Book Synopsis Between the Murray and the Sea by : David Frankel
Download or read book Between the Murray and the Sea written by David Frankel and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between the Murray and the Sea: Aboriginal Archaeology in South-eastern Australia explores the Indigenous archaeology of Victoria, focusing on areas south and east of the Murray River. Looking at multiple sites from the region, David Frankel considers what the archaeological evidence reveals about Indigenous society, migration, and hunting techniques. He looks at how an understanding of the changing environment, combined with information drawn from 19th-century ethnohistory, can inform our interpretation of the archaeological record. In the process, he investigates the nature of archaeological evidence and explanation, and proposes approaches for future research. ‘A carefully crafted and impressively illustrated depiction of the economic and social lives of past Aboriginal peoples who lived in the diverse landscapes that existed between the Murray and the sea. This book will be valuable to both specialists and non-specialists alike, as it provides a foundation for thinking about the remarkable variety of ways Aboriginal foragers adapted to the lands of southeastern Australia.’ Peter Hiscock, Tom Austen Brown Professor of Australian Archaeology, University of Sydney

Book Synopsis After Captain Cook by : Rodney Harrison
Download or read book After Captain Cook written by Rodney Harrison and published by Rowman Altamira. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original papers collected in this pioneering volume address the historical archaeology of Aboriginal Australia and its application in researching the shared history of Aboriginal and settler Australians. The authors draw on case studies from across the continent to show how archaeology can illuminate the continuum of responses by indigenous Australians to European settlement and colonization. Taking an innovative approach to the relationship between archaeological theory and contemporary Australian history, the book also examines the role of archaeology in current debates over Aboriginal land rights and the role of 'post-contact' archaeology in cultural heritage management. An introduction by the series editors places the Australian material in the context of indigenous archaeological studies worldwide. The volume will be of interest to academic and public archaeologists, indigenous people, anthropologists, historians, and heritage managers who deal with indigenous communities.

Book Synopsis Modern Archaeology and Its Reflection in the Value System of Contemporary Culture by : Boris Deunert
Download or read book Modern Archaeology and Its Reflection in the Value System of Contemporary Culture written by Boris Deunert and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 1996 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book asks the question: How can archaeologists work closely together with Aboriginal people and in a way that can mutually benefit both parties involved, concerning the research outcome for the scientist and giving Aborigines a proven base for the prehistory they are aiming to identify with, but are not willing to explore in detail themselves? The author seeks answers to this and related questions through a two-pronged research approach, via interviews with and actively evolving questionnaires completed by contemporary Aboriginal participants, and through archaeological research into stone technology. These investigational tools and their interaction exemplify the dilemma modern science has to face when working in a field where not only the exchange of knowledge between two diverse cultures is being questioned, but also cultural assimilation in both directions.

Download or read book Crafting Country written by Caroline Bird and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on ten years of surveys and excavations in Nyiyaparli country in the eastern Chichester Ranges, north-west Australia, Crafting Country provides a unique synthesis of Holocene archaeology in the Pilbara region. The analysis of about 1000 sites, including surface artefact scatters and 19 excavated rock shelters, as well as thousands of isolated artefacts, takes a broad view of the landscape, examining the distribution of archaeological remains in time and space. Heritage compliance archaeology commonly focuses on individual sites, but this study reconsiders the evidence at different scales - at the level of artefact, site, locality, and region - to show how Aboriginal people interacted with the land and made their mark on it. Crafting Country shows that the Nyiyaparli 'crafted' their country, building structures and supplying key sites with grindstones, raw material and flaked stone cores. In so doing, they created a taskscape of interwoven activities linked by paths of movement.
