  • Proposal to Vary Registration of Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural
    STATEMENT OF BASIS ON WHICH THE VICTORIAN ABORIGINAL HERITAGE COUNCIL CONSIDERS IT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE TO VARY THE REGISTRATION AREA OF WURUNDJERI WOI WURRUNG CULTURAL HERITAGE ABORIGINAL CORPORATION DATE OF PROPOSAL: 7 June 2021 1 Council’s View The Victorian Aboriginal Heritage Council (Council) has formed the view that it would be appropriate to exercise its power pursuant to section 155 of the Aboriginal Heritage Act 2006 (Act) to vary the registration area of Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation (WWW). The variation Council considers appropriate relates to some, but not all, of an extension of its registration area sought by WWW.1 2 Procedural Background of Proposal The following section provides a summary of the procedural steps leading to Council’s eventual substantive consideration of whether to exercise its power to vary the area of the WWW’s RAP application area. Council received a written request to vary the registration boundary from WWW in August 2020. It is to this request that this proposal relates. However, the procedural background to consideration of this request involves earlier discussions between WWW and Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation (BLCAC) regarding their respective registration boundaries. It is therefore useful to commence by setting out the procedural background also to the BLCAC registration boundary variation request. In 2017 BLCAC applied to Council for appointment as a registered Aboriginal party (RAP) under s 150 of the Act. Council acknowledged receipt of BLCAC’s RAP application on 24 February 2017. BLCAC’s RAP application was determined for part of the area it applied for on 19 July 2017.

  • The Yalukit-Willam
    THE YALUKIT-WILLAM The First People of Hobsons Bay THE YALUKIT-WILLAM The Aboriginal people who lived in what we now know as the City of Hobsons Bay are known as the Yalukit-willam, a name meaning ‘river camp’ or ‘river dwellers’. The Yalukit-willam are associated with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay that extends from the Werribee River, across to Williamstown, Port Melbourne, St. Kilda, and Prahran. The language of the Melbourne people, includes three dialects, Daung wurrung, Woi wurrung, and Boon wurrung, and is part of a group of related languages collectively known as the Kulin group of languages, or the Kulin Nation. The three Melbourne dialects are referred to as the East Kulin area. The Kulin people, even those who lived great distances from one another, understood each other’s dialects and had an agreement about intermarriage. One of the bonds maintaining this agreement was “moiety affiliation”: The Kulin divided their world into two halves or “moieties”, with one half of the people known as waa (crow) and the other, bunjil (eaglehawk). Individuals were identified with one or other of these moieties and could marry only someone from the other moiety. Belonging to this land were clans, comprising one or two extended families who hunted and gathered together. These families moved through the landscape using their knowledge of the environment and the seasons. The clans were sometimes distinguished by the names of their leading men. Two such leaders of the Yalukit-willam were Benbow and Derrimut. The neighbouring group to the Boon wurrung were known as the Woi wurrung and one of their clans, the Wurundjeri-willam were the neighbours of the Yalukit-willam and as such had custodial obligations and shared rights.

  • PART 1 Diane E
    MAPPING THE PAST: AN ATLAS OF VICTORIAN CLANS 1835-1904 PART 1 Diane E. Barwick This abbreviated account of a long-term study of the Victorian ethnographic record is necessarily a preliminary description, published during Victoria’s ‘sesquicentenary year’ in the hope that my findings may assist other researchers struggling to reconcile the amateur ethnography of nineteenth-century pastoralists, parsons and public servants with modern anthropological accounts of territorial and linguistic boundaries else­ where in Australia. A listing of the names, location and leaders of land-owning groups at the time of the colony’s foundation may, perhaps, encourage public sympathy for the justice of Aboriginal claims for ‘land rights’ and compensation, recently recognised in Parliamentary reports and draft legislation published by the Victorian government. The best-known map of Victorian ‘tribes’ is the continental ‘tribal map’ published in 1940 by South Australian Museum biologist and ethnologist Norman B. Tindale, which was explicitly ‘based principally on recent fieldwork with additions from the literature’. 1 Dr Tindale’s unparalleled record of ethnographic publications dates back to 1925, but it appears that the Victorian fieldwork which shaped this map was under­ taken when he and Dr Joseph Birdsellwere co-leaders of the 1938/39 Harvard-Adelaide Universities Anthropological Expedition. Tindale’s 1940 tribal labels were admittedly the basis for more recent maps of lang­ uage distribution in Victoria — with some amendments resulting from linguistic research during the 1960s and/or consultation of the original notes compiled by amateur ethno­ graphers A.W.
