“…Its originality consists in the description of specific characteristics and parameters to be used for the historical agro-industrial buildings' analysis. Furthermore, while the cited works have only dealt with the survey methodology for buildings of agro-industrial archaeology (Arias et al, 2006;García Moruno et al, 2006) or historical description of entire sites (Hillinger et al, 2001;Linehan, 2000;Shackel and Palus, 2006), the methodology of this study also presents the innovative approach of linking the buildings so analysed with the socio-economic transformation of agricultural territories connected with them.…”

“…Characteristic examples of this industrial dimension and organisation are found in Swedish rural settings (Geijerstam, 1990), in the rural settlements of Verla Groundwood in Finland, in the industrial site of Virginius Island (Shackel and Palus, 2006) and in some other European examples (Kivinen, 1996;Zappavigna, 1996;Ayuga and García, 1996).…”

“…En ambos casos, los restos son perfectamente accesibles para a400 el público, facilitando una interpretación de conjunto que abarca también las condiciones laborales y familiares de los mineros. Este doble aspecto estimula las visitas, en este y en otros enclaves de patrimonio industrial (Shackel y Palus, 2006).…”

Impulsados inicialmente los proyectos desde las administraciones pú-blicas, sobre todo de ámbito municipal, con participación activa de las empresas propietarias y la comunidad local, hoy son un extraordinario referente de puesta en valor de un legado muy peculiar que ofrece amplias posibilidades de reutilización bajo la perspectiva irrenunciable del desarrollo sostenible.PALABRAS CLAVE: Patrimonio industrial; turismo; proyectos de recuperación; desarrollo sostenible; ecomuseos. ABSTRACT:Old mining and industrial areas, many of them already abandoned after prolonged extractive and productive activity, often put up good experiences associated with recovery heritage and landscapes. Initially promoted by public administrations, particularly municipal bodies, with the active participation of private companies and the local community, nowadays these projects are an extraordinary reference for valuing a peculiar legacy that offers extensive possibilities for reuse under the indispensable perspective of sustainable development.

“…However, local museums and historical societies generally have tended to collaborate in celebrations of the collective memory (Shackel 2001) of the mining elite rather than acknowledging the history and heritage of the workers (see, for example, Shackel and Palus 2006a). At the Gayndah Museum, for example, numerous large items of mining machinery acquired from across the Upper Burnett are displayed with little or no contextualising information.…”

Kin, fictive kin and strategic movement: working class heritage of the Upper Burnett

The Upper Burnett district of southeast Queensland, Australia is a landscape of working class resilience in the face of natural and institutional oppression. The Upper Burnett was the site of numerous small goldmining towns throughout the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Physically, most of these towns now survive only as archaeological remnants, yet both the tangible heritage elements and the intangible forms of labour heritage, such as stories in the landscape and of movement between places, contribute to the shared and continued attachment of the Burnett community to its mining history. Historical archaeological, sociological and landscape studies, including long-term projects working with descendents of the mining families, have provided detailed insight into the palimpsest of meanings applied to the social landscape of the working class inhabitants. Oral history, documentary and archaeological research have been conducted on the townships of Paradise, Mount Shamrock, Monal and Cania. The cultural landscape of these towns can be seen as a complex heritage of working class pastimes, networks of labour through kin and fictive kin relationships, strategic movement across the region and the interaction between communities. Although the local museums tend to memorialise the physical heritage of the goldmining through collecting and displaying the impressive material culture (such as stampers, berdan pans, mine wheels, etc.), it is the stories, meanings, diaries, and the continued attachments to these places today that play the larger role in the remembering of the working class past.
