Signature of Author Date _______________ iii Abstract Historical evidence suggests that at the time of European settlement in the NSW Illawarra region, Dharawal groups, who came together for ceremonies, had an established regional network with movement of people, and items, via pathways linking the highlands west of the Illawarra escarpment and the coastal plain. The degree to which the established network described in European accounts reflects pre- colonial patterns or activity affected by early colonial settlement is unclear, however. This thesis examines this topic by comparing archaeological and historical evidence. Ground edged hatchets, and raw material for their manufacture, are known to have moved within Aboriginal social networks and several sites in the Dharawal region have been identified as likely sources of stone for hatchets and other tools. Non- destructive archaeological provenancing of 148 ground edged hatchets from coastal plain and inland findspots in and adjacent to the Dharawal study area provides an opportunity to characterise pre-colonial patterns of raw material use, and movement of artefacts from source to find-spot. Matches to sources within Dharawal country, as well as beyond the region, trace the local and inter-regional social network within which these artefacts and/or raw materials moved. This provenancing research is a component of a broader, Australian Research Council funded, study of Aboriginal exchange systems and social networks in Southeastern Australia 2012-14: Axes, Exchange, Social Change: New Perspectives on Australian Hunter Gatherers (DP12010393), directed by Peter Grave (University of New England) and Val Attenbrow (Australian Museum). Spatial reconstruction of Early European observations of movement and gathering of Aboriginal people across, and into and out of Dharawal country between 1788 and 1850, allows archaeological and historical social network patterns to be directly compared. Results suggest significant correlation between the two, as well as consistency in the historical pattern over time. This evidence suggests pathways linking Dharawal groups socially and economically, in place prior to the arrival of Europeans, continued to be used throughout the first fifty years of European iv colonisation. These results that support and enhance previous research findings in the region. Evidence that this cultural pattern may have remained stable through a period of known social upheaval suggests that the network of pathways interconnecting Dharawal groups, pathways aligned with the distinctive physiography of country, may have also been stable through earlier times of change. If so, this may also shed light on the nature, and function, of this network in the culturally, socially and environmentally dynamic, deeper past. v Acknowledgements Acknowledgement and thanks go, first and foremost, to my Honours supervisors Martin Gibbs (formerly University of Sydney, now University of New England), Val Attenbrow (Australian Museum) and Pat Faulkner (University of Sydney). As my teacher and then supervisor Martin provided encouragement, unwavering support and insightful guidance through a long journey. I’m grateful not only for the time and effort Martin invested in teaching and mentoring me, but for having had the opportunity to be his student. The opportunity to work under the supervision of Val Attenbrow at the Australian Museum and have access to her guidance and practical assistance has been inspirational, both academically and personally. Val’s wisdom, knowledge and enthusiasm for archaeological research are well known. It is her generosity and gift for mentoring that I wish to acknowledge and thank Val for, foremost, here. Completion of this project owes much to her support and confidence in its success. Pat’s offer to step in as supervisor following Martin’s departure, deserves thanks in its own right – not, I imagine, an easy task. Pat’s expertise and substantial contribution in guiding this thesis to completion is greatly appreciated. Thank you to the Australian Museum, and volunteers and staff who assisted with this project. Tessa Corkill, a font of wisdom, generously shared her time, knowledge and expertise. Thank you to Rebecca Bryant for her many contributions, and to Marika Lowe, who assisted with pXRF analysis. A special note of thanks to Hugh Watt, who’s assistance with pXRF analysis and artefact recording, management of artefact photography and editing was a major contribution. Thank you also to Australian Museum geologists Ross Pogson and Lin Sutherland, and to staff Robin Torrence and Alison Dejanovic for advice and assistance. Thank you to the University of Sydney and staff, in particular Roland Fletcher and Lesley Beaumont. A note of thanks also to members of archaeological and aboriginal communities that provided advice, discussion, recommendations, reference material, access to reports and publications and general support and guidance – Caryll Sefton, Gwenda Happ, Paul Irish, Steve Paxton, Robert Lester and others. Thank you to Wollongong Library for permission to publish images and generosity in providing a high-resolution copy of the cover artwork. Thanks in particular to Marisa and vi Lisa for arranging access to reports and images. Thank you also to the National Library of Australia for permitting images and maps from their collection to be included. The ground-edged hatchet provenancing component of this research was funded by Australian Research Council Discovery Grant DP120103993. Thank you to Axes ARC project directors Peter Grave (University of New England) and, again, Val Attenbrow (Australian Museum), for the opportunity to be a part of this project and for training, assistance and support provided. Bruce Kaiser, Chief Scientist, Bruker ASX, assisted with various aspects of this project. Acknowledgement is due also to all those whose previous research laid groundwork for this study. Michael Organ’s compilations of historical accounts relating to Aboriginal people in the Illawarra and Shoalhaven made this research design feasible. The work of Paul Irish and co-authors, Michael Bennett and Caryll Sefton in the study area and the publication Wesson (2005 were also central. No reference to laying of groundwork for this research topic can be made without also pausing to acknowledge, respectfully and with some awe, the work of Isabel McBryde. There are many others – for the sake of brevity, acknowledgement in citation will need to suffice. On a personal note, thank you to my children Jay, Cassy and Zac for patient, self-sufficient loveliness, and other forms of loveliness, throughout this project. Thank you to Euan, for too many things to start mentioning here. Thanks also to extended family with too many people to start mentioning here either. Finally, and importantly, the author acknowledges and pays respect to the traditional owners of country and custodians of knowledge referred to in this thesis – an acknowledgement extended not only to the Dharawal groups of the study area, but to all those whose connections to, and links with the Dharawal are examined herein. vii Table of Contents Abstract iv Acknowledgements vi Table of Contents viii List of Figures xii List of Tables xviii CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION AND RESEARCH AIMS 1 Introduction 1 Case Study – Dharawal Country 5 Research Aims

