From the 1860s, most Aboriginal people in south-eastern Australia were confined to reserves such as Ebenezer Mission, and despite official accounts which argue for the success of the 'civilising' enterprise, archaeological evidence promises to provide a new Indigenous perspective. Investigation of this key site, in collaboration with Aboriginal descendants, will reveal 1. How everyday life on the mission was experienced by different social groups: Aboriginal girls, boys, families and 'fringe' dwellers, and Moravian missionaries, 2. The role of gender organisation within the colonial process, and 3. How Aboriginal cultural identity was shaped by missionisation. A range of general and scholarly histories will be produced.

从1860年代开始，澳大利亚东南部的大多数原住民都局限于诸如埃比尼泽（Ebenezer）任务之类的储备，尽管官方说法主张“文明”企业的成功，但考古证据还是有望提供新的土著观点。与原住民后裔合作对这个关键网站的调查将揭示1。殖民过程中的性别组织和3。如何通过传教来塑造土著文化认同。将产生一系列一般和学术历史。
