Gunyah, Goondie & Wurley The Aboriginal Architecture of Australia

"When Europeans reached Australian shores, a long-held and expedient perception developed that Australian Aboriginal people did not have houses or settlements, that they occupied temporary camps, sheltering in makeshift huts or lean-tos of grass and bark. This book redresses that notion, exploring the range and complexity of Aboriginal-designed structures, spaces and territorial behaviour, from minimalist shelters to permanent houses and villages."--BOOK JACKET.Memmott, Paul is the author of 'Gunyah, Goondie & Wurley The Aboriginal Architecture of Australia', published 2007 under ISBN 9780702232459 and ISBN 0702232459.
