History:
Wagadagam is an ancestral village of the Goegmulgal people and centre of the Koey Awgadhaw Khazi moiety (the crocodile). Wagadagam is located on the northwest coast of Mabuyag Island abutting Dhadhakul valley. The site contains a complex of rectangular stone cairns, linear and curvilinear stone arrangements, and abandoned garden terracing. Excavation of one abandoned terrace revealed a deep history of local environmental management. Torres Strait Islanders are seafaring peoples that engaged in the largest maritime economy in Australia. The maritime network consists of entangled yet autonomous islands and mainland communities that engaged in trade, exchange, marriage and warfare. This involved the multilateral movement of various cultural paraphernalia, including ceremony, in north to south and east to west directions across the Strait. Despite this, the region has been variably described as a boundary, bridge, barrier and cultural filter separating Australian "hunter-gatherers" and New Guinea "cultivators". Various historical accounts of voyagers, government officers and expeditions during the 19th and early 20th centuries detail widespread cultivation across the Torres Strait. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people had a history of skilfully resourcing food and managing the land long before Europeans arrived in Australia. Modern techniques, which are revealing progressively more about ancient Indigenous practices, have now found evidence of banana cultivation on Mabuiag Island around 2000 years ago. In Wagadagam Village, this converges with remains of agricultural terracing and ancient signs of substantial environmental changes.The terraces reflect intensified cultivation methods from around 1300 years ago.
