"Dhuluny" - commemorating the war of resistance by the Wiradyuri 1824 to 2024
A community commemoration of the Wiradyuri Homeland wars and the declaration of martial law in Bathurst the meaning of Dhuluny (dhu-loin) "truth, rectitude, that which is direct, straight, living or gospel".
The Junior Aboriginal Education Consultative Group (AECG) and GWTY discussed with the Elders the core components of the design. The spear and shield are symbolic of the resistance that Aboriginal people showed against martial law, and our resistance and strength then, now, and for the past 200 years.
In the centre of the design, there are 5 circles which represent the mob on Wiradyuri Country. The light blue also represents the water, the Wambuul, that flows through our Country along with the mountains in the shadows, which are at the top and bottom of the shield.
The diamond: the yellow and orange represent brightness of the sun, its connection to Aboriginal people, and our capacity to survive through dark times.
And let's not forget our fallen warriors, men, women and children, who fought to death to protect our way of life. They are represented by the red dots, symbolic of bloodshed, in the middle of the circles and on the spears.