  • NSW Budget- $108 Million Bus Boost
    Andrew Constance Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Gladys Berejiklian Treasurer Minister for Industrial Relations MEDIA RELEASE Tuesday, 14 June 2016 NSW BUDGET: $108 MILLION BUS BOOST Double decker buses will serve some of Sydney’s busiest routes, and around 3,800 extra weekly services will be added as part of a $108 million investment in new buses in the 2016- 17 NSW Budget, Minister for Transport and Infrastructure Andrew Constance and Treasurer Gladys Berejiklian announced today. The 80 seat double deckers can carry 65 per cent more capacity than normal size buses, and will be used on key corridors including the busy Rouse Hill-City service (route 607X), between Blacktown and Macquarie Park (route 611), and for the first time, the Liverpool- Parramatta Transitway (route T80). “Thousands of Sydneysiders rely on bus travel every day to get from A to B and we know demand for services is continually increasing, particularly in growth centres in the North West and South West, as well as in inner city areas like Green Square,” Mr Constance said. “This is all about staying ahead of the curve to ensure customers have sufficient levels of service well into the future. “Since coming to office, the NSW Government has delivered more than 15,800 extra weekly public transport services for customers and today’s announcement is further proof that we’re committed to putting on even more where and when they’re needed most.” Ms Berejiklian said the Government would continue to fund more services and infrastructure in the upcoming Budget. “These double decker buses have allowed us to deliver good customer outcomes and we are pleased to be rolling out more of them across Sydney,” the Treasurer said.

Beitr. 25/2 833-911 31.12.1993 The Australian species of Dolichopeza CURTIS (Diptera: Tipulidae) G. THEISCHINGER Abstract: The Australian species of the genus Dolichopeza CURTIS are reviewed. For the time being they all are assigned to Dolichopeza s. str. Lectotypes are designated for seven species. One taxon previously regarded as a subspecies is given füll specific rank, and one species is synonymized. In total 28 previously described species are recognized. The males of two of those species previously known only from the female, and the females of th- ree of those species previously known only from the male, are introduced, and 18 species are described as new. A key is presented to species groups as recognized in this paper (males only). Key-words: Dolichopeza, revision; Australian species. Introduction The first description of an Australian species of Dolichopeza CURTIS was presented by MACQUART (1846) under Apeilesis cinerea. To this SKUSE (1890) added seven more species, and ALEXANDER (1920, 1924, 1928a, 1928b, 1930, 1934, 1937, 1944) contributed another 19 taxa of the species group. However, only SKUSE (1890) provided illustrations, for four of his species. DOBROTWORSKY (1974) revised the Australian members of Do- lichopeza. He (DOBROTWORSKY 1974) synonymized one of ALEXANDER'S species, attributed full specific rank to one of ALEXANDER'S subspecies, re- described all previously known species which he recognized, and described three more species.

    Inc. THE ILLAWARRA FLY FISHERS’ CLUB 1989 to 2019 - The First Thirty Years The First Thirty Years - 1989 to 2019 Page 1 FOREWARD As the following document details, 2019 marked the thirtieth anniversary of the Illawarra Fly Fishers’ Club. By any measure, the passage of thirty years is a significant milestone in any endeavour, be it on a personal, social or business basis or, as in the case of the Illawarra Fly Fishers’ Club, the establishment and uninterrupted continuity of a specialist social club. That the Illawarra Fly Fishers’ Club has existed for thirty years is a remarkable achievement. Thirty years ago Bob Hawke was the Prime Minister of Australia, Nick Greiner was the Premier of New South Wales, Australia had, the previous year, celebrated the bi-centenary of the arrival of the First Fleet, acid wash jeans were the rage, the “Game Boy” console was released by Nintendo, Crocodile Dundee II was a hit movie, Madonna’s “Like a Prayer” was the number one music single and for higher education students, the Hawke government had scrapped free University education and introduced the Higher Education Contribution Scheme (HECS) scheme. Whilst the HECS scheme remains, other political and social highlights of the time have, fortunately or unfortunately depending upon your point of view, passed into history. Fortunately for past, current and future members, the Illawarra Fly Fishers’ Club continues to exist and continues to maintain a strong, active and social membership. This is certainly a remarkable achievement on many fronts. Remarkable
