"As is the small plaque that acknowledges the existence of the Birpai people," she said. Ms Cohen said a local Birpai memorial garden, which was installed on the Port Macquarie Town Green in 2003, was "extremely low profile and modest". "Rather than ignoring the fact that skeletal remains were found and this was a major Birpai campsite, let's celebrate the fact that here we have evidence of one of the oldest living cultures and continuing cultures of the world," Ms Cohen said. "Disappointment that the community would rather acknowledge and honour one side of history but not the other," Ms Mehan said. The remains were reburied, as requested by the Birpai community, more than 25 years ago, and Ms Cohen said there had been little acknowledgement of the area as a Birpai occupation site since then. Ms Cohen said she felt conflicted in her role at the time and writing the paper was like "restorative justice".
