Introduction

Scope and Content

This collection comprises files created by Professor Mulvaney in the course of his career as an archaeologist, historian, author and lecturer and includes correspondence, drafts of writings by Mulvaney and others, notes, notebooks, fieldwork papers and research material, financial papers, grant applications, minutes of meetings, submissions, reports, drawings, maps and plans, certificates, newspaper cuttings and other printed material. Mulvaney corresponded with archaeologists, historians, politicians, colleagues and friends from Australia and overseas. The bulk of the letters in this collection are written to Mulvaney, although drafts and copies of his own letters feature as well.

These papers represent a lifetime's work on the study of Australian prehistory, and reflect Mulvaney's interest in and activities relating to a wide range of archaeological, anthropological and environmental issues. The papers document Mulvaney's undergraduate and postgraduate studies; his writings, research interests and fieldwork; and his professional appointments, such as his work with the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies (later the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies), the Australian Academy of the Humanities, the Committee of Inquiry into Museums and National Collections, the Interim Committee of the National Estate, the Australian Heritage Commission and the National Museum of Australia.

Provenance

The original instalment of this collection (MS 9615) was donated by Professor Mulvaney under the Cultural Gifts Program in September 1999. Further instalments were received in 2013 and 2017.

Three interviews with Mulvaney are held in the Library's Oral History Collection (at ORAL TRC 2388, ORAL TRC 2591 and ORAL TRC 3421), and Mulvaney's photographic collection is held in the Library's Pictures Branch. Photographs relating to his 1960 excavations at Fromm's Landing are held in the South Australia Museum Archives. Material relating to Mulvaney's work in Kenniff Cave and other Queensland excavations are held in the Queensland Museum, material relating to various Northern Territory sites is held in the Museum and Art Gallery of the Northern Territory, and material relating to Victorian sites is held in Museum Victoria. The AIATSIS Library also holds material relating to Mulvaney and his writings.

Arrangement

Where possible, the Library has tried to maintain the order of the collection as received from Mulvaney.

For the main correspondence series in MS 9615, the alphabetical arrangement of the files has been maintained, while in other series of MS 9615, the files have been arranged in roughly chronological order. File titles are based on Mulvaney's file titles, where present.

Many of the series in MS 9615 contain papers relating to other series. In particular, papers relating to Mulvaney's research interests and writings are found throughout the collection.

Series 8. Fieldwork, 1955-1998

Correspondence, grant applications, financial papers, notebooks, notes, research reports and articles, drawings, maps, plans and printed material relating to archaeological excavations by Mulvaney and others at sites in Australia and overseas. These papers largely concern financial and other arrangements for fieldwork; collection, dating and storage of archaeological specimens; documentation, conservation and management of heritage sites; relationships between researchers, landowners, funding bodies and other stakeholders; research findings; and other topics.

The papers date from Mulvaney's first Australian archaeological excavation at Fromm's Landing in South Australia in 1958. The papers then document later excavations, primarily in the 1960s, at Glenelg in south-western Victoria; Glen Aire in South Australia; Kenniff Cave and The Tombs sites in the Mt Moffat region, Queensland; various sites in the Northern Territory, including Gove, Kintore Cave and Ingaladdi; the Green Gully and Keilor sites in Victoria; and Lake Mungo and other sites within the Willandra Lakes region, New South Wales. There are also papers relating to fieldwork in Timor, and a 1969 expedition to Sulawesi, Indonesia. Research by others is documented in this series, including fieldwork conducted by Graeme Pretty at Roonka in South Australia in the late 1960s.

Series 9. Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies, 1962-1998

The Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies (AIAS) commenced in 1961 with an Interim Council, and was given statutory authority in 1964. The Institute was established with the primary function of sponsoring and fostering scientific and anthropological research on the history and culture of Australian Aborigines. Mulvaney was a member of the Institute's Council from 1964 to 1980, Acting Principal in 1971, and then Chairman from 1982 to 1984. In 1990 the Institute became the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS).

This series includes correspondence, minutes, grant applications, administrative papers, reports, notes, newspaper clippings and other papers. The files document the major role Mulvaney played in the establishment of the Institute, together with his activities as Council member and then Chairman. Many of these papers relate to Mulvaney's membership of the Advisory Panel on Prehistory and Material Culture, which discussed research priorities and advised on research funding applications. There are also papers concerning the appointment of staff and the election of members, reviews of the Institute and the development of policies on such issues as the treatment of secret/sacred material, the protection of sites, objects and ethnographic collections, the use of carbon dating and the effects of uranium mining.

