The papers are organized around six broad headings: research papers and reports, tertiary program descriptions, teacher education, community initiatives, language, and health education. Two additional sections contain the Coolangata Statement--the conference's "declaration of indigenous people's education rights--and a complete set of workshop abstracts and presenter information. The presentations deal with a wide range of indigenous educational issues in the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. They demonstrate that indigenous definition and control of the educational agenda has progressed on several fronts in all of the nations represented at the conference. A tidal wave of initiatives is under way, aimed at placing indigenous beliefs, values, knowledge systems, and ways of knowing into the educational arena at all levels.

Although the papers included here reflect only a small portion of the workshops put on by over 250 presenters, they do provide a good sampling of the range of cultural and educational initiatives represented at the conference. The papers have been organized around seven broad headings (each separated by a colored insert page): research papers and reports; tertiary program descriptions; teacher education; community initiatives; language; health education; and the Coolangata Statement. A complete set of workshop abstracts and presenter contact information is also included at the end. In reviewing the issues that were discussed in the workshops, it is clear that indigenous definition and control of the educational agenda has progressed on several fronts in all of the nations represented at the conference. While much work remains to be done, a tidal wave of initiatives is underway aimed at placing indigenous beliefs, values, knowledge systems and ways of knowing into the educational arena at all levels. The indigenous paradigms reflected in the workshops are at the heart of the cultural and educational renewal efforts that are emerging in indigenous communities throughout the world, and the tide will continue to build until education is reintegrated into the lives and worldview of the people it serves. Most of the compiled workshop papers are included here in the original form in which they were submitted by the authors, without the benefit of formal editing for format consistency. In the interest of making as much information available as possible, I included most of the articles that were submitted, even though some are little more than an outline of the original presentation. I apologize for the lack of editorial refinements, but we were short on both time and resources to do much more than pull the articles together in one place. Still, I think you will find much useful and unique information in this document. This collection of papers addressing contemporary indigenous education issues is dedicated to the memory of Whare Te Moana, who was a strong supporter of the goals of the WIPC:E and contributed a workshop/paper (along with his wife Rachel Selby) to the conference and to this volume. His spirit flourishes in the good work that is underway in Aotearoa,

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.

Macintosh, University of Sydney (Figs. 1-9) (Plates XIX-XXVII) Manuscript received 20.9.61 PREVIOUS LITERATURE The rock engravings in the main gallery, and the paintings in the" Big Cave", have been described briefly, and some of the main carvings and paintings illustrated, by Pulleine (1926), Riddell (1928), Barrett (1929 and 1943), Davidson (1936), Black (1943 and 1949), and McCarthy (1957 and 1958). Pulleine's claim (op. cit. 80) that he recorded all of the motifs at Mootwingee is far from being the case. These papers indicated that Mootwingee was an important comparative site on the eastern extremity of the full intaglio pecking technique, and a complete recording was therefore decided upon.

Well here it is. At last the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Thesaurus, is ready. However, although this edition is ready, I foresee that there will be a need for another and another, because language is fluid and will change over time. As one of the compilers of the thesaurus I am glad it is finally completed and available for use.
