Dean,

I was interested in your post. From about 1970 until about 1980 I was an
architect in the Northern Territory and spent a lot of time at
Outstations
in Arnhem Land. They were just getting established. Whist I spent about
a
year in Katherine (southern Arnhem Land) and a couple of years at Alice
Springs, most of my time was spent among the Tiwis and all over Arnhem
Land
proper from Coburg Peninsular to Groote Island including the islands
along
the top end. One of my first projects was Elcho Island where the People
built the extensions to the school themselves. I have heard that this
has
since been burned down. A pity. My daughter was also tribalised at Elcho
under the name of Wharina, or little red berry (she was a redhead.)

I would very much like to read Trudgen�s book. I will get a copy of it.
I
had heard about it during a programme on the ABC.
