Whether one is researching the history of a site or region or reviewing the history of the archaeological discipline more broadly, archives provide a key source of information. Once considered a passive repository of knowledge extraction, archives are today approached as a source of knowledge production “where constraints and motivations of ideological or political order can transpire and be apprehended” (Schlanger and Nordbladh Reference Schlanger, Nordbladh, Schlanger and Nordbladh2008:3). This is particularly the case for ”archaeological archives”—archives that derive from archaeological research and practice and include unpublished correspondence, reports, field notebooks, diagrams, and photographs held in numerous libraries, institutions, and private collections. Importantly, archaeological archives provide a toponomy that can be used to better understand the complexity of archaeological practice; complexities that may become obscured within the archaeological documentation that create the basis of published accounts.
Indeed, a tenet of objectivity still remains a dominant ideology within the archaeological discipline, influencing the documentation of archaeological practice despite the emergence of post-processual critiques of such. As Marciniak (Reference Marciniak2003:210) points out:
Despite the development of archaeological theory, site reports remain written within a rationalist and objectivist framework. This is where requirements of culture-historical analysis are preserved, even when a person with a different theoretical orientation excavates the site.
Thus, published accounts of archaeological practice can obscure some of the more subjective factors that influence archaeological practice. Such factors may include the broader social context of archaeological practice, whereby participants who either directly or indirectly contributed to archaeological practice remain invisible and marginalized (cf. Lucas Reference Lucas2012:239). As Lucas (Reference Lucas2001:13) points out, “archaeology is a practice we do with others, perhaps in fieldwork particularly, and there is a violence which accompanies this when people are silenced in the name of . . . the production of knowledge.”
Contrasting with published accounts of archaeological practice, archaeological archives may “allow [for] the excavation of the voices (sometimes names) of subaltern and otherwise suppressed others from the archive” (Zeitlyn Reference Zeitlyn2012:461). Specifically, the study of such archives may illuminate the agency of marginalized individuals, including indigenous peoples, women, and broader members of the community. Notably, archaeological archives have the potential for the agency of marginalized individuals to be better understood, especially during periods of archaeological practice when their contribution was not standard practice and neither valued nor acknowledged. Nevertheless, such individuals will have not contributed to all instances of archaeological practice, so seeking evidence of their agency within the archives may still prove fruitless. Despite this, as a source of knowledge production, archaeological archives have the potential to revisit, revise, and perhaps challenge the “Great Men” or ”Forefathers” narrative that dominate the history of archaeology's formative years. Indeed, Baird and McFadyen (Reference Baird and McFadyen2014:15) consider archaeological archives as a site of translation, where the production of archaeological knowledge can be negotiated to produce new and alternative archaeological interpretations and histories. Following from this, Baird and McFadyen (Reference Baird and McFadyen2014:15) argue:
The form of the archaeological archive, we believe, is related directly to the form of archaeological knowledge. The recognition of this relationship is key to working with “legacy” data (existing data from previous excavations), and to developing a more critical approach to the history of archaeology.
Despite this potential to reach into the “substrate” of archaeology (Schlanger and Nordbladh Reference Schlanger, Nordbladh, Schlanger and Nordbladh2008:3), archaeological archives still run the risk of reflecting dominant ideologies where “certain stories are privileged and others marginalized” (Schwartz and Cook Reference Schwartz and Cook2002:1). Simply put, archaeology operates within a dominant, positivist paradigm where archaeological practice is understood as a linear and logical process based on objective observations (Chadwick Reference Chadwick2003:104; Hodder Reference Hodder1999:x; Lucas Reference Lucas2001:15–16, Lucas Reference Lucas2012:1). Therefore, the way in which archaeological practice is documented and represented within the archaeological archive is likely to reflect these positivist assumptions. As a result, archaeological archives run the risk of perpetuating a positivist representation of archaeological practice, which only tells part of the story of what undertaking archaeological practice really entails. Therefore, archaeological archives may not accurately represent—or even obscure—the true nature of archaeological practice or its disciplinary history.
