These names often evoke important information about features of the environment and their place in Indigenous systems of knowledge. On the other hand, placenames assigned by European settlers and officials are largely arbitrary, except for occasional descriptive labels such as ?river, lake, mountain?. They typically commemorate people, or unrelated places in the Northern hemisphere. In areas where Indigenous societies remain relatively intact, thousands of Indigenous placenames are used, but have no official recognition. Little is known about principles of forming and bestowing Indigenous placenames. Still less is known about any variation in principles of placename bestowal found in different Indigenous groups. While many Indigenous placenames have been taken into the official placename system, they are often given to different features from those to which they originally applied. In the process, they have been cut off from any understanding of their original meanings. Attempts are now being made to ensure that additions of Indigenous placenames to the system of official placenames more accurately reflect the traditions they come from. The eighteen chapters in this book range across all of these issues. The contributors (linguistics, historians and anthropologists) bring a wide range of different experiences, both academic and practical, to their contributions. The book promises to be a standard reference work on Indigenous placenames in Australia for many years to come. 606 $aNames, Geographical$zAustralia 606 $aAboriginal Australians$xName 610 $aaustralia 610 $aaboriginal australian 610 $ageographical 610 $anames 610 $aIndigenous Australians 610 $aNgalakgan language 610 $aNgiyambaa language 615 0$aNames, Geographical 615 0$aAboriginal Australians$xName. 676 $a919.4003 700 $aHercus$b Luise$4edt$0801583 702 $aHercus$b L.
