Australian aborigines by Sally Fallon and Mary G Enig, PhD O The Australian continent provides plentiful animal foods land mammals, birds, reptiles, seafood and insects plus a bewildering variety of plant foods. Conditions were lush in the subtropical areas along the coasts, and extremely harsh in the desert interior. Nevertheless, bushmen of the arid regions exhibited the same robust good health as their brothers living in the coastal forests. Each clan stayed within its own prescribed area, except to participate in certain religious ceremonies or to share in particularly bountiful harvests of foods like shellfish or nuts. Coastal groups built more or less permanent shelters and moved as a group only to take advantage of certain seasonal food supplies. Desert tribes were more wandering; they had larger territories and moved about according to the location of water and game. Smaller marsupials, such as the wallaby, paddy-melon, bandicoot and kangaroo rat, were also hunted. In the arid central regions, such small game has been replaced in part by rabbits. Echidna the spiny anteater is also hunted for its meat. The Aborigines did not hunt at night, but extracted nocturnal animals such as possum and koala bear both prized foods from their daytime resting places in various ingenious ways. The Aborigines would first detect the presence of the animal by its smell, claw marks or droppings, and confirm its presence by inserting a stick or frond tipped with honey into the hollow tree or log serving as a lair. If hairs stuck to the honey, they knew the animal was there. They extracted it either by climbing a tree to drag out the animal or by smoking it out of its resting place.

Index Australia Downunder Our entry is about Australia. It has numerous types of information about Australia ranging from geography and wildlife to history and culture. Since the Olympics 2000 is going to take place in Sydney, Australia we wanted to find out more about this country and felt others would be interested also. We included a section on Australian speech so that others could listen to the Australian accent. We put in information on tourist attractions for people who might be interested in traveling to Australia, so they could get an idea about what to visit. We wanted to make it an interactive site so we included quizzes and a coloring book. We hope our message board and guestbook will be a place where others will share their Australian experience and thoughts about our web site. Our educational objectives are to teach people about Australian history, geography, speech, animals, music, culture, attractions and weather.

If a flock of currawongs flies overhead you've only got four hours to get the washing off the line. If the queen wattle blooms heavily, bull ants abandon their tree nests for mounds of dirt, or meat ants cover nests with tiny, heat-reflecting quartz stones, then bushfires are coming. Sounds like mumbo-jumbo? Not to Australia's Bureau of Meteorology, which hopes to tap into the tens of thousands of years of Aboriginal weather knowledge to help it expand its understanding of the island continent's harsh climate. Aboriginal ideas about the weather can be starkly different.

Aboriginies in Australia by J. Clancy In Australia we have had a meeting of great white minds in the form of our Highest Court, which decided (after 200 years of not noticing the inhuman sufferings of Aborigines) that before the British soldiers arrived in 1788 with a mass of petty convicts to make us part of the British Empire, there were PEOPLE living here. Those people were a race of intelligent humans with black skins -Aborigines- who had resided here for a known 60000 years. What followed was a mass murder of those residents, especially by white police, graziers, army and business-men. Many were killed in weekly turkey shoots for sport, particularly if they were brave enough to defend their families. This continued till even 1950. Since then, our racist 'Police' have continued with normal murders, generally in secret deaths in custody, but the secrecy has now been exposed into common-knowledge. After so many years of survival on this harsh continent, no genes had developed to make Blacks immune from diseases like measles and also alcohol poisoning. Black people cannot absorb alcohol. Thus our jails have a very large percentage of Aborigines, mainly for being drunk and disorderly, insulting the police, swearing, fighting while intoxicated and generally being unable to understand white-man's laws. The police preferred method is to hang Blacks with football sox or strips of blankets and claim that they had suicided while drunk. Commonsense suggests that two men must have lifted the victim and arranged the other details. The evidence has been clear that tribal people must not be separated from their culture and family members. It is imperative that they not be jailed for minor offences, rather taken to their families and elders to be judged by Aborigine Laws, or, for drunkenness, driven a few miles out of town and left under a tree to sober-up to find their way home next day. Or the police could treat them like drunk white politicians and deliver them home? Some States have laws forbidding whites to sell liquor to them, but the whites have their own laws including making profits from the delivery of booze to an arranged transfer area.

