Linguistic Spatial Violence: The Muslim Cameleers in the Australian Outback

This piece is proffered as a reconciliation. I intend it as an appeasement across the disciplines of language documentation, linguistics, architectural history, and, to a smaller extent, Australian colonial and cultural history. Further, the creative license I take in my writing style and the topics with which I grapple mean that I hope to reach new understandings of a story about the history of the exploration of the Australian interior now becoming more broadly known: the cultural and physical history associated with the presence of the Afghan cameleers in Australia.
