Aboriginal cultural values framework: Producing and communicating Bunurong values and meanings within Bunurong Country
This article discusses social spaces within Bunurong Country, Australia, and the production and recording of Aboriginal cultural values. Among the broader Australian community, there is a considerable appetite for the incorporation of 'authentic' Aboriginal cultural values into various Western processes, such as the planning, heritage and environmental sectors. This article argues that by establishing Aboriginal control of how these values are pr…

Beyond ‘contact’ and shared landscapes in Australian archaeology
The concept of ‘contact’ in Australian archaeology used to describe early cross-cultural interactions between Indigenous people and Europeans has become outdated and requires revisiting. In the USA, Silliman and Jordan both moved away from the idea of ‘contact’ as it undermines the power disconnect between the colonised and coloniser. Jordan proposes a two-tiered approach to these cross-cultural encounters: cultural entanglement and colonialism. …
Taking control of the production of heritage: Country and cultural values in the assessment of Aboriginal cultural heritage significance
Cultural heritage management produces hundreds of archaeological assessments each year. However, the level of input from Aboriginal people into the significance assessment of places uncovered during this commercial archaeological work is minimal at best. Assessment outcomes continue to privilege scientific archaeological concepts of significance. To address this, the Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation has led the development of a tailor…

Results of archaeological surveys of the Pianamu cultural landscape, central Cape York Peninsula, 2014-2016
This paper presents preliminary results of archaeological investigation of the northern Cape York Peninsula highlands, the homelands of the Kuuku I'yu (northern Kaanju) people. Despite intensive and long-term research programs elsewhere in Cape York Peninsula, no previous archaeological work has been undertaken in this particular region. The aim of this research was to identify the location of archaeological places and artefacts throughout the Ka…

The ‘taphonomy’ of the Australian great bowerbird within the Wenlock Goldfields, Cape York Peninsula Queensland
Bowerbirds are well known for their unique courtship behaviour during which, in an attempt to attract a mate, a male builds a ‘bower’ or small enclosed structure of woven sticks and pebbles and decorates it with bright shiny objects. The bower provides shade and a place for the male’s elaborate courtship dance. This article was prompted by the discovery of an elaborate bower constructed by an Australian Great Bowerbird, Chlamydera nuchalis. The b…
Wiyohpiyata: Lakota Images of the Contested West
The Wiyohpiyata exhibition is based on the story of an ordinary ledger book that was stolen by Lakota Sioux during an 1868 raid on a European prospector near the Big Horn Mountains. The exhibit is
Hard and Soft Power and the Cultural Heritage Industry: An Australian example
This paper will address the question: Does development-based archaeological work in the Pilbara lead to management outcomes that adequately protect Indigenous heritage values? This question will be addressed from three perspectives; firstly from that of the developers, secondly from the heritage community and thirdly from the position of Indigenous stakeholders. The overall scope of this argument will be based on recent archaeological consultancy…