Alternatively, moving image archives of archaeological practice provide an opportunity to move beyond this positivist representation of archaeological research and practice. Specifically, moving item archives provide an opportunity to ethnographically study archaeological practice at the “trowel's edge” (Hodder Reference Hodder1997:694), leading to insights that can be critiqued to better understand the true nature archaeological practice (Hodder Reference Hodder1999:191; Pillow Reference Pillow2003:178–179). In doing so, moving image archives provide an opportunity to enhance our understanding of archaeological practice prior to or during the documentation process that creates the basis for the archaeological archive, including a more sophisticated understanding of the broader social and political context of archaeological practice; bypassing the potential misrepresentation and marginalization contained within this archive.
That being said, moving image archives are rarely utilized by those situated beyond the boundaries film studies. As Andreano (Reference Andreano2007:82) points out:
Throughout history, scholarly interest in moving image archives has rarely extended beyond academics involved in film studies, leaving a wealth of human experience captured on film and video hidden from the more general scholarly community.
Admittedly, many archaeologists would not be naturally inclined to draw on a moving image archive in the process of researching the history of a site or the discipline's history despite the important role other forms of visual representation such as photography and illustration play in archaeological practice. Simply put, there seems to be a “low scholarly expectation” of moving image archives, which are considered an ”unconventional” source of information (Andreano Reference Andreano2007:82–84). For the most part, moving image archives remain an underutilized resource due to their perceived lack of academic credibility, discoverability, and accessibility.
With reference to the moving image archive at the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS) and its close association with archaeological practice, this article discusses how the management of this collection is promoting the discoverability and accessibility of this archive with potential clients in the archaeological, academic, and broader community. Specifically, a key component of this management is the production of detailed, searchable, and retrievable content description, informed by knowledge and experience that accompanied my transition “from archaeologist to archivist.” In short, this article demonstrates the importance of cross-disciplinary knowledge and experience within archive management, in order for moving image archives to reach their full research potential.
AIATSIS, ARCHAEOLOGY, AND THE MOVING IMAGE ARCHIVE
AIATSIS is a research institute located in Canberra, with an extensive audio-visual archive that comprises photographic, sound, and moving image collections (Figure 1). As the world's most extensive collection of materials relating to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, the AIATSIS collections are a major keeping place for information about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, culture, and history. Despite a complex history, AIATSIS continues to preserve and manage these collections, providing accessibility to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other clients within the broader community. As a result, the AIATSIS collections are today used by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for family history research, including members of the stolen generations seeking to trace and reconnect with their family, identity, and culture. The collection is also a highly regarded resource for anthropologists, linguists, historians, and filmmakers.
Figure 1. The Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS), Canberra.
AIATSIS was established by the Australian government in 1964, during the formative years of Australian archaeology, and has had a long association with archaeology and archaeologists. In particular, former principals and chairs of the institute include well-known archaeologists Fred McCarthy, Peter Ucko, and John Mulvaney. As a result of these strong associations, AIATSIS has both supported and influenced archaeological practice in Australia (Taylor and Ward Reference Taylor and Ward1999). Specifically, for many years AIATSIS operated one of the main sources of funding for archaeological research in Australia, particularly toward the study and protection of rock art (see Ward Reference Ward2011). In addition, AIATSIS either published or assisted with publication of results from archaeological research (Du Cros Reference Du Cros2002:22–23). As a result, the products of this research were donated to the institute, resulting in numerous collections that derive from archaeological practice. The founding principal of AIATSIS, archaeologist and anthropologist Fred McCarthy, was—like his contemporaries Charles Mountford and Norman Tindale—a strong advocate for ethnographic filmmaking and supported the development of the institute's Film Unit in 1961; in fact, ethnographic filmmaking was seen as an important aspect in the formative years of AIATSIS (Bryson Reference Bryson2002:9–16; Leigh Reference Leigh2016). Specifically, McCarthy saw filmmaking as a means to create a scientific record that would complement ethnographic fieldwork and set about producing large amounts of unedited, archival footage for future use by researchers. McCarthy had a particular interest in rock art, and this is reflected in one of the institute's earliest recordings of archaeology. He partnered with a young Rhys Jones to document the recording of engravings in Tasmania (see AIAS 1969); Jones himself would later go on to to contribute to and produce significant moving image collection items for the institute (see AIAS 1983, 1984; Meehan and Jones 1971–Reference Meehan and Jones1980).
