Woman and girl weaving at Yarrabah

from State Library of Queensland

• Vesna Verencevic said:

  Yarrabah is the traditional country of the Gunggandji and Mandingalbay Yidinji people. These people had traditional beliefs and values different to those we have today. They were guided by Buleru, ancestral spirits who gave us our cultural law, belief system and creation stories and followed a defined social structure and kinship system. Our people were hunters and gatherers, the surrounding rainforest and beachside traditional lands around Cape Grafton provided food in abundance. Dwellings were made from material found within the environment, the structure dependent on wet season or dry season needs. The initial route of Captain James Cook and the crew of the HM Endeavor anchored off the northern shore of Cape Grafton and crew members made land looking for water. This was the third landing as part of the journey northward and the perils at Cape Tribulation. While Australia had been colonised by the British in 1788, Aboriginal people living on the eastern coast of Cape York had little contact with non-Indigenous people prior to the 1850s. Only a few brief encounters with British Royal Navy crews were documented. Cultural practices, particularly language ceremony and beliefs were all suppressed during these mission days. Traditional values were transformed swiftly to adopt clothing, and Christianity replaced traditional creation stories. Hunter gathering was discouraged and with the arrival of people from other cultural groups, Gungganji cultural protocols were dismissed. Source: www.yarrabah.qld.gov.au/our-history-and-future/

Plenty Coos

from Museum of Photographic Arts

• aware health said:

  I don't think it's he, but I wonder if this was supposed to be the famous Plenty Coups? See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plenty_Coups

• Museum of Photographic Arts said:

  I believe this may be the same person. A review of newspapers and other sources from the period (early 20th century) suggests that his name was regularly printed as "Plenty Coos." Thanks for visiting.
