Object history Tasmania is a discrete regional and cultural grouping within Aboriginal Australia, partly because Bass Strait creates a geographical barrier and partly because of the unique cultural characteristics of past and present Tasmanian Aboriginal people. The 'Aboriginal Collection from Tasmania 2003' captures a cross-section of Tasmanian Aboriginal life and culture in 2003, expressing a range of contemporary perspectives in relation to identity, young people, repatriation of human remains, cultural revival, creativity, heritage maintenance and cultural practises such as necklace making, mutton birding and abalone diving. This collection is significant because there are few major collections featuring Tasmanian Aboriginal culture from the 19th and 20th centuries. The collection's cultural value is enhanced by the fact that community members were involved in selecting the themes and content, thus creating a collection representing Tasmanian Aboriginal peoples in their own terms.
