  • Coober Pedy, South Australia
    The etymology of Coober Pedy, South Australia Petter Naessan The aim of this paper is to outline and assess the diverging etymologies of ‘Coober Pedy’ in northern South Australia, in the search for original and post-contact local Indigenous significance associated with the name and the region. At the interface of contemporary Yankunytjatjara and Pitjantjatjara opinion (mainly in the Coober Pedy region, where I have conducted fieldwork since 1999) and other sources, an interesting picture emerges: in the current use by Yankunytjatjara and Pitjantjatjara people as well as non-Indigenous people in Coober Pedy, the name ‘Coober Pedy’ – as ‘white man’s hole (in the ground)’ – does not seem to reflect or point toward a pre-contact Indigenous presence. Coober Pedy is an opal mining and tourist town with a total population of about 3500, situated near the Stuart Highway, about 850 kilometres north of Adelaide, South Australia. Coober Pedy is close to the Stuart Range, lies within the Arckaringa Basin and is near the border of the Great Victoria Desert. Low spinifex grasslands amounts for most of the sparse vegetation. The Coober Pedy and Oodnadatta region is characterised by dwarf shrubland and tussock grassland. Further north and northwest, low open shrub savanna and open shrub woodland dominates.1 Coober Pedy and surrounding regions are arid and exhibit very unpredictable rainfall. Much of the economic activity in the region (as well as the initial settlement of Euro-Australian invaders) is directly related to the geology, namely quite large deposits of opal. The area was only settled by non-Indigenous people after 1915 when opal was uncovered but traditionally the Indigenous population was western Arabana (Midlaliri).

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.

Breuer) took the chair at 11:01 and read prayers. UNIVERSITY OF ADELAIDE (TRUST PROPERTY) AMENDMENT BILL Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg) (10:32): Obtained leave and introduced a bill for an act to amend the University of Adelaide Act 1971. Read a first time. Ms CHAPMAN (Bragg) (10:33): I move: That this bill be now read a second time. I move the University of Adelaide (Trust Property) Amendment Bill with a heavy heart. However, it is supported by the Liberal opposition and I am pleased to have its support. It is a bill to amend the University of Adelaide Act 1971. Members will be aware that the University of Adelaide was established by an act of this parliament, the first in South Australia and the third in Australia. It has a proud and respected history as an institution in this state. In 2003, the structure and independence of the governance of our universities was debated as a result of introduced bills for our three public universities in South Australia by then minister Lomax-Smith and supported by the opposition. An essential element of that bill was to provide greater autonomy in the handling of the university's own affairs, including its financial affairs and, in particular, the capacity to be able to buy, sell, lease, encumber or deal with its assets, and particularly real property. However, the reform retained in it an obligation to secure cabinet approval for very substantial property it owned, including the North Terrace precinct, Roseworthy and Waite campuses.

The book gives an intimate view of the effects of the tests on one particular family and their community through the life of Yvonne Edwards—as a child, young woman, mother, grandmother and community activist. Maralinga’s Long Shadow highlights the long term effects of the forced relocation of Aboriginal people from their traditional homelands and contains within it the story of yet another member of the Stolen Generation—Yvonne Edwards’ first child, who was removed after Yvonne was deceived into signing a paper to give him up.
