1 In the Land of Storm Boy, the Cultural Heritage of the Coorong Is under Threat Kelly D. Wiltshire , 2019 single work column
— Appears in: The Conversation , 17 January 2019;

'When I go to see the new film Storm Boy, which opens in cinemas nationally today, my mind will turn to the landscape that forms the film’s backdrop. This is the Kurangk (Coorong), land of the Ngarrindjeri Nation. The Nation’s cultural heritage, testifying to the Ngarrindjeri’s enduring connection to the region, is being destroyed by off-road vehicles.' (Introduction)
1 [Review] Deep Time Dreaming: Uncovering Ancient Australia Kelly D. Wiltshire , 2018 single work review
— Appears in: Australian Aboriginal Studies , no. 2 2018; (p. 85-87)

'A few years ago — prior to my current role — I was interviewed for a job at AIATSIS. After providing a description of my previous experience working as an archaeologist, I was informed by the chair of the interview panel that AIATSIS no longer undertakes archaeological research. I was surprised to learn this. Was I the only person in the interview room who knew of the historical association between AIATSIS and the discipline of Australian archaeology? Following the interview I set about hatching plans for an oral history project that would highlight the long historical association between AIATSIS and archaeology, in order to produce a more detailed account beyond the odd reference that seemed to exist within the published sources. Then I read Billy Griffiths’ Deep time Dreaming: uncovering ancient Australia and breathed a sigh of relief.' (Introduction)
