Bibliography of Printed Literature Upon Victorian Aborigines r Memoirs of the National Museum of Victoria 18 December 1959 https://doi.org/10.24199/j.mmv.1959.24.10 103 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF PRINTED LITERATURE UPON VICTORIAN ABORIGINES. By Aldo Massola, Curator of Anthropology, National Museum of Victoria. INTRODUCTION, This Bibliography, as the name suggests, deals only with printed literature (excluding' newspapers) upon the Aborigines of Victoria. In some eases, however, as in the Monographs by D. S. Davidson, the original papers deal with the Natives of Australia as a whole. These have been included because they contain also Victorian material. The present writer has seen most of the works here enumerated but some Kara Avis he has not seen are included because reference to them is made by reliable Authors. A number of works have been omitted because 1 hei references to the Victorian Aborigines were too scanty, or of no scientific account. The Author hopes that nothing of any importance has been overlooked. If it has, he would be interested to hear about it. The material has been presented in geographic and subjeel divisions, treated together and strictly alphabetically. Every item has been cross-referenced, and an Author Index, referring to the divisions, is added. In dealing with any particular subject or locality, such as, say, Dartmoor, the user of this Bibliography must also remember that Dartmoor is on the (llenelg River, in the Western District, and that reference to it could also he found in works under General. The serious worker must consult all these divisions. In the case of General, tins includes works dealing with Victorian subjects and localities as a whole, such as R. Brough Smyth's " Aborigines of Victoria ", or A. W. Howitt's " Native Tribes of South-East Australia ". Smyth's work, as also K M. Curr's " The Australian Race ", have been dissected, as they contain papers by innumerable Authors. I must acknowledge the great help rendered me by the Librarian of the National Museum of Victoria, Miss J* M. Shaw, B.A., who not only typed the entire proof, hut re-checked almost every reference for proper rendering of Authors' names and dates. I must also thank the Officers of the Public Library of Victoria who have always given me every assistance. To all others who assisted in any way whatever my grateful thanks are offered. 104 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF PRINTED LITERATURE UPON VICTORIAN ABORIGINES REFERENCES. ADMINISTRATION. See Missions. ANTIQUITY.

Identify and explain how did indigenous people impact upon their environment? Indigenous people changed the landscape using fire stick farming which also assisted hunting Aboriginal people used their knowledge of the seasons to optimise hunting, gathering, eel farming and more Aboriginal people used organic local materials to create tools to assist them with hunting and gathering their food i.e. eel traps, woven grass baskets, rock fish traps etc. They only ever took what they needed from the land and had a deep respect and spiritual connection to the land and their surroundings. 2. How are humans impacting on natural resources in today’s society? How does this affect wildlife? When the land is disrespected, damaged or destroyed, this can have real impact on the wellbeing of people, plants and animals. European settlers and modern day humans have caused land degradation by: •Introducing poor farming practices causing land degradation •Introducing noxious weeds •Changing water flow courses and draining wetlands •Introducing feral animals •Destroying habitat through urbanization, logging and farming practices 3.

  • The Gunditjmara Land Justice Story Jessica K Weir
    The legal outcomes the Gunditjmara achieved in the 1980s are often overlooked in the history of land rights and native title in Australia. The High Court Onus v Alcoa case and the subsequent settlement negotiated with the State of Victoria, sit alongside other well known bench marks in our land rights history, including the Gurindji strike (also known as the Wave Hill Walk-Off) and land claim that led to the development of land rights legislation in the Northern Territory. This publication links the experiences in the 1980s with the Gunditjmara’s present day recognition of native title, and considers the possibilities and limitations of native title within the broader context of land justice.

  • Position Description
    Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative Ltd. POSITION DESCRIPTION Disability Support and Domestic Assistance Workers Position Details Manager Disability Services Coordinator Direct Reports Nil Hours Casual hours Monday – Sunday. Some overnight stays and shift hours Location Mackey Street, North Geelong, with frequent travel to the surrounding area. Organisation The name Wathaurong (Wadda-Wurrung) is a recognised tribe (community) which consisted of some 25 clans (family groups) that formed part of the Kulin Nation of Aboriginal people. The traditional boundaries of the Wathaurong people span the coastline from the Werribee River to Lorne peninsula and traverse inland in a north westerly direction towards Ballarat. The Wathaurong people have lived within these regions for more than 25,000 years. As custodians of the Wathaurong lands, we are committed to working together to provide a secure future for our community by upholding the dignity of our ancestors; respecting our Elders and instilling a sense of cultural pride and belonging for our children and children’s children. The Wathaurong Aboriginal Co-operative Ltd was formed by the community in 1978 and registered in 1980, to support the social, economic, and cultural development of Aboriginal people, particularly within the Geelong and surrounding areas. The Co-operative provides a range of services including; family and community services, support to young people, justice support services; cultural heritage services, and health services. From time to time the organisation also undertakes special projects and economic development opportunities. The Co-operative expanded to include a Community Controlled Health Service, which contributes toward addressing the inequality in health status of Aboriginal people. The Wathaurong Health Service supports the general wellbeing of Aboriginal people by providing holistic health care with clinical and primary care services as well as health promoting activities.

  • Important Budj Bim Works Begin Across Five Sites
    Monday, 11 January 2021 IMPORTANT BUDJ BIM WORKS BEGIN ACROSS FIVE SITES Works have started across the Budj Bim Cultural Landscape, as part of the Andrews Labor Government’s support for the Gunditjmara Traditional Owners to protect and develop the land so more Victorians can celebrate its history and cultural significance. Minister for Regional Development Mary-Anne Thomas today visited the site in Victoria’s south west to inspect the progress of works, alongside the region’s Traditional Owners and representatives from Glenelg Shire Council. The Labor Government is investing over $12 million in the project, including $8 million through the Regional Tourism Infrastructure Fund, to improve the tourist infrastructure of the area. The Government investment also contributed to Budj Bim’s successful bid in 2019 to become a UNESCO World Heritage listed site. The works include a new eel aquaculture and information centre, art installations, new raised walkways, a new cantilevered lookout, an upgraded information centre, entrance infrastructure, carparks and interpretive signage. Construction has started on all five project sites within the cultural landscape, including Tyrendarra Township, Kurtonitj, Lake Condah, Tyrendarra Indigenous Protected Area and Budj Bim. Budj Bim hosts the remains of over 300 Aboriginal stone houses – evidence of the Gunditjmara People’s permanent settlement in the area, as well as a sophisticated system of channels, fish traps and weirs used for farming eels. It is the only Australian site to be listed on the UNESCO World Heritage list solely for its Aboriginal cultural values. The new works follow extensive consultation with Traditional Owners over the past 18 months.
