41. Australian History Mysteries between Aboriginal people and Europeans on the various ‘frontiers’ of Australia—isan important and sensitive aspect of australian history today. http://www.nma.gov.au/ahm/study04.html

SECTION MENU : SUMMARY SAMPLE PAGE GAME TEACHERS' GUIDE ... ORDER FORM SUMMARY It is possible to study individual examples of frontier contact, and try to identify some underlying values, beliefs and causes of events. It can also be valuable to look at how that event has been represented over time by different people. Students are challenged to consider both these interpretations of the event. They carry out an inquiry, calling witnesses and critically analysing the evidence presented. This time, and unlike in 1865, the emphasis is on determining what happened to both the explorers and the Aboriginal people who died as a result of the incident.

Australian history: Towards a Marxist analysis This website contains essays and articles on Australian history from a Marxist perspective. Most have been written by Phil Griffiths, a PhD student at the Australian National University, Canberra, since 1999 and an activist in the International Socialist Organisation and the Refugee Action Committee. These articles and essays are offered as they were written, flaws and all, in the hope that they will be of interest to others trying to understand the development of capitalism in Australia. This website is incomplete; sometime soon I hope to add a short essay on what a Marxist history of Australia would need to address. I would love to get feedback: email me at phil.griffiths@optusnet.com.au Links to other historical, political and activist sites NEW: June 2003: Footsoldiers for capital: The influence of RSL racism on interwar industrial relations in Kalgoorlie and Broken Hill . This PhD thesis by Dr Sarah Gregson is a major contribution to the historical debate over racism and class in Australia. She sees the RSL as an elite-dominated, cross-class organisation with links to every section of society, and argues that the RSL was a significant agitator for migrant exclusion and white unity in the interwar period. In this context, labour movement responses to migrant labour incorporated a range of different strategies, from demands for racist exclusion to moves towards international solidarity.

Bringing Australian History to our youth through music Folk songs are exciting representations of the past and can tell us much about our history, culture and national identity. In many countries through the world folk songs have been used by people to pass on their oral history from one generation to the next. Australian History is rich with folk songs of the past. Songs about courageous voyages of discovery; the clash of cultures and the damage done to people and the environment; the struggles and conquests of pioneer life; the excitement of the gold rush years; the sadness of the depression; the impact of war and the contribution of great Australians to our way of life. Today old folk songs are still being sung, and new ones created, written and recorded by people such as Dennis O'Keeffe. In addition to his well publicized work on Waltzing Matilda, Dennis also devotes part of his time to tours schools in an attempt to encourage young Australians to explore their past through music. The History Teachers' Association of Victoria recognized the importance of Dennis's work and have produced a syllabus for six of his songs which are available in kit form for schools throughout Australia (years 7 to 9). The kit has been designed to encourage young Australians to investigate Australian History through folk songs. Anyone interested in obtaining the kit may do so by contacting the association at the following address;

Monash: Library home: Exhibitions: History: Rare Books Exhibition Early Australian History 6 April - 30 June 2000 Virtual Exhibition You may also read the text of the catalogue online. To understand our past we must be aware of it. The Australiana section of the Monash Rare Book Collection allows researchers to approach more closely to the experience of our ancestors. We find there the accounts of the early discoverers, settlers and explorers. The conditions under which they lived and their response to Australia's native inhabitants can be understood much better if we read what they wrote. The gold rushes, the traveller's accounts, the preoccupations of our forebears, such as the affair of the Tichborne Claimant, all take on an added dimension when we are able to re-live them in detail through the study of the contemporary texts. We have on display most of the landmark Australiana volumes: Dampier's account, Captain Cook's three voyages, the First Fleet Journals, the key exploration accounts, as well as such natural history classics as Gould's

Australian History of Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing Introduction Imports and Exports of Raw Material Transition Period Present Situation Introduction Boas (1947) states that the manufacture of veneer and plywood in Australia first occurred in 1907. Messrs, Beale and Co. of Sydney used machines for slicing and sawing veneers for use in piano manufacture. The first rotary lathe was placed into production approximately eight years later. The lathe was used to peel hoop pine to manufacture 3-ply plywood, and was installed in Brisbane by McG Williams. In 1916 Messers, Brims and Co. established a plywood mill at Yeerongpilly in Brisbane. This mill grew rapidly into a modern plant for its time, but was destroyed by fire in 1943. In 1944, the total of veneer and plywood mills in Australia reached 25, with a total annual production of 140 000 000 square feet of plywood. At this time the industry was based in Queensland with other mills scattered throughout Australia. The species utilised in each state in 1944 are as follows; Queensland Eleven plants peeled hoop and kauri pine, and also scrub woods such as silky oak, Queensland maple silver ash, satin sycamore and rose alder. Three of these plants also operated slicers utilising mainly walnut, Queensland maple, and silky oak.

The Little Bitch from Down Under* *female puppy, canine or dog from Australia Australia A Potted History Becoming a Nation Australia was the last great habitable land mass to be surveyed and colonised by Europeans. Aeons before the explorers made their landfall, the Aborigines took possession of the vast empty continent. They are believed to have travelled from Asia along transitory land bridges created by the rising and ebbing seas of the Ice Age. For thousands of years they occupied the continent undisturbed and undiscovered. In 1606, a Dutchman, Willem Jansz sailed down the west coast of Cape York Peninsular. In 1616 another Dutchman, Dirk Hartog made landfall about 700km north of Perth, and another Dutchman, Abel Tasman, skirted Tasmania in 1642. The first Englishman known to have visited these shores was William Dampier. He was a navigator and pirate who reached the north-west coast in 1688. But it was Captain James Cook who finally put the Great South Land on the map when he discovered and charted the east coast in 1770. He paved the way for eventual British settlement. During much of the eighteenth century, Britain sent criminals from their overflowing gaols to the American colonies. Following the American War of Independence this outlet was closed. In 1788, the First Fleet under the command of Captain Arthur Phillip set off for Botany Bay to establish a penal settlement. When he arrived there, he thought the bay inadequate for his purposes so sailed further north to Port Jackson. He named his settlement, Sydney.

A Brief History of Olives in Australia (Adapted from the April 1997 issue of Australian Olive Grower) The history of olive farming in Australia dates back to the early 1800's . Olives were probably first planted in groves around in Parramatta near Sydney. Olives and olive oil have been traded among the civilizations throughout the world for centuries, so it seems probable that many of the ships arriving on our shores would have carried some olive trees for planting. All the states and territories, excluding Tasmania were planted with some varieties of olive trees during the 1800s. During this period, South Australia and Victoria were the states where most of the planting was going on and they were considered the leaders at that time.South Australia began to lead the charge of the olive industry back in the 1830s. Between 1830 and 1850 trees had come in from France, Rio de Janeiro and Sicily. One company took delivery of five varieties from Marseilles. These trees went on to produce oil which won honourable mention at the London Exhibition of 1851. Also, the Stonyfell Olive Oil Company of South Australia won
