21.01.2022 MAJOR MITCHELL SAW STOOKED HAY FOR MILES - PRE-INVASION In the early 1800s Major Thomas Mitchell set out to survey NSW. He came back with stories of fields of g...rain which reached the horizon, hay-like bundles and earth turned up as if it had been ploughed by a hoe. These were not the farms of Mitchells fellow colonisers, though. These were Aboriginal practices. Mitchell rode through nine miles of stooked grain. His fellow explorers said it looked like an English field of harvest. "This is an enormous devotion of labour and ingenuity and couldnt be described as hunting and gathering in any way, says researcher and writer Bruce Pascoe "If we assume explorers and anthropologists like Sir Thomas Mitchell, Charles Sturt, Edward Eyre, Ernest Giles, Alfred Howitt, George Robinson, Augustus Gregory, John McKinlay, Peter Warburton and others were not committing porkies in their diaries, then let us look at the blot from their witness. If you saw people excavating earth to build a dam, tamping clay and ant bed into the base to make it waterproof, if you saw them plant seed saved from last years harvest and irrigate that planting from the dam or stream diversion or blocking off an entire stream to cause it to flood across the grain field, if you saw that grain field harvested and stooked, if you saw the green crop bundled behind brush fences and burnt so that dried grain fell into storage vessels, if you saw the grain ground on large mills, if you saw the excess stored in stone silos, skin bladders or mud and straw rendered vessels, if you saw people herding young waterfowl into a stockyard for fattening, if you saw engineers constructing thousands of kilometres of water races, tunnelling through rock, gauging the hydrology to within millimetres, if you saw permanent fishing weirs built so that the fences flattened with the incoming tide and could be erected on the outgoing to trap fish in storage ponds, if you saw a stone house with vegetables growing on the turf roof, if the door of that house had a message telling neighbours where the occupants had gone that day, if that house overlooked the landscape of weirs and tuber fields, if the oven outside that house had been swept in readiness for that nights meal, if you saw that baskets inside the house were full of fruit or wrapped parcels of smoked fish and preserved plums, if you saw those things, what would you call those people?

19.01.2022 New in today, available in store and our Online Shop. Songs for Aboriginal Studies and Reconciliation This book and CD is suitable for kindergarten through to adults. Includes 17 songs on CD and songbook with lyrics, guitar chords, melody line and lots of colour photos and teaching ideas.... Some songs are sung by Buck, an Adnyamathanha man from the Flinders Ranges in South Australia and some are sung by the South Australian Public Primary Schools Festival of Music Choir and other students. Some songs are about Reconciliation, some tell Dreaming stories, some about feelings and some for fun. The seventeen mesmerizing songs written by Buck McKenzie in this splendid compilation are a celebration of urban and rural Aboriginal life and culture. Each song has a tune which inspires singers, and many - such as Idnya the Native Cat and Magpie, Crow, and Eagle - carry stories filled with humour and linked to the Dreaming. The delicious lyrics roll off the tongue, are quirky and illustrative, and yet contain a sense of home and belonging. The songs actually get under your skin, and you cant help but sing them again and again! This CD and accompanying song book is a welcome addition to the Aboriginal musical repertoire for primary and secondary children. Its beauty of tone, with accompanying acoustic guitar and piano, support its authenticity. It is a delight to listen to, sing along with, and offers choral opportunities that will inspire as well.

16.01.2022 NEW ACADEMIC PAPER Descriptions of cosmic impacts and meteorite falls are found throughout Australian Aboriginal oral traditions. In some cases, these texts des...cribe the impact event in detail, sometimes citing the location, suggesting that the events were witnessed. We explore whether cosmic impacts and meteorite falls may have been witnessed by Aboriginal Australians and incorporated into their oral traditions ... From the Introduction Australia is home to hundreds of Aboriginal groups, each with a distinct language and culture, stretching back more than 40,000 years. Many Australian Aboriginal cultures possess strong oral traditions and complex social systems, including narratives and oral texts that have been handed down over many generations. Threaded through these texts are accounts of geological events such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis as well as descriptions of the origins of mountains and islands. In some cases, the description indicates that these events were witnessed, resulting in a significant impact on that community, as suggested by Norman Tindale, who stated that "Aboriginal myths may occasionally refer to some half-remembered cataclysm of nature, or an eclipse, or a meteoric shower". The study of how geological events or geographical features and materials are incorporated into oral traditions is referred to as geomythology. This article focuses on oral texts relating to meteorite falls and cosmic impacts. Using the hypothesis that oral texts can serve as historical records of past geological events (Masse, Barber, Piccardi, and Barber 2007), we examine these records for information that could be used to locate new meteoritic sites, model meteoritic events, or measure the antiquity of dreaming stories. Scientific data from these events, including the age, location, and impact effects, can assist in understanding the nature and evolution of oral traditions over time. www.academia.edu Link to paper: http://tiny.cc/x95ssz

13.01.2022 Now available in store and online// A History of Aboriginal Sydney By Dennis Foley and Peter Read... What the Colonists Never Knew paints a vivid picture of what it was like to grow up Aboriginal in Sydney, alongside the colonists, from 1788 to the present. Peter Reads exploration of the history of Aboriginal Sydney is interwoven with Dennis Foleys memories of his own Gai-mariagal country, taking readers on a journey through the regions past. This book offers an honest account of the disappointment, pain and terror experienced by Sydneys First Peoples, and celebrates the survival of their spirit and their culture. "This is a mesmerising read. It flows from rich anecdotal remembrance loaded with song and lore to incisive commentary about legislation and then slips seamlessly into detailed evocation of pre-colonial life. I have always loved Foleys ability to bring a story to life and Reads measured but uncompromising analysis I love this bloody book" BRUCE PASCOE author of Dark Emu: Aboriginal Australia and the Birth of Agriculture "There has never been a book like this before. Dazzling, revelatory, unheralded". MELISSA LUCASHENKO author of Mullumbimby and Too Much Lip "Come into this book to find a Sydney that many of us have never seen. This is a Sydney which to this day belongs to a network of vivid, tenacious, funny and courageous Aboriginal people. Dennis and Peter are both master storytellers and they bring to us the rich and moving stories of people who lived on and travelled around the paths and waterways of the city, to keep close to the people and country they cared about".
