An experimental assessment of the grinding
This paper tests predictions as to whether the grinding characteristics of a number of widely used native seeds also vary significantly, the implications this has for the selection, treatment and use of seeds by Aboriginal people in Australia and elsewhere, and generates quantitative data which can supplement and explicate other experimental researchThe Preliminary Aboriginal Heritage Test (PAHT) provides sponsors with certainty about whether a cultural heritage management plan (CHMP) is required for a proposed activity The Secretary to the Department of Premier and Cabinet certifies whether a CHMP is required for a proposed activityPreliminary Aboriginal Heritage Tests Aboriginal assessment, which focused on test excavation and characterising the subsurface archaeological resource The new recordings comprised nine sites with surface artefacts (including a grinding groove site) and 14 sites where subsurface artefacts were confirmed through test pit 19 0BAboriginal heritage Western Sydney Airport
Food or fibercraft? Grinding stones and Aboriginal
We argue that Aboriginal exploitation of Triodia spinifex for fiber was probably more common than previously thought, and that key to its exploitation and archaeological identification are reassessment of grinding/pounding stones, including handstones, hatchet heads, mortars, lower grinding dishes and bedrock grinding patches We suggest that previous identifications of spinifex processing Stones were used individually as files or as paired grinding stones to replicate a range of known Aboriginal grinding activities Processing actions included grinding, pounding and filing and processing times ranged from 10 min to 4 h Processing times varied depending on the stone material selected (certain stones were more effective at processing some materials) and the material worked (harder seeds required longer processing Sandstone grinding/pounding tools: Usetrace Hume Coal Aboriginal archaeological and cultural heritage services Client: Hume Coal The EMM heritage team is preparing an Aboriginal cultural heritage assessment and an historical assessment and statement of heritage impact for the project The team continues to work closely with Hume Coal to design a mine plan that responds to theAboriginal and Historic Cultural Heritage
