Description

This map shows Australian Wars identified through a combination of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge, historical research and quantitative methods. This information, the names used, and groups related to wars are provisional only, pending further research and collaboration. Naming of wars belongs with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples involved. Spatial and temporal clustering of Colonial Frontier Massacre data has helped identify times and places of intensity in mortal conflict.
