| Abstract Note | The decision by the Victorian Minister of Tourism to announce the 'restoration' of the original Aboriginal name 'Guriward' of the Grampians mountain range in western Victoria in 1989 without consulting the local Koori community is discussed. It is suggested that the transformation of Koori rock-art sites as tourist centres along with the partial and selective name changes demonstrated that the white Australians still indulged in an unchanged behaviour of altering Koori culture according to their wishes since they first visited the area in 1836. |
