Produktbeschreibung
Murujuga: Dynamics of the Dreaming was an Australian Research Council Linkage Project (LP140100393) administered by the Centre for Rock Art Research and Management (CRAR+M) at the University of Western Australia (UWA). This project involved Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation (MAC) as collaborating organisation and Rio Tinto as the partner organisation. Field-based research ran from 2014 to 2018. This aimed to provide scientific evidence to protect and understand the National Heritage-listed rock art and stone structures of Murujuga (Burrup Peninsula) and Dampier Archipelago and provide new evidence in support of the World Heritage nomination of this property. Rio Tinto's involvement is founded on its conservation agreement with the Commonwealth, which funds research into the values of the National Heritage Listed Place. This support has included the initial endowment of the Rio Tinto Chair of Rock Art Studies at UWA as well as ongoing funding support through the Rio Tinto UWA Memorandum of Understanding, which employs the CRAR+M Database Manager, and funds the annual Murujuga rock art field schools and capacity for research projects in the Pilbara with other Pilbara communities. In keeping with the goals of the CRAR+M monograph series, this volume is data rich, with detailed information about the rock art, stone structures and excavated sites researched by this project. Throughout the project's fieldwork, the researchers met regularly with the Murujuga Circle of Elders to update them on results and to seek permissions for the next phase of fieldwork. All imagery included in this monograph has been cleared for publication by MAC. Additional imagery and educational content can be found on the CRAR+M website (www.crarm.uwa.edu.au/m2), where digital versions of individual chapters from this monograph can also be accessed. About the editors: Jo McDonald and Ken Mulvaney have brought their considerable national experience and locally honed expertise to combine their roles in the academy and industry, to undertake the fieldwork and oversee the completion of the documentation for this monograph.
