Ngadlu tampinthi ngadlu Kaurna Miyurna yartangka. Munaintya puru purruna ngadlu-itya. Munaintyanangku yalaka tarrkarriana tuntarri.

We acknowledge we are on Kaurna Miyurna land. The Dreaming is still living. From the past, in the present, into the future, forever.

Cultural Sensitivity Warning
It is a condition of use of the cultural components of the Museum Archives that users ensure that any disclosure of information contained in this collection is consistent with the views and sensitivities of Indigenous people. Users are warned that there may be words and descriptions that may be culturally sensitive and which might not normally be used in certain public or community contexts. Users should also be aware that some records document research into people and cultures using a scientific research model dating from the first half of the twentieth century, and depicts people as research subjects in ways which may today be considered offensive. Some records contain terms and annotations that reflect the author's attitude or that of the period in which the item was written, and may be considered inappropriate today in some circumstances. Users should be aware that in some Indigenous communities, hearing names of deceased persons might cause sadness or distress, particularly to the relatives of these people. Furthermore, certain totemic symbols may also have prohibitions relating to the age, initiation and ceremonial status or clan of the person who may see them. Records included may be subject to access conditions imposed by Indigenous communities and/or depositors. Users are advised that access to some materials may be subject to these terms and conditions that the Museum is required to maintain.

'Plan of the Boundary Line which divides the Colony of New South Wales from that of South Australia, by Henry Wade Surveyor 1848'

Archive Collections / Dr Norman Barnett Tindale / Series AA338/16 / 'Plan of the Boundary Line which divides the Colony of New South Wales from that of South Australia, by Henry Wade Surveyor 1848'
Supplementary to: 'Canberra and California Journal by Norman B. Tindale. Volume 7. 2 October 1980 to 31 December 1981' (AA 338/1/53/7).

Two black and white copies of maps received by Tindale from Leith MacGillivray in 1981. The first is a photocopy of untitled draft annotated map showing a portion of an area surveyed by South Australia and New South Wales (now Victoria) boundary surveyors in 1848. It relates to MacGillivray's research on European settlement in the South East. Includes 'Tattiara Country' in the north to Glenelg River in south. MacGillivray added data to the 1848 map, including letters which refer to names of occupation licencees in the Southeast (e.g. 'A' = Armitage). Reference to original map is '1848 compiled from C130 exhibit 46', South Australian Archives (now State Records of South Australia: GRG35).

The second is a copy of the original 1848 map cited above. Map was found in Tindale's filing cabinet ('Private Research Notes - Anthropology') in folder 338/14/264, 'Map of SE of SA Tanganekald data'. Notes by Tindale on both maps refer to letters exchanged with MacGillivray, including a list of Aboriginal place names recorded by the 1848 boundary surveyors which he identified and interpreted (see journal AA338/1/53/7, pp. 327, 329 and 351; also 'Anthropology letters', 1981, vol. 2, 27 Sept. 1981). Scale 7 cm = 15 miles.
