In this bilingual, highly illustrated, full-colour publication, Something about emus reveals valuable ecological knowledge in a collection of essays by senior members of the Bininj Kunwok language group from Kakadu National Park and Western Arnhem Land. Something about emus goes beyond biology and ecology to encompass other culturally important domains such as the visual and verbal arts, music, ritual and the relationships between humans and animals. Whilst Indigenous ecological knowledge is increasingly acknowledged as a valuable part of Australia's cultural heritage, such knowledge is most richly expressed in Australia's Indigenous languages which have largely remained inaccessible to those outside their communities. 546 Parallel text in English and Bininj Gunwok language. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed June 22, 2017) 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Emus|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85042952 |vFolklore.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99001556 650 0 Emus|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85042952 |zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85007377-781 650 0 Ethnoscience|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh96010624|zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85007377-781 650 0 Ethnoecology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2001000104|zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85007377-781 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85009602|xEnvironmental aspects.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005383 650 0 Traditional ecological knowledge|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2003006652|zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85007377 -781 650 0 Anthropological linguistics|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85005577|zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85007377 -781 650 0 Human-animal relationships|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /subjects/sh85062838|zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85007377-781 650 0 Dreamtime (Aboriginal Australian mythology)|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh97007147|zAustralia |zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85007377-781 650 0 Mythology, Aboriginal Australian|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85089378|zAustralia|zArnhem Land (N.T.)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85007377 -781 650 7 Emus.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/909438 650 7 Ethnoscience.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/916208 650 7 Ethnoecology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/970226 650 7 Aboriginal Australians.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/794496 650 7 Traditional ecological knowledge.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1153965 650 7 Anthropological linguistics.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/810178 650 7 Human-animal relationships.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org /fast/963482 650 7 Dreamtime (Aboriginal Australian mythology)|2fast|0https:/ /id.worldcat.org/fast/897914 650 7 Mythology, Aboriginal Australian.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1031719 651 7 Australia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204543 653 Australian 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Folklore.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423784 700 1 Garde, Murray,|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n2013054814|eeditor. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1538153|zOnline eBook.
