The Aborigines - Australia's Native People
The aborigines australia s native people.
http://www.en.original-people.eu.org/aborigines.shtml

Extractions: Narrative The word Aborigine is a concatenation of the Latin words ab (from) and origine (beginning) meaning the Aborigines were in Australia from the beginning or native . It is the second word origine, the white people used for the natives after calling them Indians. Initially the word aborigine, probably involved some kind of disdain. Recent findings in Kakadu National park show that there might have been human life in Australia for up to 60.000 years, while referring to former estimations the aborigines came overland from New Guinea about 40.000 years ago. Aboriginal land rights Before the coming of the white man, major factors in the life of the Aboriginal were the community and the land in which they dwelt. Nowadays the dominant factor in the life of the Aboriginal is the influence of European culture. The issue of Aboriginal Land Rights has become a major one over the past few years and has met with varying degrees of support or opposition. The issue is extremely complex and emotive. While there does not appear to be any clear-cut solution to the problem, the increasing awareness within wide spectrum's of Australian society may bring the issue closer to a solution. It is interesting to note that the problem of Land Rights had already been raised well over a century ago but the overall attitude toward the Aboriginal people at that time greatly hindered any real support for its cause.

Wanampi formed different features in the landscape around Papunya in the Northern Territory. These features are represented by the different colours in the background of the painting. There is still uncertainty surrounding the exact timing of the initial human colonisation of Australia, and both the timing and nature of megafaunal extinctions.

Australia has agreed to be bound by all major international human rights Conventions and has taken a high profile on promoting human rights internationally - especially in opposing apartheid in South Africa. But both national and international bodies are now saying that Australia is itself guilty of fundamental human rights breaches in its treatment of its indigenous citizens. The UN Committee on the Elimination of all Forms of Racial Discrimination (CERD) exists to monitor and end racial discrimination. It considers reports by Governments on racial discrimination in their countries and follows up urgent cases of racial discrimination brought to its notice.

Warren Owens from the Mission Australia patrol says the safe houses could be modelled on the Maori longhouse system in New Zealand. He says some itinerants sleep rough in Darwin as they can not return home because they have been barred. "If they know there is somewhere safe, you'll get most of these people off the streets, because they're just like other people," he said. "If they have a venue to go to, a safe house, a safe area as was brought up, there really isn't many safe areas for these people to have a drink."

Few realize, however, that similar accounts occur in other parts of the world. Australian Aborigines have stories of encounters with huge, sometimes frightening monsters which range from what sound like dinosaurs to giant marsupials, also believed to have long become extinct. Such oral traditions tend not to last more than a few hundred years without being distorted out of recognition. This would suggest that some of these animals may have still been living in Australia some two to three hundred years ago, or even more recently. Such a conclusion may surprise many, but it would explain why documented encounters with similar monsters post-date the time of European settlement.

Extractions: By the BBC's Elizabeth Blunt in Durban Amid the diplomatic posturing and the haggling over language at the World Conference against Racism it is easy to lose sight of the reality of racism. Each day during the meeting in South Africa some of those who have suffered discrimination have been telling their personal stories. Among them is Monica Morgan, from the Aboriginal Yorta Yorta people of south-eastern Australia. There were 20,000 Yorta Yorta people in that region before the British - what Monica Morgan calls the "first boat people" - came in 1788. By the end of the 19th century, fewer than 100 were left. Trauma Now their population has recovered to 4,000, but she told the conference how the survivors had been traumatised by the collective effects of two centuries of racism.

Membership in a section determines ritual and territorial claims. In half of the hordes the men are divided among the Karimera and Burung sections; in the other half they are divided among the Palyeri and Banaka sections. These sections are exogamous, and rules of

Recent findings in Kakadu Nationalpark show that there might have been human life in Australia for up to 60.000 years , while referring to former estimations the aborigines came overland from New Guinea about 40.000 years ago. The aborigines' life was ruled by their relation to their land. In their point of view their land didn't mean possessing land but was just a certain region through which the members of a clan had wandered within several years. Everything the people needed for living was given to them by their land. So getting food was one of the main tasks during the day. While men kept traditions and went hunting, women collected small animals, fruits and parts of plants that could be used for food, tools or clothes. Women as well prepared meals. So the aborigines were nomads, several small groups who met from time to time in order to maintain traditions and keep cultural and social heritage. These traditional values are often called dreamtime and are stored in dreamtime stories. A lot of songs and dances base on these stories and were used to transfer the knowledge and tradition to the following generations. In addition a lot of dreamtime stories were expressed in paint art like rock paintings or bark paintings.

Extractions: Main Page See live article Alphabetical index Australian Aborigines are the indigenous peoples of Australia . Their ancestors probably arrived in Australia just over 50,000 years ago, although the date remains uncertain. Some researchers put the date of arrival at close to 100,000 years ago, but the case for very early occupation presently rests on a single archeological site of uncertain date. At the time of first contact with the European colonists in the late 18th century , most Aboriginals were hunter-gatherers with a complex oral culture and spiritual values based upon reverence for the land and a belief in the Dreamtime . The Dreamtime is at once the ancient time of creation and the present day reality of dreaming. (Also see Aboriginal mythology There were a great many different Aboriginal groups, each with their own individual culture, belief structure, and language (approximately 200 different languages at the time of European contact). These cultures overlapped to a greater or lesser extent, and evolved over time. Lifestyles varied a great deal, and the sterotyped image of a proud and naked hunter standing one-legged in the red sand of the central Australian desert cannot be applied across the board. In present-day Victoria , for example, there were two separate communities with an economy based on fish-farming in complex and extensive irrigated pond systems (one on the Murray River in the state's north, the other in the south-west near Hamilton), and trade with other groups from as far away as the

"If you reconstructed the single original island, you got a picture oddly suggestive of the capital of Atlantis as described by Plato; and ancient walls were known to be buried under the lava and cinders. That settlement might be better preserved than Pompeii, what parts had not vanished in the catastrophe. To be sure, Plato could simply have been embellishing his discourses in the Timaios and the Kritias with a fiction. He had put his lost continent in midocean, impossibly big and impossibly far back if it was to have fought Athens. Yet there was some reason to believe he drew on a tradition, that half-memory of the Minoan empire which flickered through classical legend.

Extractions: Or search the encyclopaedia: Australian Aborigine This photograph of an Australian Aboriginal camp was taken in 1895, before the policy of assimilation was implemented. This policy, which was carried out between 1910 and 1970, involved Aboriginal children being removed from their homes in the Northern Territory and either put in orphanages or placed in white families. The Arnhem Land Escarpment, a stark sandstone wall, marks the western edge of Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, Australia. Rich in uranium, bauxite, and manganese, Arnhem Land was threatened with ruthless exploitation. The 1976 Aboriginal Land Act gave the land rights to the Aboriginal groups of the area, and permission to mine must be obtained from them. Aborigines in the Australian outback. Aboriginal people have lived in Australia for more than 40,000 years. When Europeans began to colonize Australia in the late 18th century, there were around 300,000 Aborigines, of perhaps 500 different linguistic and cultural groups, on the continent. Very few now live in the remote outback, most having moved into the cities or large towns.
