  • Mulan Layout Plan 2 Draft Version 6 Background Report
    Mulan Layout Plan 2 Background Report Ratified Draft Version Control: Version 1 - June 2009 Version 2 - November 2009 Version 3 - March 2010 Version 4 - April 2013 Version 5 - August 2013 Version 6 - July 2020 MULAN LAYOUT PLAN 2 Layout Plan 2 (LP2) was prepared during 2008 and 2009 in partnership with the Mulan resident community and in consultation with relevant government agencies and authorities by the former Department of Planning. Following completion of draft LP2, the Mulan resident community representatives declined to endorse LP2. SPP3.2 provides that if a resident community declines to endorse a Layout Plan, the plan may not be endorsed by any other party. State agencies and authorities require a validated spatial framework for Mulan to ensure that services are provided efficiently. To provide this, the Western Australian Planning Commission (WAPC) ratified Version 1 of Mulan Layout Plan 2 (LP2) on 9 June 2009. During the period November 2009 until August 2013 the WAPC endorsed 4 further versions of LP2. The endorsed versions are listed in part 7 of this report. The WAPC endorsed Version 6 of LP2 in July 2020. Version 6 incorporates administrative changes to the map-set and includes the addition of this report. LP2 remains a draft until such time as it has been endorsed by the resident community and other relevant parties, including the WAPC. As part of the machinery of government (MOG) process, a new department incorporating the portfolios of Planning, Lands, Heritage and Aboriginal lands and heritage was established on 1st of July 2017 with a new department title, Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage.

AIATSIS would recommend the focus of this senate inquiry includes: consultation with traditional owner groups; native title corporations administering native title settlements and agreements bodies; Native Title Representative Bodies (NTRBs); Native Title Service Providers (NTSPs) and Aboriginal Land Councils: all of whom exercise responsibility for the management of the Indigenous Estate and large tracts of the National Reserve System. This critical consultation and engagement is to ensure that traditional knowledge and management is acknowledged as being an essential element in threatened species recovery, management and conservation. AIATSIS submits that acknowledging the totality of the Indigenous Estate and its interconnection with the National Reserve System is essential in terms of addressing the faunal extinction crisis across the content. Caring for Country programs, Indigenous Land and Sea Management Programs (ILSMPs) and Indigenous Protected Areas (IPAs) are achieving great success in terms of threatened species recovery and the eradication of feral pests and species. Please find attached the AIATSIS submission which is based upon 26 years of research and practice by AIATSIS in Indigenous cultural heritage and native title law.

  • (Pristis Microdon) in the Fitzroy River Kimberley,, Westernn Australia
    Biology and cultural significance of the freshwater sawfish (Pristis microdon) in the Fitzroy River Kimberley, Western Australia Report to 2004 A collaboration between Kimberley Language Resource Centre Cover Artwork: Competition winner, freshwater sawfish painting by Joy Nuggett (Mangkaja Arts, Fitzroy Crossing, Western Australia) Report by Dean Thorburn, David Morgan and Howard Gill from the Freshwater Fish Group at the Centre for Fish & Fisheries Research Mel Johnson, Hugh Wallace-Smith, Tom Vigilante, Ari Gorring, Ishmal Croft and Jean Fenton Land + Sea Unit Numerous language experts and people of the west Kimberley in conjunction with the Kimberley Language Resource Centre Our sincere gratitude is extended to the Threatened Species Network and World Wide Fund For Nature for providing the funds for this project. Fishcare WA and Environment Australia also made a substantial financial contribution to the project . 2 Project Summary During a collaborative study involving researchers and members from Murdoch University, the Kimberley Land Council, the Kimberley Language Resource Centre and numerous communities of the west Kimberley, a total of 79 endangered freshwater sawfish Pristis microdon were captured (and released) from King Sound and the Fitzroy, May and Robinson rivers between 2002 and 2004. Forty of these individuals were tagged. This culturally significant species, is not only an important food source, but is included in a number of stories and beliefs of the peoples of the Fitzroy River, where it is referred to as ‘galwanyi’ in Bunuba and Gooniyandi, ‘wirridanyniny’ or ‘pial pial’ in Nyikina, and ‘wirrdani’ in Walmajarri (see Chapter 2). In relation to the biology and ecology of the species (Chapter 1), of the 73 individuals sexed, 43 were female, ranging in length from 832 to 2770 mm TL, and 30 were male, ranging in length from 815 to 2350 mm TL.

