AbstractHistoryArchive Description
Baluk Wurrung are ancient Aboriginal words from the languages of the Kulin nation of Victoria that refer to the clan or extended family group and what is spoken from the lips. These stories, told by contributors in oral interviews, were painstakingly gathered by Pauline Mackinnon during the years 2010 and 2011. They give a glimpse into the lives of Aboriginal people in south eastern Melbourne.
