DENVER MUSEUM OF NATURE & SCIENCE ANNALS NUMBER 7, OCT0BER 11, 2018 Halena Kapuni-Reynolds1 Voyaging through the Oceanic Collection at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science photography by Richard M. Wicker2 ABSTRACT—The Oceanic Collection at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science is one of the smallest collections contained within the museum’s World Ethnology Collection, yet it is perhaps one of the largest regional collections of Oceanic materials in the Rocky Mountains— second only to the Denver Art Museum. This article provides the first in-depth look at this collection through an accession-based approach of describing the objects, peoples, and histories found within it. In using the concepts of (re)discovery and wayfinding as material culture research methods, this paper presents a “voyage” through the Oceanic Collection facilitated by collections-based and archival research. The essay ends by reflecting on the Department of Anthropology’s mission statement to curate “the best understood and most ethically held anthropology collection in North America,” and on how this statement can be pro- 1Museum Studies Graduate Certificate mulgated through further research on the Oceanic Collection, as well as Program, Department of American future partnerships with diasporic Pacific Islander communities living Studies, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, in Colorado. 1890 East-West Road, Moore Hall 324, Honolulu, HI 96822, U.S.A.

  • EXHIBITS an Evolution
    CHAPTER 2 EXHIBITS An Evolution Frances Kruger, Not Finished After All These Years Liz Clancy, and Museums have many important functions, but exhibits are what most Kristine A. Haglund people come to see. In addition to educating and entertaining, exhibits bring visitors in the door, generating revenue that supports Museum operations. More than a century after John F. Campion spoke at the Museum’s opening exercises on July 1, 1908, his observation that “a museum of natural history is never finished” is especially true in the world of exhibits (Fig. 2.1)—and in fact needs to stay true for the Museum to remain relevant (Alton 2000). Times change, expectations change, demographics change, and opportuni- ties change. This chapter is a selective, not-always-chronological look at some of the ways that the Museum’s exhibits have changed with the times, evolving from static displays and passive observation to immersive experi- ences to increased interactivity and active visitor involvement. Starting from a narrow early focus, the Museum went on to embrace the goal of “bringing the world to Denver” and, more recently, to a renewed regional emphasis and a vision of creating a community of critical thinkers who understand the lessons of the past and act as responsible stewards of the future.1 Figure 2.1.

  • The Meaning of Yaroomba II
    Revisiting the place name meaning of Yaroomba The Gaiarbau, ‘bunya country’ and ‘thick vine scrub’ connections (by Kerry Jones, Arnold Jones, Sean Fleischfresser, Rodney Jones, Lore?a Algar, Helen Jones & Genevieve Jones) The Sunshine Coast region, fiHy years ago, may have had the greatest use of place names within Queensland derived from Aboriginal language words, according to researcher, E.G. Heap’s 1966 local history arQcle, ‘In the Wake of the Rasmen’. In the early days of colonisaon, local waterways were used to transport logs and Qmber, with the use of Aboriginal labour, therefore the term ‘rasmen’. Windolf (1986, p.2) notes that historically, the term ‘Coolum District’ included all the areas of Coolum Beach, Point Arkwright, Yaroomba, Mount Coolum, Marcoola, Mudjimba, Pacific Paradise and Peregian. In the 1960’s it was near impossible to take transport to and access or communicate with these areas, and made that much more difficult by wet or extreme weather. Around this Qme the Sunshine Coast Airport site (formerly the Maroochy Airport) having Mount Coolum as its backdrop, was sQll a Naonal Park (QPWS 1999, p. 3). Figure 1 - 1925 view of coastline including Mount Coolum, Yaroomba & Mudjimba Island north of the Maroochy Estuary In October 2014 the inaugural Yaroomba Celebrates fesQval, overlooking Yaroomba Beach, saw local Gubbi Gubbi (Kabi Kabi) TradiQonal Owner, Lyndon Davis, performing with the yi’di’ki (didgeridoo), give a very warm welcome. While talking about Yaroomba, Lyndon stated this area too was and is ‘bunya country’. Windolf (1986, p.8) writes about the first Qmber-ge?ers who came to the ‘Coolum District’ in the 1860’s.