Among the major correspondents are J.A. Barnes, Ronald M. Berndt, Neville Bonner, Sandra Bowdler, Dermot Casey, I.M. Crawford, R.M.

Series 10. Australian Heritage Commission, 1964-1996

Following the Committee of Inquiry into the National Estate in 1973, an Interim Committee of the National Estate was formed in 1974. The Interim Committee, which operated until 1976, was responsible for administering a National Estate grants program, and advising on the development of a national heritage policy under a permanent commission. The Australian Heritage Commission was established as a statutory authority in 1975, and the full Commission was appointed in 1976. In 2004, the Commission was replaced by an Australian Heritage Council. Mulvaney was a member of the Interim Committee of the National Estate, and served two terms as an Australian Heritage Commissioner from 1976 to 1982.

One of the primary functions of the Commission was to prepare and maintain the register of the National Estate, which is an inventory of significant Australian cultural and natural heritage places. The Commission also provided advice on heritage matters, and developed policies and programs for heritage research, training and education.

This series includes correspondence, minutes of meetings, submissions, reports, printed material and related papers, primarily concerning the establishment and administration of the Commission, the development of the Register of the National Estate, and the nomination of sites for inclusion on the Register.

Among the major correspondents are Jim Allen, Anne Bickford, Geoffrey Blainey, Max Bourke, John Calaby, Philip Cox, John Cumpston, Robert W. Ellis, W.F. Ellis, Margaret Feilman, Frank Fenner, Josephine Flood, Peter Forrest, Jeremy Green, D.C. Griffiths, Cameron Hazlehurst, D.E. Hutchison, R. Ian Jack, John W.

Series 11. Committee of Inquiry into Museums and National Collections, 1965-1977

In 1974 the Committee of Inquiry into Museums and National Collections was appointed to advise the government on the future coordination and development of Australia's museums and national collections, with particular reference to the establishment of a national museum in Canberra. Mulvaney was an inaugural member of the Committee of Inquiry, which was chaired by Peter Pigott. At the same time, Mulvaney was appointed as chairman of a special planning committee, convened to make recommendations to the Committee of Inquiry concerning the possibility of establishing a gallery of Aboriginal Australia. The Committee of Inquiry presented its final report in 1975.

This series includes minutes, correspondence, research material, reports, submissions and other papers relating to Mulvaney's work on the Committee of Inquiry and on the Planning Committee on the Gallery of Aboriginal Australia. This material documents discussion of such issues as the state of ethnographic collections held in museums and other institutions, the need for a National Museum, the role of such an institution and the scope of its activities, and the development of museology and conservation training programs.

Among the major correspondents are W.R. Ambrose, Peter Baume, Anne Bickford, A.J. Birch, Lionel Bowen, J.L. Carrick, R.J.H. Deane, Barrie Dexter, Robert Edwards, W.F. Ellis, Jack Golson, D.R.

Series 12. Historical archaeology, 1967-1996

Mulvaney was a foundation member of the Australian Society for Historical Archaeology, formed in 1970 to promote the study of historical archaeology in Australia. In 1991 the Society was expanded to include study of New Zealand and the Asia-Pacific region, and its name was changed to the Australasian Society for Historical Archaeology. The Society promotes the exchange of information and reference material relating to historical archaeology both in Australia and overseas.

This small series contains correspondence, conservation plans, drafts, reports, newsletters, notes and research material. These papers document Mulvaney's interest in the identification, study and conservation of the material traces of Australia's cultural heritage, including the preservation of the site of the first Government House (Sydney) and other significant heritage sites and relics, the development of the register of the National Estate and the establishment of the Australian Heritage Commission.

Among the major correspondents are Anne Bickford, Graham Connah, Eleanor Crosby, Joan Domicelj, W.F. Ellis, Rhys Isaac, F.D. McCarthy, John McNally, D.R. Moore, W.D.L Ride and Jonathan Winston-Gregson.

Papers relating to Mulvaney's role in organising the 1974 conference on Historical Archaeology and the National Estate, at which important resolutions regarding identification and protection of heritage sites were made, are included in Series 10.

