18 How do the implements, pottery, ornaments etc. of each culture 

 seem to have been made ? 



19 What documents exist describing the tribes that lived here 

 when the country was first opened? How much may be learned

20 What persons have made collections of specimens from the 

 various sites of aboriginal occupation, and in what condition are 

 these collections?
