The Podcast

Ep. 152. Dr Skye Krichauff

Dr. Skye Krichauff represents a new generation of Australian scholars who are fundamentally reshaping how we understand the complex relationships between Indigenous peoples and European settlers in colonial Australia.

As an ethno-historian affiliated with the University of Adelaide, Skye has dedicated her career to examining the enduring legacies of colonialism, particularly in South Australia, through a unique methodological approach that combines historical research with anthropological insights.

She is an ethno-historian who combines the methodologies of history and anthropology, bringing a distinctive interdisciplinary perspective to her research. This methodological fusion allows her to examine not only the documented historical record but also the lived experiences, cultural practices, and oral traditions that traditional historical approaches might overlook.

It's a fascinating discussion because the lack of Indigenous presence in this country’s written history – is being addressed by people like Dr Skye Krichauff.
