Although there are some memorials to conflicts that took place on the Australian frontier and to the people who were involved in them, the majority of the people who took part and the places where confrontations, killings and massacres took place, are not recognised. Compared to the many war memorials across the country, dedicated to the fallen in wars in which Australians have participated overseas, the lack of memorials to frontier conflict is a very sad indictment of the level of knowledge, understanding and compassion of governments and Australians generally about, and for, the people who gave their lives on the Australian colonial frontier.
Types of memorials
While memorials are often statues or monuments, they can come in many different forms such as books, films, gardens, graves, paintings, plaques, poetry, song or sites. Some memorials commemorate Aboriginal peoples who inhabited certain places before the arrival of colonists in 1788, but do not honour those who gave their lives in the defence of homelands from 1788 onwards. Examples of types of memorials follow.
Queensland
Forest Refuge: A memorial to Aboriginal people who gave their lives in frontier conflicts around Buderim, Queensland is located in the Buderim Forest Nature Refuge. Links to information about this memorial can be found below under Queensland listings.
New South Wales
Memorials to Dave Sands: While legendary boxer, Dave Sands, was not a hero of the frontier wars period, he was a warrior of the boxing world, inducted into the World Boxing Hall of Fame in 1988. There several different kinds of memorials to Dave Sands (1926–1952), born David Ritchie at Burnt Bridge Mission near Kempsey, New South Wales. The types of memorials to Dave Sands are:
- a plaque at Stockton near Newcastle, read more at: https://monumentaustralia.org.au/themes/people/sport/display/23070-dave-sands
- a monument near the Bandon Grove Bridge and
- a plaque at Glebe, Sydney, New South Wales
You can read more about Dave Sands at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Sands and in the Australian Dictionary of Biography at: https://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/sands-david-dave-11611
William Ferguson: Although also not an Aboriginal warrior on the colonial frontier in the sense that he fought in armed combat against colonists, Aboriginal politician and unionist, William (Bill) Ferguson (1882–1950), worked tirelessly for Aboriginal rights in New South Wales. He also championed the freedom of Aboriginal people from the oppression of the Aboriginal Protection Board from the 1900s until his death in 1950. Read more about him in the Australian Dictionary of Biography at: https://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/ferguson-william-bill-6160.

Monuments honouring explorers and colonists highly controversial
As holding Australia Day on 26 January has become a big issue, in some states, like New South Wales, statues honouring Europeans have become controversial also, even damaged by people who do not believe explorers like Lieutenant (later Captain) James Cook and invading colonists should be honoured. Christoper Knaus and agencies tell more in their story, dated 26 August 2017, ‘”No pride in genocide”: vandals deface Cook statue in Sydney’s Hyde Park’, The Guardian online at: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2017/aug/26/captain-cook-statue-and-two-others-in-sydneys-hyde-park-attacked-by-vandals
In Fremantle, Western Australia, back in 1994, Aboriginal people did not vandalise a highly offensive statue, but added a counter-memorial to it (see Counter-memorial, Fremantle under Western Australia below). While he has decried the vandalism of the Cook statue in Sydney, renowned journalist Stan Grant, among others, has also weighed into the argument, calling for the history of Cook to be corrected: ‘Correct Captain Cook history says Stan Grant’, NITV 22 August 2017. Read more at: https://www.sbs.com.au/nitv/nitv-news/article/2017/08/22/correct-captain-cook-history-says-stan-grant.
The issue of honouring British explorers, like James Cook, and colonists, who, from 1788, gradually dispossessed First Nations, continues to be very divisive, often because the majority of Australians know little or nothing about our history. How many know, for example, that First Peoples have been here for millennia–for at least 65,000 years, if not 80,000 years, according to archaeologists? (‘Australian dig finds evidence of Aboriginal habitation up to 80,000 years ago’, Helen Davidson and Calla Wahlquist, The Guardian, 20 July 2017, at: https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2017/jul/19/dig-finds-evidence-of-aboriginal-habitation-up-to-80000-years-ago)
Commemoration of 250th Anniversary of Cook’s First Voyage to Australia
The controversy surrounding the truth of Australia’s history and honouring explorers and colonists is about to become even bigger with the announcement in the Federal Budget, handed down on 8 May 2018, of $48.7 million over four years for the commemoration of the 250th anniversary of Cook’s first voyage to Australia. Concerned Australians and those living in difficult circumstances like many in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, might ask why do we need to spend so much honouring a man who actions were partly responsible for the later dispossession of possibly 1 million or more First Peoples? Could these funds be better spent on other programs such as support for programs initiated and run by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples themselves? Most of the funds allocated will be spent in 2017–18, including a $25 million Australian Government contribution to the government of New South Wales for the Kamay Botany Bay National Park 250th anniversary project in Sydney.
On 28 April 2018, in the lead up to the Budget, the Turnbull government announced that $50 million is to be spent on the redevelopment of Botany Bay, the first landing place of the British First Fleet in January 1788 that heralded the arrival of colonists. Read more in Nick Sas’s story, updated on 29 April 2018: ‘Botany Bay site’s $50 million redevelopment, including James Cook statue, set to transform historic site’ at: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-04-28/prime-minister-reveals-revamped-memorial-for-port-botany/9707338.
The development is to include a new ‘aquatic monument’ honouring Cook, the English explorer who ‘took possession’, without the consent of the original inhabitants, of the east coast of Australia at Bedanug or Bedhand Lag (Possession Island) on 22 August 1770. Researcher Graeme Taylor has delved into the history of what actually happened at Bedanug Island that day. In his article, ‘Stirring the Pot of the Dead Cook’, at: https://nationalunitygovernment.org/content/stirring-pot-dead-cook, Taylor finds a number of problems with the ‘official’ histories of Cook’s ‘possession’. This event does raise questions about the legitimacy and legality of the existence of ‘Australia’ the nation state.

