The Birth and Burial of Evolutionary Science in Australia

The article covers a lot of issues. Identity, rights, and the legacy of past wrongs are tricky. Some of which are acknowledged but a bit too down played in this article in my opinion.

Personally I don't understand cultural copyright.

Controlling names of things or places is one thing but then I see the abc claiming that there can be ownership of the story of past sea levels.

"Sea levels were about 100 metres lower than today which means that all of Sydney Harbour, all of Gamay (Botany Bay) and all the land east of today’s shoreline as far as the edge of the continental shelf – was dry land."
