Juukan Gorge archaeological contexts and PKKP living heritage
Juukan Gorge
A long archaeological sequence and its destruction expose the limits of treating heritage as excavated objects alone. PKKP accounts emphasize living relationships, loss, recovery, and self-determination.
Evidências e histórias locais
Paisagens e conexões em mudança
Shelter histories form part of wider Country, not a point-sized site isolated from community relationships. No mine, cave, native-title, or cultural boundary is drawn.
Organização social e escala comunitária
The archaeological sequence does not identify a single ancient government. Puutu Kunti Kurrama and Pinikura are living peoples with contemporary representative institutions, not one archaeological type.
Património vivo, transformação posterior e conservação
PKKP statements describe loss and continuing heritage work following destruction. The parliamentary inquiry is attributed evidence, not a substitute for custodial authority or a legal determination by this atlas.
The inquiry chronology describes excavation and reporting of a sequence discussed as around 46,000 years, not a membership test.
The event is kept distinct from the ancient period and is attributed to the parliamentary record.
The anniversary statement and corporation account describe ongoing work and community priorities, not an extinct people.
Uma cronologia breve e documentada
Estes marcos servem de orientação e não constituem uma história completa.
-
Occupation evidence preserved
The inquiry's archaeological account documents a long sequence, with dates dependent on sampled contexts.
-
Excavation and reporting
The chronology distinguishes fieldwork from subsequent reporting and heritage decisions.
-
Shelters destroyed
The parliamentary chronology records this modern loss; excavation did not preserve the whole living place.

Living relationships beyond excavated objects
Destruction and recovery clearly dated as modern