Series 13. Australian Academy of the Humanities, 1973-1997

The Australian Academy of the Humanities was established in 1969 by Royal Charter. The aim of the Academy is to advance knowledge of, and the pursuit of excellence in, the Humanities. It succeeded the Australian Humanities Research Council, which was founded in 1956. Mulvaney became a Fellow of the Academy in 1970, and served as Honorary Secretary from 1989 to 1996.

This small series includes correspondence, minutes of meetings, drafts and cuttings of writings, submissions, printed material and other papers. Much of this material is administrative, concerning Mulvaney's appointment as Honorary Secretary, the development of the Academy, arrangements for symposiums and seminars, and Mulvaney's 1994 Kenneth Myer Lecture 'The wisdom of "non-relevance" : the Humanities and Australia's cultural heritage'.

Series 14. Museum of Australia, 1975-1994

Following the recommendations of the Committee of Inquiry into Museums and National Collections, an Interim Council for the Museum of Australia was appointed in December 1980. The Interim Council was primarily responsible for advising on the establishment, siting and development of the proposed National Museum of Australia. Mulvaney served on the Interim Council from its inception until his resignation in 1983.

This series includes correspondence, minutes, reports, submissions, proposals, drafts and cuttings of articles and papers, drafts and copies of reports, research material and related papers.

Early papers in the series document Mulvaney's membership of the Department of Home Affairs' Museums Advisory Committee, 1979-1980, which was a precursor to the Interim Council. This Committee was set up to advise the Department on acquisitions in the period before the establishment of the Interim Council.

The bulk of the files in this series relate to the activities of the Interim Council from 1980 to 1982, particularly the planning and development of the Museum, including documentation of such issues as staffing, administration, funding, siting, design, themes, acquisitions, collection management and maintenance, clientele and relationships with other institutions.

There are papers relating to arrangements for visits to museums throughout Australia and overseas; consultation with academics, Aboriginal communities, heritage bodies and others; organisation of conferences and workshops on such issues as Australian history, the Australian environment, museology and conservation; and drafting and presentation of the Interim Council's report.

Later papers in the series reflect Mulvaney's continuing interest in the development of the Museum, including his role as chair of the Joint Academies Committee on Museums, which was established in 1989.

Among the major correspondents are J.L. Bannister, Weston Bate, Jean Battersby, Peter Baume, Jim Bowler, Dale Budd, T.W. Campbell, Georgina Carnegie, J.T. Davies, A.T.

Series 15. Australian Committee for the World Heritage Convention, 1976-1996

The World Heritage Convention was adopted by the UNESCO General Conference in Paris, November 1972, and Australia become one of the first countries to ratify the Convention in August 1974. The Convention aims to promote cooperation among nations to protect heritage places considered to be of universal significance. At the 1972 General Conference a World Heritage Committee was established to administer the Convention, and maintain the World Heritage List.

Mulvaney was a member of the Australian Committee for the World Heritage Convention. He was the Australian representative at the 1977 UNESCO General Conference, and was also a delegate to the fifth session of the World Heritage Committee, held in Sydney in 1981. At this session, Australia's Kakadu National Park (Stage 1) and the Willandra Lakes region were inscribed on the World Heritage List.

This series includes correspondence, minutes, reports and other papers. These papers primarily concern the nomination of Australian sites to the World Heritage List, as well as nominations of overseas sites, and the development of frameworks for managing listed sites.

Among the correspondents are Max Bourke, Jim Bowler, A.D. Campbell, D.C. Griffiths and Vincent Serventy.

Series 16. Joint Academies Committee for the Protection of Prehistoric Places, 1979-1984

In 1980, the Committee of the Australian Academies of Science, Humanities, Social Sciences and Technological Sciences established the Joint Academies Committee for the Protection of Prehistoric Places, to foster studies of the prehistory of Australia and to encourage the protection and preservation of prehistoric sites. The Committee was made up of eight members, comprising two representatives from each of the four Academies. Mulvaney and Jack Golson represented the Academy of the Humanities.

This series includes correspondence, minutes of meetings, administrative papers, printed material and other papers. This material largely relates to the organisation of two Rock Art Conservation workshops (November 1980 and June 1981), through which the Committee identified priorities and proposals for the surveying, recording, restoration, management and conservation of rock art sites, and, on a wider level, other archaeological sites, contact sites and sites of significance. Particular sites documented in this series include Western Australia's Dampier Archipelago and Burrup Peninsula.

