WA 12th Sept

The Unclaimed:  


The divide wall


With a small wall separating the area. It seems the Wall was all the way. This unclaimed, separated or disowned graves where not even marked or recorded. Why? They are not given the privileged place? May be earlier it was too obvious but now in the landscape you can only realize when you walk till there. They are all covered in white stones - which is also different than the rich earth colours on others. 








The story is maybe 80 to 90 years back - people who where not wanted or did bad deeds or committed suicides - committed a sin -they where not allowed to be buried within the privileged cemetery they where out-casted even after their death.  



Claiming the unclaimed land: 

This small grave I found on the way to the cemetery: basically in the deep desert it seems there are many such Graves. In the mid 20th century many Afghans (the Australian Muslims) where buried in many such deserted lands which might be called Hidden stories. 

This Below Grave i am not sure it is of a human baby or an animal. because of the rain the text is missing: it just says: this----is----belongs--mellisa--machell
