Over the past decade there have been 32 land rights cases in the Northern Territory which have been completed or started. Each of these cases was concerned to a considerable extent with the identification of the extent of the traditional domain of Aboriginal communities making those claims. This book charts the territories of various Aboriginal groups throughout Australia. It challenges the present assumptions of some authorities that issues of Aboriginal territorial limits are best considered by anthropologists, and argues that geographers have at least an equal claim because of the major contribution which they have made to the development of concepts about frontiers and boundaries and the vast array of case studies which they have published.