Among the correspondents are J.L. Bannister, W.D. Borrie, J.T. Davies, L.T. Evans, Fay Gale, Jack Golson, Eugene Kamenka, Isabel McBryde, Sir Ian McLennan, R.J. O'Connor, W.D.L. Ride, Charles Rowley, Ralph Slatyer, H.A.W. Southon, Peter Valee and Sir Frederick White.

Series 17. Environmental issues, 1981-1998

Correspondence, notes, drafts of articles and other writings, reports, submissions, research material, printed material and other papers concerning Mulvaney's interest in and activities relating to environmental issues, particularly issues involving the region of South West Tasmania.

Material in this series primarily concerns the 1981 proposal by the Tasmanian Hydro-Electric Commission to build a dam on the Franklin River in South West Tasmania. Mulvaney visited the region in 1982, and wrote of the importance of Fraser Cave (now Kutikina Cave) and other archaeological sites in the area. He campaigned to have the dam project stopped, and to have the region included on the World Heritage List. In protest at the actions of the Federal Government concerning the proposed dam, Mulvaney resigned as a member of the Interim Council of the Museum of Australia in 1982. There are papers relating to the archaeological significance of sites in the region, the environmental impact of the proposed dam, submissions to the Senate Select Committee on South West Tasmania, appeals to the World Heritage Committee, and support from academics, parliamentarians, heritage and environment groups and others, both in Australia and overseas.

This series also includes papers relating to such environmental issues as phosphate mining on Christmas Island, alpine heritage, the sustainability of Australia's population, global warming and environmental legislation.

Series 18. So much that is new : Baldwin Spencer, 1860-1929, a biography, (1985)

Mulvaney's So much that is new : Baldwin Spencer, 1860-1929, a biography was published in Carlton, Victoria by Melbourne University Press in 1985.

Series 24. My dear Spencer : the letters of F.J. Gillen to Baldwin Spencer, (1997)

Correspondence, grant applications, notes, research material, annotated typescript drafts, printed material and other papers relating to the book, which was published in South Melbourne by Hyland House in 1997.

My dear Spencer is an annotated edition of 185 letters written by F.J. Gillen to Baldwin Spencer, 1894-1903, together with one reply from Spencer written in 1904. Gillen and Spencer first met when Spencer took part in the Horn Scientific Expedition, which travelled through Alice Springs in July 1894, where Gillen was post and telegraph station master. The letters, which are held in the archives of the Pitt Rivers Museum in Oxford, are a testimony to the close collaboration and friendship between Gillen and Spencer. They carried out several anthropological excursions together, resulting in The Native Tribes of Central Australia (1899), The Northern Tribes of Central Australia (1904) and The Arunta (1927). Mulvaney researched and edited the letters together with Howard Morphy of the Centre for Cross-Cultural Research at the Australian National University and Alison Petch of the Pitt Rivers Museum.

Among the correspondents are Jill Braithwaite, Diane Bell, Max Charlesworth, Elizabeth Durack, Bud Ford, H.W. Fraser, Ken Inglis, John Iremonger, Dick Kimber, Fred McKay, Howard Morphy, Patrick O'Farrell, Alison Petch, Janet Putnam, R.W. Bruce Reid, Deborah Bird Rose, Deryck Schreuder, Fred Silcock, Hazel Sinclair, Billy Soo-Lee, Neil Spark, James G. Stewart, Hilary Thompson, John Thompson and Brian Wilder.

This series also includes correspondence concerning From the frontier : outback letters to Baldwin Spencer (2000). Further papers relating to this volume are found in Series 25.

Series 25. From the frontier : outback letters to Baldwin Spencer, (2000)

A small selection of correspondence, manuscript and typescript draft material and notes relating to the book. From the frontier was compiled by Mulvaney, together with Alison Petch and Howard Morphy, and published in St. Leonards, NSW by Allen & Unwin in 2000.

The letters featured in From the frontier were written between 1894 and 1925 from Ernest Cowle and Paddy Byrne to Baldwin Spencer. Spencer was part of the 1894 Horn Scientific Expedition to Central Australia, which at one point was led by Mounted Constable 3rd Class Ernest Cowle of Illumurta Springs. Spencer and Cowle formed an enduring friendship, and Cowle's letters to Spencer were a rich source for Spencer's anthropological research. Patrick Byrne, telegraph station master at Charlotte Waters and brother-in-law of F.J. Gillen, was also a significant contact for Spencer.

This series contains letters of Kate Alport and Jo Bushby. Further correspondence relating to research and publication of this book is included in Series 24.