For the most part, however, McCarthy's approach to filmmaking was conservative and in stark contrast to that of his successor, archaeologist Peter Ucko. Prior to becoming principal, Ucko was chair of the Film Committee of the Royal Anthropological Institute in London and had a keen interest in ethnographic filmmaking. Following McCarthy's reign, Ucko set about restructuring the film unit and shifting its focus by employing filmmakers who produced edited films for release and general distribution (Bryson Reference Bryson2002:36). Most importantly, under Ucko's reign the Film Unit commenced the participation and employment of Aboriginal people.
Subsequently, the AIAS Film Unit—as it was formally known—was active between 1961 and 1991, archiving filmed material and producing some 30 original ethnographic films for public release. As a result, AIATSIS become instrumental in the establishment of ethnographic filmmaking in Australia (Leigh Reference Leigh2016), producing “one of the largest assembly of ethnographic films created in the world” during that time (AIATSIS 2016b). Materials produced by the AIAS Film Unit are estimated to comprise about 70 percent by volume of the whole moving image archive (AIATSIS 2016b).
As a result of this long association with archaeology and emphasis on ethnographic filmmaking, AIATSIS has been uniquely positioned as the recipient of numerous archive items relating to archaeological practice; items that may have otherwise been dispersed among numerous archives, libraries, and personal collections. In addition to being a recipient of this content, the AIAS film unit also produced content that document archaeological practice. Overall, the moving image archive at AIATSIS contains at least 20 moving image archive collections documenting archaeological practice, a number of which are referenced herein; however, due to the extent of this archive—and the evolving nature of archives in general (Schwartz and Cook Reference Schwartz and Cook2002:1)—more collections will likely come to light through its ongoing management.
SCOPE AND MANAGEMENT OF THE MOVING IMAGE ARCHIVE
The AIATSIS moving image archive comprises more than 5,000 video titles and 6.5 million feet of film, which, if placed end to end, would stretch from the top to the bottom of Australia (AIATSIS 2016b). More specifically, the archive contains original and unique film, analogue video, and born digital items, including ethnographic films, documentaries, and footage recording Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages, ceremonies, oral history, and historic events. Reflecting changes in the use of the AIATSIS collections in recent decades, the moving image archive is now a resource for numerous Aboriginal filmmakers. In particular, Arrernte and Kalkadoon filmmaker and AIATSIS Council member Rachel Perkins—daughter of well-known Aboriginal activist Charlie Perkins—has drawn on AIAS Film Unit collections in some of her film productions (Leigh Reference Leigh2016). Perkins also has donated extensive collections from her filmmaking career to AIATSIS, such as rehearsal footage, original costume sketches, and props. Of particular note are over 500 hours of interview footage from her highly acclaimed TV series First Australians, which are described in a recent significance assessment as “likely to be the most significant addition to the AIATSIS collection of the past decade” (O'Donnell Reference O'Donnell2014:40).
In addition to this, the collection includes items from Central Australian Aboriginal Media Association (CAAMA) and Imparja TV, media created and produced by and for Aboriginal people. AIATSIS also supports an Indigenous Remote Archival Fellowship to assist Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organizations archive and preserve their own audiovisual heritage (AIATSIS 2016d). In short, the AIATSIS moving image archive reflects changes that have played out within the Australian social and political landscape in recent decades, helping Aboriginal peoples gain a greater degree of self-determination in controlling the representation of their identity, culture, and history.
