from Aboriginal Way · host Aboriginal Way
More than 100 Aboriginal remains stored at the South Australian Museum were reburied at Kaurna Wangayarta Smithfield Memorial Park this week. In the past, some remains were stolen by institutions, and others have been disturbed by the development of Adelaide. The SA Museum has apologised for its involvement and supported Kaurna elders in repatriating their old people to a final resting place. Hear about the world-first reburial and memorial park through Kaurna elders, SA Museum leaders, and the Adelaide Cemeteries Authority.
