Abstract

Developers, the courts and consent agencies are struggling to come to terms with Indigenous heritage places that embody evolving heritage values – places that some anthropologists describe by reference to a process of ‘re-inscription’. In an attempt to predict how the heritage profession will respond to these developments, this article looks back at a comparable case study that involved a ‘re-inscribed’ Indigenous landscape in NSW. It concludes that, in spite of criticisms of commercial heritage consultants made by some theoreticians embedded in academia, the tools for managing such sites have been developed by heritage practitioners over many years, but are commonly inconsistently or poorly applied, if they are applied at all.

摘要

开发商、法院和许可机构正在努力与体现不断演变的遗产价值的土著遗产地达成协议——一些人类学家通过提及“重新登记”的过程来描述这些地方。为了预测遗产行业将如何应对这些发展，本文回顾了一个类似的案例研究，该案例研究涉及新南威尔士州“重新铭刻”的土著景观。它的结论是，尽管学术界的一些理论家对商业遗产顾问提出了批评，但遗产从业者多年来开发了管理这些遗址的工具，但通常不一致或应用不佳，如果它们被应用的话.