It was in this context that I began working as an archivist within the moving image archive in 2015, following a decade working as archaeologist for numerous organizations of the Ngarrindjeri nation. While working as an archaeologist, I developed an interest in and knowledge of the history of the discipline, no doubt influenced by a period of self-reflection within Australian archaeology that preceded this role (see Du Cros Reference Du Cros2002:35–40). As a result, I have often drawn on this disciplinary knowledge in my research as well as presentations (see Wiltshire Reference Wiltshire2006, Reference Wiltshire2011, Reference Wiltshire2015, Reference Wiltshire2016, Reference Wiltshire2017; Wiltshire and Wallis Reference Wiltshire and Wallis2008), and it informs my current role as an archivist. Specifically, being an archivist within collection development and management involves coordinating, supervising, advising, and undertaking various collection management activities, including the assessment, accessioning, and cataloguing of moving image items to current professional standards. My role as an archivist also affords the opportunity to undertake research into moving image collections in order to provide high-level content description that in turn facilitates client discoverability and accessibility. Therefore, having developed prior knowledge of the association between archaeology and AIATSIS as a result of my disciplinary knowledge, I commenced researching items within the moving image archive that are the product of this association, while considering their research potential for archaeological practice and its disciplinary history.
A broader literature review undertaken revealed few if any published accounts of archaeological practice or its disciplinary history drawing on this moving image archive; however, Jones and White (Reference Jones, White, Meehan and Jones1988) provide one of the few exceptions with reference the AIAS Film Unit title The Spear in the Stone. Specifically, this publication reports on the technical process of stone artifact production, which is a key feature of this title. In doing so, Jones and White (Reference Jones, White, Meehan and Jones1988:65–66) describe the use of this moving image archive by stating, “Diltjima was filmed both preparing his core and also detaching flakes from it. No questions were asked of him, nor did we solicit demonstrations of technique or posed photographs. This sequence constituted Roll 15 of the field films.” From this quote, one can assume that the moving image archive was later accessed in order to study this stone knapping in detail for interpretation purposes, which later created the basis for Jones and White's (Reference Jones, White, Meehan and Jones1988) published account. In drawing on this moving archive, Jones and White (Reference Jones, White, Meehan and Jones1988:87) point out, “Original uncut film rolls for The Spear in the Stone . . . held in the film archives of the Australian Institute of Aboriginal Studies, Canberra . . . are available for study at the Institute to any bona fide researcher.” With the exception of this published account, it seems that such a bona fide researcher is yet to take up Jones and White's (1988:87) suggestion. Consequently, the AIATSIS moving image archive remains, to date, an underutilized resource within the broader archaeological community. Thus, the following discussion seeks to understand the underutilized nature of this archive with reference to its discoverability and accessibility.
Discoverability
The level of discoverability of any moving image archive stems from the level of metadata available via an accessible catalogue system. In fact, quality metadata is an important interface to the establishment of a discoverable and therefore successful archive (Schaffner Reference Schaffner2015). Notably, in his article on improving scholarly accessibility to moving image archives, Andreano (Reference Andreano2007:82) argues that “accessible catalogs with comprehensive content descriptions are the key to establishing a link between scholars and moving image archives.”
In order to produce the metadata that creates the basis for such content description, an archivist undertakes a process of “analysis, translation and representation” (La Barre and Novaris Cordeiro Reference La Barre, Inês Novaris Cordeiro and Rassmussen Neal2012:235). In other words, the moving image item is analyzed; this may involve reviewing the content of the item, but time and labor constraints often limit this ability. In most cases, an archivist analyzes documentation accompanying the item in order to develop an understanding of the nature of its content, which is then translated and represented as metadata within a cataloguing system. While a moving image item might be accompanied by ample documentation in order to undertake this task, more often than not the level of accompanying documentation is minimal. This results in a poorly documented moving image archive that in turn decreases a moving image archive's discoverability (Edmondson Reference Edmondson2004:40). Therefore, understanding the nature of a moving image item is vital to increasing its discoverability.
In order to address the knowledge gap that can arise within the archival process, it makes sense that an archaeologist should be involved with producing metadata for moving image archives that are the product of archaeologists and archaeological practice. Indeed, Andreano (Reference Andreano2007:82) argues, “to establish a link to the scholars, [archives] may need to look outside of their own cataloging departments for help in capturing content information.” Accordingly, I draw on my knowledge of archaeological practice and its disciplinary history to improve the existing metadata of the moving image archive at AIATSIS and increase its discoverability.