  • A Grammatical Sketch of Ngarla: a Language of Western Australia Torbjörn Westerlund
    UPPSALA UNIVERSITY master thesis The department for linguistics and philology spring term 2007 A grammatical sketch of Ngarla: A language of Western Australia Torbjörn Westerlund Supervisor: Anju Saxena Abstract In this thesis the basic grammatical structure of normal speech style of the Western Australian language Ngarla is described using example sentences taken from the Ngarla – English Dictionary (by Geytenbeek; unpublished). No previous description of the language exists, and since there are only five people who still speak it, it is of utmost importance that it is investigated and described. The analysis in this thesis has been made by Torbjörn Westerlund, and the focus lies on the morphology of the nominal word class. The preliminary results show that the language shares many grammatical traits with other Australian languages, e.g. the ergative/absolutive case marking pattern. The language also appears to have an extensive verbal inflectional system, and many verbalisers. 2 Abbreviations 0 zero marked morpheme 1 first person 1DU first person dual 1PL first person plural 1SG first person singular 2 second person 2DU second person dual 2PL second person plural 2SG second person singular 3 third person 3DU third person dual 3PL third person plural 3SG third person singular A the transitive subject ABL ablative ACC accusative ALL/ALL2 allative ASP aspect marker BUFF buffer morpheme C consonant CAUS causative COM comitative DAT dative DEM demonstrative DU dual EMPH emphatic marker ERG ergative EXCL exclusive, excluding addressee FACT factitive FUT future tense HORT hortative ImmPAST immediate past IMP imperative INCHO inchoative INCL inclusive, including addressee INSTR instrumental LOC locative NEG negation NMLISER nominaliser NOM nominative N.SUFF nominal class suffix OBSCRD obscured perception P the transitive object p.c.

    P129: The Personal Archives of Alfred Reginald RADCLIFFE-BROWN (1881- 1955), Professor of Anthropology 1926 – 1931 Contents Date Range: 1915-1951 Shelf Metre: 0.16 Accession: Series 2: Gift and deposit register p162 Alfred Reginald Radcliffe-Brown was born on 17 January 1881 at Aston, Warwickshire, England, second son of Alfred Brown, manufacturer's clerk and his wife Hannah, nee Radcliffe. He was educated at King Edward's School, Birmingham, and Trinity College, Cambridge (B.A. 1905, M. A. 1909), graduating with first class honours in the moral sciences tripos. He studied psychology under W. H. R. Rivers, who, with A. C. Haddon, led him towards social anthropology. Elected Anthony Wilkin student in ethnology in 1906 (and 1909), he spent two years in the field in the Andaman Islands. A fellow of Trinity (1908 - 1914), he lectured twice a week on ethnology at the London School of Economics and visited Paris where he met Emily Durkheim. At Cambridge on 19 April 1910 he married Winifred Marie Lyon; they were divorced in 1938. Radcliffe-Brown (then known as AR Brown) joined E. L. Grant Watson and Daisy Bates in an expedition to the North-West of Western Australia studying the remnants of Aboriginal tribes for some two years from 1910, but friction developed between Brown and Mrs. Bates. Brown published his research from that time in an article titled “Three Tribes of Western Australia”, The Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland, Vol. 43, (Jan. - Jun., 1913), pp. 143-194. At the 1914 meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science in Melbourne, Daisy Bates accused Brown of gross plagiarism.

  • Nyikina Paradigms and Refunctionalization: a Cautionary Tale in Morphological Reconstruction
    Nyikina Paradigms and Refunctionalization: A Cautionary Tale in Morphological Reconstruction Claire Bowern Yale University Department of Linguistics PO Box 208366 New Haven, CT 06520, USA [email protected] Ph: +1.203.432.2045 Keywords: morphology, Nyulnyulan, Australian languages, exaptation, reconstruction, analogy 1 Abstract Here I present a case study of change in the complex verb morphology of the Nyikina language of Northwestern Australia. I describe changes which lead to reanalysis of underlying forms while preserving much of the inherited phonological material. The changes presented here do not fit into previous typologies of morphological change. Nyikina lost the distinction between past and present, and in doing so, merged two paradigms into one. The former past tense marker came to be associated with intransitive verb stems. The inflected verbs thus continue inherited material, but in a different function. These changes are most parsimoniously described in a theory of word formation which makes reference to paradigms. 1 Introduction 1.1 Background Many types of change can occur in morphology. Studies such as Anderson (1988) and Koch (1996) identified a series of processes which cause change in morphemes. These include, in addition to regular sound change which operates on fully inflected forms, various types of boundary shift (such as the absorption of material into stems or the reanalysis of one morpheme as two), and analogical changes such as paradigm regularization. Inflectional material can also be lost. Other processes are particularly associated with morphological change in complex paradigms, though by no means exclusively so. These include so-called “hermit-crab” morphology – and the related change of “lost wax” – described by Heath (1997, 1998).

To work in partnership with the diverse Kimberley language communities To ensure Kimberley languages are passed on to children. The KLRC is the only organisation in Australia focussing solely on Kimberley Aboriginal languages. The Kimberley was, and still is, the one of the most linguistically diverse areas in Australia with at least 421 language groups plus additional dialects identified. The KLRC Directors advocate for the 30 or so languages still spoken. The organisation was established in 1984 by Aboriginal people concerned about the effects of colonisation and the continuing impact of Western society on their spoken languages and cultural knowledge. It is beginning its 26th year of operations with a wealth of experience and resources underpinning its service delivery. The organisation is governed by a Board of 12 Directors accountable to a membership from across the region. The office is based in Halls Creek in the East Kimberley. The KLRC provides a forum for developing language policy to strategically revive and maintain (in other words, continue) the Kimberley Aboriginal languages.
