This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous Australians have long understood sustainable hunting and harvesting, seasonal changes in flora and fauna, predator–prey relationships and imbalances, and seasonal fire management. Yet the extent of their knowledge and expertise has been largely unknown and underappreciated by non-Aboriginal colonists, especially in the south-east of Australia where Aboriginal culture was severely fractured. Aboriginal Biocultural Knowledge in South-eastern Australia is the first book to examine historical records from early colonists who interacted with south-eastern Australian Aboriginal communities and documented their understanding of the environment, natural resources such as water and plant and animal foods, medicine and other aspects of their material world. This book provides a compelling case for the importance of understanding Indigenous knowledge, to inform discussions around climate change, biodiversity, resource management, health and education. It will be a valuable reference for natural resource management agencies, academics in Indigenous studies and anyone interested in Aboriginal culture and knowledge.

Book excerpt: Nganbra is an Aboriginal word meaning, according to various sources, 'meeting place' or 'hollow between the breasts.' It was the name given to that part of Australia once occupied by the Ngunnawal people, now the site of the national capital and which, by a process of nineteenth century Anglicization, was transformed from Nganbra to Kanberi, sometimes spelt Khanberry, and thence to Canberra. This poem originated in an idea for a Bicentennial project by my friend, Judith Clingan AM, who composed the music and who has my profound thanks. The Canticle was first performed

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Indigenous history of Australia is a story of change and survival, Sometimes that change has been willing, as Aboriginal people moved their camps closer to white society, seeking access to the goods and customs of colonial Europeans. Sometimes that change has been coercive, forcefully delivered through the laws of a colonial legilasture, or at the end of a squatter's gun. Through acceptance of change, and its resistance, Aboriginal people have survived to become a resilient, modern Australian community. This book explores how two different processes, change and survival, became intertwined during the era of Aboriginal settlements ('missions') in southeastern Australia. It was an era that changed the movement and way of life of Aboriginal people."--p. 1.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Native Tribes of South-East Australia I have endeavoured to show on the maps which accompany this work the range of the several class organisa tions, and the locality in each state, of each tribe referred to. But the reader will kindly bear in mind the great difficulty which always presents itself, not only in defining the true boundaries of any tribal country, but also, in many cases, of giving the true and comprehensive name of the tribe. A member of a clan will probably give its name, and only on closer inquiry will give the name of the tribe of which that clan is a part. It is still more difficult to ascertain the name of what I have termed a nation, that is, of a group which includes two or more kindred tribes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1904 edition. Excerpt: ..."incantations "--words of power, chanted in the belief that supernatural influence is, not asked, but compelled, by them, an influence for evil, or for warding off evil. There are also songs which are only heard at the initiation ceremonies, and which are therefore not known to the uninitiated, or to women. To English ears, unaccustomed to the simple and somewhat monotonous airs to which the words are set, there seems but little melody in the chants. But with custom they grow upon one, until at length one feels in some measure the effect which they produce upon an aboriginal audience in so powerful a manner. There is a wild and pathetic music in some of the songs which I have heard chanted by a number of voices together. Such was the song of Ngalalbal, as I heard it at the Murring Kuringal, and the song of the bat, in which at early dawn the whole of the men joined one by one in chorus, the words describing the bats " flitting about in the dim light which shows between the upper boughs of the trees." The makers of Australian songs, or of the combined songs and dances, are the poets, or bards, of the tribe, and are held in great esteem. Their names are known in the neighbouring tribes, and their songs are carried from tribe to tribe, until the very meaning of the words is lost, as well as the original source of the song. It is hard to say how far and how long such a song may travel in the course of time over the Australian continent. A good example of such far-travelled songs is the following, of which I have heard two versions. One runs as follows: --Malla-malle taria-rara uananga Ngumberanga ye-yandaba I heard it first sung by one of the Narrinyeri in 1861, and afterwards Mr. G. W. Rusden sang it for me from memory, ...