This content description seeks to document key and searchable metadata that encompass the content of the moving image item, including the names of archaeologists featured, location and/or site of archaeological practice, date or span of archaeological practice, and the type of practice featured: content specific metadata that is preferenced when seeking such a resource (Schaffner Reference Schaffner2015:87–88). Given that the AIATSIS collections are used daily by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for family history research, it is important to privilege these needs while also recognizing the needs of potential clients within the broader archaeological community. Therefore, the metadata and content description must foremost document and include—where available—the names of Aboriginal people featured, their cultural/language group affiliation, and culturally appropriate thesauri headings; information that will not only allow their discoverability with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients, but may be valuable in assisting with family history research (see AIATSIS 2016c; Hitch Reference Hitch2016). This content description also observes the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Library, Information and Resource Network (ATSILIRN) Inc. Protocols, in order to avoid “the use of outdated, inaccurate or value laden terms [that] actually obstructs access” with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients (ATSILIRN 2012).
In addition to this, the content description should ideally make reference to the broader context of the moving image item, in order to accurately “analyze, translate and represent” (La Barre and Novaris Cordeiro Reference La Barre, Inês Novaris Cordeiro and Rassmussen Neal2012:235) its significance. For example, the content description and subject terms contained within the catalogue for the Tasmanian Film Project (1984) includes reference to the shifting dynamics between archaeologists and Aboriginal people emerging within Australian archaeology at the time. In doing so, the broader social and political context filmmaker Kim McKenzie (Reference McKenzie1983) aimed to capture in this film is captured within the content description. In some cases, key publications arising from the archaeological practice featured are also included within the content description; for example, the content description for the Anbarra Field Tapes (1972–1980) produced by Betty Meehan and Rhys Jones includes reference to Meehan's (Reference Meehan1982) Shell Bed to Shell Midden—an important and internationally regarded resource for midden studies. Far from being a static repository, contributing and improving content description in this manner also demonstrates the dynamic potential of archives and how content description can and should be refined in order to remain relevant and engage new audiences.
In addition to this, my role as an archivist involves drawing on and creating new connections within the archaeological community, as a means to engage with those individuals associated with creating these archives to address knowledge gaps that exist. Far from the common stereotype of an omniscient archivist quietly laboring away in a dark and dusty basement, actively engaging with the archaeological community is an important step in creating and improving content description as a means to improve discoverability. Thus, my transition from archaeologist to archivist has provided an opportunity to expand on traditional archiving processes in order to facilitate a collaborative approach to archiving, further ensuring this archive remains discoverable into the future. While content description is vital to increasing the discoverability of a moving image archive, such archives—particularly those featuring archaeological practice—may exist unevenly and be dispersed among numerous archives, libraries, and personal collections (cf. Johnston and Withers Reference Johnston and Withers2008; Kurtz Reference Kurtz2001). As a result, such archives may suffer from a lack of representativeness. Coupled with the ”low scholarly expectation” of moving image archives (Andreano Reference Andreano2007:82–84), such archives may be considered obscure, fragmentary, and ultimately difficult to locate. As Andreano (Reference Andreano2007:86) argues:
Owing to the traditional lack of scholarly involvement with moving image archives, it can be very difficult for an uninitiated researcher to know where to begin looking for relevant audiovisual materials. Before this researcher can even begin navigating an institution's catalog or inventory, he or she must first be able to locate and identify an archive holding appropriate material. This can be a very difficult and frustrating task.
While AIATSIS has been uniquely positioned to develop a moving image archive featuring numerous items relating to archaeological practice, it is vital this archive is searchable and discoverable via an accessible catalogue system; without such, this archive will remain obscure, overlooked, and underutilized.
