What is deep history? How do histories make sovereignty on Country? What is history’s future?For Aboriginal people, the past is the present. Competing histories form and transform the lands, peoples and nations of Oceania, from the Pacific Islands, New Guinea and Aotearoa/New Zealand to Australia. In nations impacted by colonialism, such questions are particularly pertinent. First Nations peoples have long made history, living on their Country far longer than the colonial invaders.In Deep Country and Sovereignty, edited by Ann McGrath and Jackie Huggins, leading historians and thinkers explore Indigenous histories of caring for places and people over millennia. With contributions from Brenda L. Croft, Anna Clark, Lynette Russell and many more,Deep Historyconsiders how stories of the past and the future are inscribed on land, waterways and skies. Walking on Country, gardening and agriculture and rock art are historical practices that continue to play an important role in asserting sovereign rights.While colonial powers crafted historical narratives of entitlement, First Nations people continue to perform deep histories of sovereignty.Deep Historyoffers readers an invitation to walk the Country, to see how it reveals the most crucial of all histories for the planet.‘Deep Historyis a rousing insurrection against the continuing colonial policing of history in Australasia and the Pacific. Indigenous Australian and Pasifika scholars lead in the reframing of our historical narratives, recognising, alongside white scholars, the urgency of truth telling for respectful acknowledgement of First Nations’ sovereignty. This postcolonial reframing of the space and tempo of past legacies and contemporary trajectories offers us new and deeper histories for better futures.’ – Warwick Anderson, author ofThe Cultivation of Science, Health, and Racial Destiny in Australia‘Deep Historyattempts the timely, difficult, and often discomforting task of blasting open the allied academic disciplines of History and Archaeology to Indigenous ways of representing the past and their sovereign sense of Deep Time. Going beyond the peaceful co-existence models of what was once called “bi-cultural history” in Aotearoa New Zealand and drawing on experiences of settler-colonial rule in the wider world of Oceania, the essays here experiment with a variety of creative strategies to take this challenging conversation forward. The result is an exciting and courageous volume that will speak to all students of decolonisation of knowledge.’ – Dipesh Chakrabarty, author ofProvincializing Postcolonial Thought and Historical Difference‘This wonderful collection of essays displaying the challenges and achievements of Deep History, draws our attention to history’s power, for good and ill, and its importance to the sovereignty of a people. From a rich and thought-provoking introduction to the series of exciting, informative, and well-written essays that follow we learn much about the very different forms deep history can take – a long walk, rock art, stories and practices that nourish Country, scientific studies of changes in land and sea, works of historical fiction, and even the conventional historical archive. I came away with a heightened appreciation of the different ways that Indigenous and non-Indigenous histories can and sometimes do communicate with one another, and the vital importance of doing so.’ – Ann Curthoys, co-author ofTaking Indigenous Rights and Settler Self-Government in Colonial Australia, 1830–1890