Too few Australians it seems, including politicians, know or even care about whether Australia is really a legitimate nation state under British and international law–there are many hints, for example in the Mabo 2 judgments, that it is not.

Northern Territory
The Gurindji Walk-off at Wave Hill Station in 1966 came about not only because of poor wages and working conditions, but as a result of the killings, maltreatment and massacres of Aboriginal people by pastoralists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. A book, Yijarni: true stories from Gurindji country, Erika Charola and Felicity Meakins eds, AIATSIS, 2016, tells stories of these events in Aboriginal languages and in English.

Victoria
William Cooper: Influential activist and unionist William Cooper was a Yorta Yorta man born on the Murray River, Victoria in 1860. A memorial statue in the Queen’s Gardens, Shepparton, Victoria was dedicated to him on 27 March 2018, 77 years after his death.

Western Australia
Counter-memorial, Fremantle
In 1994, in a ‘counter-memorial’, First Peoples at Fremantle, Western Australia, added their point of view to a controversial, offensive ‘Explorers’ Monument’ that originally commemorated the leader of a punitive expedition at La Grange that killed up to 20 Aboriginal people.

TASMANIA (TAS)
Memorial plaque to Truganini, Bruny Island
Truganini is perhaps one of Australia’s most famous Aboriginal people, at one time believed to be the last Tasmanian. Bruny Island, one of the small islands off Tasmania, has a memorial plaque to her. Truganini, Tunnerminnerwait’s wife Planobeena, and Pyterruner, were tried in Melbourne, Victoria in late 1841 as accessories to the murders of two whalers at Cape Paterson, Victoria. They were found not guilty. Tasmanian warriors Tunnerminnerwait and Maulboyhenner were condemned to death for the whalers’ murders and hanged in Melbourne early in the morning of 20 January 1842. In December 2013 Melbourne City Council voted unanimously to erect a memorial in Melbourne to the men, once seen as common criminals rather than as freedom fighters defending their land and the very existence of their culture and nations. In 2016 a memorial to Tunnerminnerwait and Maulboyhenner was designed following consultations with Victorian and Tasmanian Aboriginal communities. One newspaper article summarises their story and how they were not allowed to give evidence in court. Read more at https://www.smh.com.au/national/once-were-warriors-20140204-31zmu.html

Yagan Square that opened in Western Australia’s capital, Perth on 3 March 2018, is already being called ‘the heart of Perth’. A nine-metre tall statue of Yagan honours the famous resistance fighter who defended Noongar lands in the early days of the Swan River colony. The statue was created by Noongar artist, Tjyllyungoo Lance Chadd in collaboration with Trish Robinson and Stuart Green. The work is titled ‘Wirin’–the Noongar word for ‘spirit’ that represents the sacred eternal force of creative power that binds all life on Boodja (Mother Earth). Rangi Hirini’s story about Perth’s new Yagan Square cultural area was aired on NITV News on 22 February 2018, Read more at: https://www.sbs.com.au/nitv/nitv-news/article/2018/02/19/statue-aboriginal-figure-set-permanently-stand-middle-perth