The AIATSIS collections including the moving image archive are discoverable via Mura®, the AIATSIS catalogue system that has been available online to the public since 1998 and named after the Ngunnawal word for ”pathway” (AIATSIS 2013:3, 2016e). In addition to this, many items within the AIATSIS collections are also discoverable via Trove, an online search engine that harvests metadata of over 90 million items from over 1,000 libraries, museums, archives, and other institutions across Australia (Holley Reference Holley2010). For many researchers, academics, students, and members of the broader community, Trove is considered a ”one-stop shop” for searching and locating relevant resources. Thus, the inclusion of the AIATSIS collections on Trove is especially beneficial for client discoverability. As Wood and Gray (Reference Wood and Gray2016) maintain:
One of our aims is to ensure our collection is accessible and valued. As many of our clients live in some of the most remote parts of Australia, delivering information using the latest technology is essential. Trove is an important tool for us to achieve this goal . . . providing a new discovery avenue to our collection to people all across Australia, and especially to those in remote communities.
In total, there are currently just under 90,000 AIATSIS collection items discoverable on Trove—including 3,000 moving image items—with collection items added on a daily basis (AIATSIS 2013; NLA 2016; Wood and Gray Reference Wood and Gray2016). Most importantly, Trove encourages clients to interact with, recommend, and contribute content as a core feature (Holley Reference Holley2010). Thus, Trove provides a mechanism to receive and incorporate information from clients into content descriptions for AIATSIS collections, which in turns increases their discoverable.
Accessibility
One of the key strategic priorities of AIATSIS is to ensure the collections are accessible (AIATSIS 2016a:3). While catalogue records remain the most efficient way to allow discoverability of these collections, client accessibility can remain obscure—particularly for moving image archives. In most cases, items from the moving image archive need to be viewed on AIATSIS premises; however, many of our clients are located remotely. While clients can order copies of some moving image items, this is accompanied by a standard waiting period and associated fees that can pose a practical deterrent to clients seeking to utilize this resource. In addition to this, the inability to browse a moving image item the way “one can browse a book or set of manuscripts” (Edmondson Reference Edmondson2004:40) also provides a practical deterrent in accessing and utilizing such archives.
While a number of our collections are digitized and available online as a means to increase their accessibility, placing the entire AIATSIS collections online is not an immediate reality due to their extent, ongoing digitization work, and cultural restrictions that prevent online access. In lieu of placing collections online, emphasis is placed on the creation of shot logs, audition sheets, or finding aids. Specifically, these documents provide detail and timed content descriptions of moving image items. These documents are linked to the catalogue record and can be downloaded remotely by clients. Thus, these documents provide a detailed and in-depth description that can be browsed by clients and allow them to ascertain the nature and potential usability of the content without having to access the moving image item. AIATSIS (2013:14) recognizes the value and importance of these documents to potential clients, as outlined:
AIATSIS holds a significant number of individual historical items which are of inestimable value for research. However, without detailed descriptions of the materials to make relevant materials accessible to both Indigenous and non-Indigenous researchers, clients would remain unaware that the material they seek is in the Collection.
This is further demonstrated by Blackburn (Reference Blackburn2016) in her discussion on AIATSIS finding aids and discoverability:
Without them, discovering the content of the archives would rely on catalogue records, which broadly describe subject matter. . . . Each researcher would have to have the time to trawl through all of a collection to first get a sense of what it contains and then identify (and remember or note) the individual parts relevant to their study . . . to develop their own finding aid, effectively.
While finding aids assist in the accessibility of moving image archives, the creation of such documents is time and labor intensive. As a result, many moving image archives are yet to be fully documented and described in this manner (Edmondson Reference Edmondson2004:40).
CONCLUSION
As a source of knowledge production, archaeological archives—particularly moving image archives—have the potential to produce new and alternative knowledges about archaeological practice and research. Specifically, moving image archives provide an opportunity to move beyond the linear and positivist accounts that may characterize other types of archaeological archives, in order to better understand other, potentially obscured factors that may have influenced archaeological research and practice. Managing this archive and creating connections with the broader archaeological community provides the opportunity to undertake a different kind of excavation, one that seeks to better understand the social context of archaeology more broadly.
The moving image archive at AIATSIS features some of the key archaeological investigations in Australia and avoids the unevenness and voids similar archives may suffer; however, it is by no means representative of archaeological practice and research in Australia on a broader scale. This raises the question of whether we are failing to document and archive the history of archaeology in a way that will allow future scholars to ask such questions. Only time will tell how seriously this might affect our understanding of how archaeological knowledge is produced.
