  • Index of Dates from Archaeological Sites in Queensland
    INDEX OF DATES FROM ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES IN QUEENSLAND SEAN ULM AND JILL REID Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies Unit, University of Queensland, Brisbane, Queensland, 4072, Australia This volume presents an indexed compilation of chronometric determinations obtained from archaeological sites in the state of Queensland (including Torres Strait), Australia, to the end of 2000. The list includes conventional radiocarbon (14C), accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS), thermoluminescence (TL) and optically-stimulated luminescence (OSL) determinations. In total, 849 dates are listed from 258 sites. This listing is intended as a reference work only and no analysis of the dataset is undertaken in this volume. Introduction 250 In 1982, Michael Kelly compiled and published a list of radiocarbon and thermoluminescence dates 200 obtained from archaeological sites in Queensland entitled A Practical Reference Source to Radiocarbon 150 Dates Obtained from Archaeological Sites in Queensland.

KOEHN Cooperative Research Centre for Freshwater Ecology, Arthur Rylah Institute for Environmental Research, Heidelberg, Australia SUMMARY 1. The invasion of carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) in Australia illustrates how quickly an introduced fish species can spread and dominate fish communities. This species has become the most abundant large freshwater fish in south-east Australia, now distributed over more than 1 million km2. 2. Carp exhibit most of the traits predicted for a successful invasive fish species. In addition, degradation of aquatic environments in south-east Australia has given them a relative advantage over native species. 3. Derivation of relative measures of 13 species-specific attributes allowed a quantitative comparison between carp and abundant native fish species across five major Australian drainage divisions. In four of six geographical regions analysed, carp differed clearly from native species in their behaviour, resource use and population dynamics. 4. Climate matching was used to predict future range expansion of carp in Australia.

  • ANTS from THREE REMOTE OCEANIC ISLANDS by ROBERT W. TAYLOR and EDWARD O. WILSON Museum, Wellington, New Zealand, for Making Thes
    ANTS FROM THREE REMOTE OCEANIC ISLANDS By ROBERT W. TAYLOR and EDWARD O. WILSON Biological Laboratories, Harvard University The three islands (Raoul, Clipperton, St. Helena) whose ant faunas are. described below have in common only extreme geographic isolation. That ants occur on them at all confirms the idea that these insects, with man's, help, have now populated every part of the earth capable of supporting them. These and other remote oceanic islands will undoubtedly attract more of the ecologist's attention in the future, since many animal taxa inhabiting them, including most or all of the ant species, have only arrived within historical times and present simple case histories of faunas in the first stages of local adaptation. We are grateful to Dr. J. S. Edwards, Dr. C. F. Harbinson, Mr. Arthur Loveridge and Dr. B. A. Holloway of the Dominion Museum, Wellington, New Zealand, for making these unusual collections available. The study has been supported in part by a research grant from the National Science Foundation. RAOUL ISLAND, KERMADEC ISLANDS The Kermadecs are a group of forest-clad volcanic islands lying in the South Pacitc between S. lat., 29.IO and 31.3o; and W. long., 77.45 and 79.00. The nearest sizable land mass is the North Island of New Zealand, about 650 miles to the southwest, and the nearest major Polynesian island is Tongatabu of the Tongan group, aboiat 700 miles to the north. Australia lies about 1,7oo miles to the west. The ants listed below were taken on Raoul or Sunday Island, the largest of the group (I.25 sq.

  • Questions About Sovereignty Have Received Comparatively Little Attention in Australia
    Macquarie Law Journal (2006) Vol 6 5 REVIVING INDIGENOUS SOVEREIGNTY? HENRY REYNOLDS* Questions about sovereignty have received comparatively little attention in Australia. There seems to be nothing much to be discussed; no contentions to be resolved. Unlike the North American Indians or the Maoris, at the time of the European arrival (and long after it), Australian Aborigines were thought to be without laws and government. There was, then, no need for a treaty or treaties. The tribes could never be considered domestic dependent nations with partial, subsidiary sovereignty. Nor had there been any need, as in America, to deal with prior, competing sovereignties – French, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, Mexican, Hawaiian – by means of conquest, cession or purchase. There were no land borders to dispute and delineate. Local history was reassuringly simple. Australia was a land without a sovereign – a territorium nullius - as well as a land where there was no tenure – a terra nullius. When Britain claimed sovereignty in 1788, 1824, 1829 and 1879, the Crown acquired an original title. She was the first sovereign – the only one there had ever been. What is more the Crown also became the beneficial owner of all the land which Australia comprised. Australia was, then, a continent without either frontiers or foreigners – a place where settlers and indigenous alike became subjects of the Crown. In a poem to the process of colonisation W K Hancock declared in 1930: For six generations they [the settlers] have swarmed inland from the sea, pressing forward to their economic frontiers which are the only frontiers Australia knows1 This passage captures so much about settler attitudes.

    EARLY DAYS IN NORTH QUEENSLAND EARLY DAYS IN NORTH QUEENSLAND BY THE LATE EDWARD PALMER SYDNEY ANGUS & ROBERTSON MELBOURNE: ANGUS, ROBERTSON & SHENSTONE 1903 This is a blank page TO THE NORTH-WEST. I know the land of the far, fa y away, Where the salt bush glistens in silver-grey ; Where the emit stalks with her striped brood, Searching the plains for her daily food. I know the land of the far, far west, Where the bower-bird builds her playhouse nest ; Where the dusky savage from day to day, Hunts with his tribe in their old wild way. 'Tis a land of vastness and solitude deep, Where the dry hot winds their revels keep ; The land of mirage that cheats the eye, The land of cloudless and burning sky. 'Tis a land of drought and pastures grey, Where flock-pigeons rise in vast ark ay ; Where the " nardoo" spreads its silvery sheen Over the plains where the floods have beeh. 'Tis a land of gidya and dark boree, Extended o'er plains like an inland sea, Boundless and vast, where the wild winds pass, O'er the long rollers and billows of grass. I made my home in that thirsty land, Where rivers for water are filled with sand ; Where glare and heat and storms sweep by, Where the prairie rolls to the western sky. Cloncurry, 1897. —" Loranthus." W. C. Penfold & Co., Printers, Sydney. PREFACE.
