Message from Mungo

Lake Mungo is an ancient Pleistocene lakebed in southwestern New South Wales and is one of the worlds richest archaeological sites Message from Mungo focuses on the interface over the last 40 years between the scientists on one hand and on the other the Indigenous communities who identify with the land and with the human remains revealed at the site This interface has often been deeply troubled and contentious but within the conflict and its gradual resolution lies a moving story of the progressive empowerment of the traditional custodians of the area
