LETTER FROM THE EDITORS With the first issue of ab-Original: Journal of Indigenous Studies and First Nations and First Peoples’ Cultures, this editorial introduces a new and highly innovative addition to international scholarly engagements with Indigenous Studies and First Nations cultures and peoples around the globe. Indeed, this first editorial can be read as something of a manifesto. We map out both the intended purpose of our new journal and the intellectual ter- rain that we envisage will be discussed and debated within its pages in the years to come. We think it fitting that ab-Original is hosted by the University of Sydney, the oldest and arguably most prestigious center of higher learning in Australia, located on the Country of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, ground zero of the invasion of the Australian continent by British colonial- ists that began in the eighteenth century. Moreover, the geographic loca- tion of Sydney and its university has significance to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples everywhere as the starting point of contemporary struggles against both settler colonialism and white supremacy. Gadigal Country is today also recognized by Aboriginal peoples and Torres Strait Islanders as an important transit point for Indigenous peoples entering and exiting Australia. For Indigenous peoples in the wealthiest nation-states, the rapidly growing possibilities to engage in overseas travel have brought with them new opportunities for the exchange of past experience, today’s challenges, and new ideas for the future. The sharing and transmitting of Indigenous stories about analogous anticolonial struggles, daily battles with structural forms of ignorance, racism, and political marginalization from the “mainstream,” as well as exploring how best to nurture Indigenous cul- tures, languages, traditions, and access to land and sea resources, are creat- ing new intellectual conversations and models of practice that truly confirm that the age of global indigeneity is upon us. Unashamedly, ab-Original intends to play a critical role in the exchange of Indigenous-generated ideas now taking place in the global context. Though hosted by the University of Sydney in Australia, the new journal is a publication of Penn State University Press. In our view, partnership with ab-Original: Journal of Indigenous Studies and First Nations and First Peoples’ Cultures, Vol. 1, No. 1, 2017 Copyright © 2017 The Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA a scholarly press based in North America is critical to fulfilling the global ambitions of this journal and signals our intent that ab-Original be like no other scholarly journal presently produced in the field of Indigenous Studies in Australia or elsewhere. In many respects, the launching of ab-Original as a journal of global indigeneity is a direct outgrowth of two academic initiatives, the National Indigenous Research and Knowledges Network (NIRAKN) in Australia and the Native American and Indigenous Studies Association (NAISA) in North America. Both NIRAKN and NAISA have worked hard to build global networks of engagement with

Was it formed by the fi rst generation of native-born Australians in the ‘Sydney mixing bowl’, its spread subsequently facilitated by high population mobility? Or is the answer to be found in sociolinguistic reconstructions of the early colony suggesting that a uniform London English was transplanted to Australia in 1788 and that speakers of other dialects quickly adapted to it? How is Australia’s national identity embodied in its lexicon, and to what extent is it currently under the infl uence of external pressure from American English?

Introduction Language, land and song are closely entwined for most pre-industrial societies, whether the fishing and farming economies of Homeric Greece, or the raiding, mercenary and farming economies of the Norse, or the hunter- gatherer economies of Australia. Documenting a language is now seen as incomplete unless documenting place, story and song forms part of it. This book presents language documentation in its broadest sense in the Australian context, also giving a view of the documentation of Australian Aboriginal languages over time.1 In doing so, we celebrate the achievements of a pioneer in this field, Luise Hercus, who has documented languages, land, song and story in Australia over more than fifty years.

Modern time (lower intuitive plan) 23. 1870-1910 – «imperialism». 24. 1910-1950 – «militarism». 25.1950-1990 – «social-imperialism». 26.1990-2030 – «neoliberalism». 27. 2030-2070 – «neoromanticism». New history. We understand the new history generally in the same way as the representatives of Marxist history. It is a history of establishment of new social-economic formation – capitalism, which, in difference to the previous formations, uses the economic impelling and the big machine production. The most important classes are bourgeoisie and hired workers, in the last time the number of the employees in the sphere of service increases. The peasants decrease in number, the movement of peasants into towns takes place; the remaining peasants become the independent farmers, who are involved into the ware and money economy. In the political sphere it is an epoch of establishment of the republican system, which is profitable first of all for the bourgeoisie, with the time the political rights and liberties are extended for all the population. In the spiritual plan it is an epoch of the upper mental, or causal (later lower intuitive) plan, the humans discover the laws of development of the world and man, the traditional explanations of religion already do not suffice. The time of the swift development of technique (Satan was loosed out of his prison, according to Revelation 20.7), which causes finally the global ecological problems.

