Description: Hidden in Plain View : The Aboriginal People of Coastal Sydney, Paperback by Irish, Paul, ISBN 1742235115, ISBN-13 9781742235110, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Focusing on the coastal area of Sydney, Irish, a historian and archaeologist in the city, describes how its Aboriginal people did not disappear in the mid-19th century to be replaced by Aboriginal migrants in the 20th century and shows how they moved around this area throughout the 19th century. He challenges the myth that Aboriginal culture has never changed and cannot change without ceasing to be authentic, then discusses how Aboriginal people drew on a long history of dealing with change and used webs of connection to regroup after the arrival of Europeans. He then explores the role of their ability to fish for survival and trade, as well as their cultivation of relationships with the first generations of Europeans, in their survival of the early colony; how they used their connections to remain living in suburban areas; how Europeans forgot or ignored the local links of Aboriginal people; and what happened when the government re-engaged with Aboriginal affairs in the early 1880s and coastal Sydney people were misidentified as migrants.
