepena pastoral lease within the Adnyamathanha No. 1 application (Adnyamathanha People No. 1 Native Title Claim Group v The State of South Australia - SAD6001/1998) and included non-exclusive rights and interests only. The second determined a large area of the Adnyamathanha No. 1 application and included areas of both exclusive and non- exclusive rights and interests (Adnyamathanha People No. 1 Native Title Claim Group v The State of South Australia - SAD6001/1998). The areas where exclusive native title rights and interests were recognised were subject to the operation of s. 47A of the Native Title Act 1993 Cwlth. This is the determination contained in this National Native Title Register extract. These two determinations together determined approximately half of the Adnyamathanha No. 1 application. The third determined the entire application over the Flinders Ranges National Park (Adnyamathanha People No.
