    Abstract

    This ANPS Technical Report is a revision of an earlier Technical report in which we describe a toponym typology designed for the Australian context. Since that version was developed, we have continued to apply the typology to our description of Australian placename origins; and throughout the ongoing research process it has become clear that certain refinements to the system were necessary if we were to deal most effectively with the data. We have benefited also from the work of toponymists in other regions who have applied this typology and noted possible improvements.
