In this episode, Lucas and Luna tackle one of the most contested and painful questions in Australian history: how many people died in the frontier wars between European colonisers and Aboriginal peoples? They explore the groundbreaking work of historians like Lyndall Ryan and the University of Newcastle's Colonial Frontier Massacres Map, which has documented over 300 massacre sites across Australia. The conversation moves through the methodologies used to count the dead — from colonial records and frontier newspapers to oral histories and archaeological evidence — and grapples with the silences in the archive. They discuss specific case studies, including the 1861 Wonomo Massacre in central Queensland and the 1864 Battle of the Yowah Creek, to show how violence unfolded along the frontier. They also address the political and cultural debates that have surrounded these numbers, from the 'history wars' of the 1990s to contemporary reckonings. The episode closes with a reflection on what it means to count these deaths when so many remain uncounted — and why memory itself is a form of resistance. #ColonialFrontierMassacresMap #LyndallRyan #FrontierWars #AustralianHistory #HistoryWars #WonomoMassacre #BattleOfYowahCreek #AboriginalResistance #MassacreHistory #QueenslandFrontier #OralHistory #ContestedHistory #ColonialViolence #Reckoning #Memory #FexingoHistory #History #Oceania Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
