This book presents rich detail on a third and related domain that has not been given the same kind of attention: linguistic organisation. Basing their analyses on fieldwork among the Wik peoples of Cape York Peninsula, north Australia, Peter Sutton and Ken Hale show how cosmology, linguistic variation, language prehistory, clan totemic identities, geopolitics, land use and land ownership created a vibrant linguistic organisation in a classical Aboriginal society. This has been a society long in love with language and languages. Its people have richly imbued the domain of rights and interests in country--the foundations of their native title as recognised in Australian law--with rights and interests in the abundance of languages and dialects given to them at the start of the world. 590 JSTOR|bBooks at JSTOR Open Access 650 0 Native title (Australia)|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh96003199 650 0 Wik-Mungkan (Australian people)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85088506 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|xLanguages.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85009618 650 0 Aboriginal Australians|xLand tenure|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85009617|zAustralia|zQueensland. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79004089-781 650 0 Wik-Mungan (Australian people)|xLand tenure. 650 7 Native title (Australia)|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1033935 650 7 Wik-Mungkan (Australian people)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1716068 650 7 Aboriginal Australians|xLanguages.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/794531 650 7 Aboriginal Australians|xLand tenure.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/794530 651 7 Australia.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204543 651 7 Queensland.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204261 655 4 Electronic books. 700 1 Hale, Kenneth Locke,|eauthor. 830 0 Asia-Pacific Linguistics. 856 40 |uhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/10.2307/j.ctv1zcm2w7 |zOnline ebook.
