How a discipline’s history is written shapes its identity. Accordingly, science communicators opposed to cultural exclusion may seek cross-cultural conceptualizations of science communication’s past, beyond familiar narratives centred on the recent West. Here I make a case for thinking about science communication history in these broader geotemporal terms. I discuss works by historians and knowledge keepers from the Indigenous Australian Yorta Yorta Nation who describe a geological event their ancestors witnessed 30,000 YBP and communicated about over generations to the present. This is likely one of the oldest examples of science communication, warranting a prominent place in science communication histories. Abstract

将非西方和本地知识的传播纳入科学传播历史的策略

一门学科的历史是如何书写的决定了它的身份。因此，反对文化排斥的科学传播者可能会寻求科学传播过去的跨文化概念化，而不是围绕以西方为中心的熟悉叙述。在这里，我有理由从这些更广泛的地时角度来思考科学传播历史。我讨论了澳大利亚原住民约塔族国家的历史学家和知识保存者的作品，他们描述了他们的祖先目睹了30,000 YBP的地质事件，并世代相传。这很可能是科学传播的最古老的例子之一，在科学传播历史中占有重要地位。抽象
