09.01.2022 Ngambri Elder Matilda House: 'Whenever you look behind you, you can always see your footprints' What wise words which so eloquently encompass what heritage is all about.... Matilda spoke yesterday of her memories of camping with her grandparents at a site which is now nestled in suburban Canberra. ANU masters student Steve Skitmore with Dr Duncan Wright and Dave Johnston undertook an archaeological excavation at the site just near Manuka based on Matilda's memories and have helped the site be nominated to the ACT Heritage Register. #heritagefest17 #heritagenearme #canberra #anuheritage
