Nicholas Miklouho-Maclay
By Clive Pambegan
On 25 October 1996, a bust of Nicholas Miklouho-Maclay was unveiled on Science Road in the University of Sydney to commemorate the one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of his birth. A Russian explorer, he became a prominent figure of nineteenth-century Australian science. Maclay was the first scientist to settle among and study people who had never seen a white man. Australia became his adopted country and Sydney the home town of his family.
Miklouho-Maclay arrived in Australia on board the Russian corvette Vityaz on 18 July 1878. A few days later, he approached the Linnean Society and offered to organise a zoological centre. The Marine Biological Station, located on the east side of Greater Sydney, was the first marine biological research institute in Australia.
He also carried out his research in New Guinea, Melanesia, Polynesia, Philippines and Indonesia. He visited many villages, studying the languages and culture of the Aborigines. With patience, courage and medical skill he won the confidence and co-operation of the inhabitants.
During the 1850s and 1860s there was much discussion connected with the study of human races and the interpretation of racial characteristics. Some anthropologists tried to prove that not all human races are of equal worth and that “white people” are predestined by “natural selection” to rule over the “coloured” races. This theory was used to justify slavery and colonialism. Miklouho-Maclay was one of the first anthropologists to oppose scientific racism. We remember him as an outstanding scientist, human rights activist and humanist.
