East Arnhem Shire, in the north-eastern part of Arnhem Land including
Groote Eylandt, was created on 1 July 2008 as part of reform across the
Northern Territory. It includes 9 towns, one of which is Yirrkala, a Yolngu
community known for, among other things, traditional artists, the 'bark
petition' which played a significant part in the recognition of indigenous
land rights, and the band Yothu Yindi.
The logo features a tan turtle
facing left in the centre of a oval shaded blue in the middle and green around
the edge, with nine handprints straddling the outer edge with fingers
pointing inwards. The two at the top are yellow with red dots, at the left
are two orange hands with tan dots, at the bottom left two black with red dots,
the bottom right two pink with blue dots and to the top right a single green
hand with yellow dots. Presumably the hands represent the nine towns. Above
and below the emblem are the words "East Arnhem" "Shire Council" in 'Complete
in Him' typeface.
The logo resulted from a logo competition, with the
winning entry designed by Miss Sheridith Manggurra of Groote Eylandt with the
help of her grandmother Ms Rosalind Lalara, and then developed by a Darwin
based design company. (Council minutes regarding branding, 23 May 2012