  • Ken Macintyre and Barb Dobson 2017 Research Anthropologists
    Ken Macintyre and Barb Dobson 2017 Research anthropologists www.anthropologyfromtheshed.com The writings of colonial recorders have often misrepresented Aboriginal people as deriving most of their food from the hunting of large game (kangaroo, wallaby, emu) when in fact the bulk of their diet (around 80%) was based on vegetable foods and small game, for example, lizards, goannas, snakes, insect larvae, rodents and small marsupials many of which are now endangered or extinct. Grub eating was looked down upon as an aberrant, opportunistic and almost degenerate means of human survival. This practice, like other unfamiliar food traditions such as indigenous geophagy (earth-eating) that we have described in a separate paper (www.anthropologyfromtheshed.com) only reinforced the colonial idea that the Aborigines of southwestern Australia, like those in other parts of Australia, were subhuman, uncivilized and deserved to be colonized by the economically, culturally and technologically superior ‘civilized’ white people. Little did the colonial superiors realize that traditional Nyungar knowledge of environmental, botanical, biological, phenological, ecological and entomological phenomena was heavily steeped in science and mythology and that this could have become a valuable asset to the colonizers had they wished to avail themselves of this knowledge. Nyungar people used a range of environmental and astronomical indicators for predicting weather, seasonality, animal breeding patterns, movements and so on. They understood how humans, animals, plants and all of life were interconnected and this awareness was manifest in their complicated web of kinship and totemistic affiliations, rituals and mythology. Even anthropology graduates often have great difficulty comprehending the intricacies of these classificatory totemic kin relationships that bonded humans to their natural world.

AUSTRALIA DAY THE READING / TAPESCRIPT Australia Day is celebrated annually on January the 26th. It is an official national holiday and most Australians take the day off work. All schools close. Australia Day commemorates the creation of the first British settlement in Australia in 1788. Captain Arthur Phillip, the very first Governor of New South Wales, set up a community to run a prison in what is now Sydney. The earliest records of Australia Day date back to 1808. Not all Australians celebrate this day. Many Aboriginal Australians do not like the idea of a day to celebrate the British landing. Aborigines have dubbed the 26 January as "Invasion Day" or "Survival Day". The latter name celebrates the fact that the Aboriginal peoples and culture have not been wiped out. The Prime Minister announces the Australian of the Year on the eve of Australia Day. This goes to the Australian who has made a "significant contribution to the Australian community and nation and is an inspirational role model for the Australian community". There are many other celebrations across the country, including many spectacular fireworks displays. The biggest one is in Perth, capital of Western Australia.

This process aligns with an affirming narrative of Indigenous persistence that, despite the context of colonial dispossession, can lead to a positive, self-determined future. In 2007, senior Noongar of the Wirlomin clan in the south coast region of Western Australia initiated Wirlomin Noongar Language and Stories Inc., an organisation set up to facilitate cultural and linguistic revitalisation by combining community-held knowledge with documentation and recordings repatriated from the archives. Fieldnotes created in 1931 from discussions with local Aboriginal people at Albany, Western Australia have inspired the collaborative production of six illustrated bilingual books.

  • Eucalyptus Oil Industry Introduction & History
    Eucalyptus oil industry Introduction & history The eucalyptus oil story began in 1788 in Australia, when Surgeon-General John White, distilled oil from a eucalypt he called ‘Sydney Peppermint’. He sent the oil back to England where it was found to be ‘more efficacious in treating colic than English peppermint’. And with that the use of eucalyptus oil in medicinal products began. The antiseptic and healing properties were already known by aboriginal communities. In South Africa – started in 1950’s, when Marc Spraggen started producing eucalyptus oil on his farm Goede Hoop, in Mpumalanga. In the 1960’s, Richard Lunt, diversified his forestry operations and started Busby Essential Oils.
