1 Indexing Personal Names Geraldine Triffitt , 2007 single work criticism
— Appears in: The Indexer , April vol. 25 no. 3 2007; (p. 1-4)
'When describing Aboriginal Australians, one must remember that Australia before colonization was made up of many different peoples with different languages, social organizations and lifestyles. In order to understand the problems that can face the indexer in one aspect of the culture, personal names, it is necessary to explain something of the social organization and in particular the kin terms.'
