Questionnaire and interviews with EGrant about rainforest artefacts

The interviews about rainforest artefacts were collected to show what curatorial information is considered to be relevant for an Jirrbal collector of rainforest artefacts. In approximately 30 interviews, Grant describes his collection of artefacts including those sold to MTQ Townsville, and how they relate to his Jirrbal heritage. A transcript of A Muriata who narrates a day in the life of a pre-contact clan and their artefacts is also included.
