A particular historical travelling religious complex in northern Western Australia, usually known as Kurangara, has been the subject of anthropological attention since the late 1930s. Overlooked in all the literature is a similar account assigned to 1912–1918, in the distant Channel Country of southwest Queensland. This is in Alice Duncan-Kemp's last book, published in 1968. My examination shows that a good deal of Duncan-Kemp's account repeated parts of a 1954 popular magazine about Kurangara in the Pilbara. In other respects Duncan-Kemp may have drawn on her own childhood experiences, but in the absence of corroboration her account has to be considered unreliable.

昆士兰州的 Kurangara？：对 Duncan-Kemp 的评论的批判

自 1930 年代后期以来，西澳大利亚北部一个特殊的历史旅游宗教建筑群，通常被称为Kurangara，一直是人类学关注的主题。在所有文献中都忽视了 1912 年至 1918 年在昆士兰西南部遥远的海峡国家的类似描述。这是 Alice Duncan-Kemp 于 1968 年出版的最后一本书中的内容。我的检查表明，Duncan-Kemp 的大量叙述重复了 1954 年一本关于皮尔巴拉 (Pilbara) 的Kurangara 的流行杂志的部分内容。在其他方面，邓肯-肯普可能借鉴了她自己的童年经历，但由于缺乏佐证，她的说法被认为是不可靠的。
