Abstract

Quote, page 3: "In 'Place', we document the University of Melbourne's active erasure of the markers showing timeless Indigenous occupation and custodianship of Country. These markers include the indigenous flora, fauna and palcenames that geve the land meaning. Only recenlty have there been attempts to reimagine the pre-settlement landscape and features."
