Combining Indigenous and maritime archaeological approaches: experiences and insights from the '(Re)locating Narrunga Project', Yorke Peninsula, South Australia
No full textThis paper details the unique pairing of Indigenous and maritime archaeological approaches in the '(Re)locating Narrunga Project'. Narrunga was a ketch built by the Narungga Aboriginal community at Point Pearce Mission (Yorke Peninsula, South Australia) at the turn of the twentieth century and later sunk in the 1940s. It is argued that convergences between the scholarly interests of Indigenous and maritime archaeological approaches have been slow to develop and that maritime archaeology as a sub-discipline has not capitalized on the insights that can be gained from collaborative approaches between communities and practitioners. Similarly, Indigenous communities in Australia have had few opportunities to work with researchers to record their maritime heritage. As is evident in the Narrunga story told in this research, non-Indigenous records have been complicit in underplaying the maritime achievements and skills of Narungga people and collaborative research can work towards decolonizing this pastAmy Roberts, Jennifer McKinnon, Clem O'Loughlin, Klynton Wanganeen, Lester-Irabinna Rigney, Madeline Fowle
The ‘very stillness of things’: object biographies of sailcloth and fishing net from the Point Pearce Aboriginal Mission (Burgiyana) colonial archive, South Australia
No full textThis article details the discovery of early twentieth-century sailcloth and fishing-net samples pertaining to the lives of Aboriginal peoples on Point Pearce Aboriginal Mission (Burgiyana). Biographies for the samples are explored, from which it is argued that these objects may have many viewpoints assigned to them. The sailcloth and fishing-net samples allow the telling of complex stories from the past and present. These stories include the resilience, adaptability and strength of Narungga culture when exposed to colonial contextual risk. Indeed, these objects reveal the efforts of missions and government agencies to control the lives of Aboriginal peoples (through the lenses of ‘racism’, paternalism and self-interest), as well as agency and the involvement of Aboriginal peoples in capitalist economies. Objects as subjects can also reveal ongoing struggles for traditional and commercial fishing rights – with the aforementioned being informed by the traditional knowledge and lived experiences of Narungga peoples

A meta-analysis of six prospective studies of falling in Parkinson's disease
No full textRecurrent falls are a disabling feature of Parkinson's disease (PD). We have estimated the incidence of falling over a prospective 3 month follow-up from a large sample size, identified predictors for falling for PD patients repeated this analysis for patients without prior falls, and examined the risk of falling with increasing disease severity. We pooled six prospective studies of falling in PD (n = 473), and examined the predictive power of variables that were common to most studies. The 3-month fall rate was 46% (95% confidence interval: 38-54%). Interestingly, even among subjects without prior falls, this fall rate was 21% (12-35%). The best predictor of falling was two or more falls in the previous year (sensitivity 68%; specificity 81%). The risk of falling rose as UPDRS increased, to about a 60% chance of falling for UPDRS values 25 to 35, but remained at this level thereafter with a tendency to taper off towards later disease stages. These results confirm the high frequency of falling in PD, as almost 50% of patients fell during a short period of only 3 months. The strongest predictor of falling was prior falls in the preceding year, but even subjects without any prior falls had a considerable risk of sustaining future falls. Disease severity was not a good predictor of falls, possibly due to the complex U-shaped relation with falls. Early identification of the very first fall therefore remains difficult, and new prediction methods must be developed
Gunditjmara and Ngarrindjeri: Case Studies of Indigenous Self-government
No full textChapters 9.1 (by Tim Rowse and Jennifer Green) and 9.2 (by Daryle Rigney, Denis Rose, Alison Vivian, Miriam Jorgensen, Steve Hemming and Shaun Berg) present case studies of past and present of Indigenous governance. In 9.1 Rowse and Green show that Arrernte jurisdiction has persisted in certain ways in Alice Springs/Mparntwe since the 1870s, notwithstanding the colonists’ expectation – at least until the reforms of ‘welfare colonialism’ in the 1970s – that ‘detribalisation’ was rapidly and inevitably extinguishing customary law. Their chapter outlines some episodes of recognition that have arisen from the overlapping of two systems of law in a space inhabited by both Arrernte and non-Arrernte people. The first example discussed is the acknowledgement and protection of sacred sites, and the second the decreasing accommodation of customary law within the criminal law. In 9.2 Rigney et al explore the experiences of two Aboriginal nations, the Gunditjmara People and the Ngarrindjeri Nation, asserting their status as distinct peoples and, in so doing, demonstrating their capacity to achieve their Indigenous Nation Building goals. While both face significant challenges in establishing Indigenous self-governing systems and accommodating them within the Australian federation, their intention to self-govern according to Gunditjmara and Ngarrindjeri norms is indisputable