7. The Past As Future: aborigines, australia and the (dis)course of History. Bain Attwood. 6. aboriginesand Anthropologists , australian Aboriginal Studies, no.1, 1986, pp.211. http://www.lib.latrobe.edu.au/AHR/archive/Issue-April-1996/Attwood.html

The Past as Future: Aborigines, Australia and the (dis)course of History Bain Attwood In the context of the birth of the new nation, 'Australian history' only began with Europeans, and so not only ignored the Aboriginal past but also erased the indigenes' prior presence. British colonisation was legitimated by naturalising a relationship between Europeanswho by now were called Australiansand the land Australia, thus denying any relationship between those who had been the first to be called Australians and Australia. Aborigines were further consigned to the past but not to history by dint of becoming the subject of anthropology rather than history. Indeed, the Aborigines were valued by this new discipline because they were construed as artifacts of the human past. Just as European history constituted its object in a temporal sensethe modern, the present (and the future), the civilisedso too did European anthropology invent its objectthe traditional, the past, the savage. As Bruce Trigger has noted, 'the original differentiation between history and anthropology was product of colonialism and ethnocentrism'.

10. Aboriginalism: White Aborigines And Australian Nationalism Rex Ingamells of the Jindyworobaks, whom Stephensen profoundly influenced, he didnot eulogise the aborigines as emblems of a timeless geographical australia. http://www.lib.latrobe.edu.au/AHR/archive/Issue-May-1998/mclean.html

Aboriginalism: White Aborigines and Australian Nationalism by Ian Mclean As in the previous world war, the Second World War produced an upsurge of nationalism, but one which, following the defeat of Singapore, sought a radical independence from Britain. The development of new iconographies of identity in the previous two decades, and especially in the 1930s, provided much of the basis for the nationalisms of the 1940s and 1950s, and their strong Aboriginalist character. One of the first signs was the literary journal Meanjin , founded by Clem Christensen in Brisbane in 1940. While Meanjin was uninterested in Aboriginal culture, it adopted an Aboriginal name to advertise the Australian-ness of its criticism and writing. In 1941 Christensen published a 'Nationality Number' which 'proclaimed the necessity of "developing here a distinctively-Australian culture"'. The achievement of this generation was to transform nativism into a distinctly anti-imperial indigenous consciousness. Vance Palmer saw in the war the chance for Australia to throw off its colonial past: If Australia had no more character than could be seen on its surface, it would be annihilated as sorely and swiftly as those colonial outposts white men built for their commercial profit in the East pretentious facades of stucco that looked imposing as long as the wind kept from blowing. But there is in Australia a different spirit, submerged and not very articulate, that is quite different from these bubbles of old-world imperialism. Born of the lean loins of the country itself, of the dreams of men who came here to form a new society, of hard conflicts in many fields, it has developed a toughness all its own.

Aborigines The Worlds Oldest Inhabitants? The word "aboriginal" means "the first" or "earliest known". The word was first used in Italy and Greece to describe people who lived there, natives or old inhabitants, not newcomers, or invaders. Australia may well be the home of the worlds first people. Stone tools discovered in a quarry near Penrith, New South Wales, in 1971 show that humans lived in Australia at least twelve thousand years before they appeared in Europe. So far three early sites have been discovered in Australia, the Penrith one being dated about forty-seven thousand years old, a Western Australian site forty thousand years old and another in Lake Mungo, New South Wales, thirty-five thousand years old. To put this in perspective, so that we can appreciate the time scales, since the first fleet arrived in 1788 there have only been 8 generations of settlers. On the other hand, there have been in excess of 18,500 generations of aboriginals!!! Aborigines And Their Culture More than 30,000 years ago the population of the world was small, and people lived in family groups, hunting, fishing and food gathering. There where no cultivated crops, animals were not herded for food and metalworking was yet to be discovered. At that time, known as the last great Ice Age, Australia was joined to New Guinea. Islands such as Java and Borneo were larger than today, sea passages between them narrower. This made it possible for the ancestors of the people now called Australian Aboriginals to reach Australia from lands to the north.

Photos While 1997 was the bicentenary of mining in Australia by people of European descent, the history of mining in this country stretches back much further. For more than 40 000 years before the arrival of the First Fleet in Sydney Harbour, Australian Aborigines had been mining the land for ochre and stone. While ochre and stone of one sort or another can be found almost anywhere in Australia, the ochre and stone deposits that were exploited by Aborigines were of particularly high quality. The higher the quality the larger the mining operation and the greater the distance over which the product was traded. Ochre from north western South Australia and from eastern Western Australia and stone axes from Mount Isa-Cloncurry were traded far outside these districts. At times many different clans would gather near a quarry site to trade for the stone or ochre and to hold ceremonies, initiations and other important cultural events.

Aborigines in Australia Written by Josef Reidlinger , 7B. April 1996 Bottom Homepage English pages The immigration The Aborigines have the longest cultural history in the world, with origins dating back to the last Ice Age. The first humans travelled across the sea from Indonesia over a landbridge to Australia and Tasmania, about 70,000 years ago. The next immigration followed 20,000 years later. The members of this group which had spread over the western part of Australia are the Aborigines' ancestors. The whole continent was colonised within a few thousand years. When the Europeans came to Australia in the 18 th century, they found about 750,000 "primitive" natives, as they called them, who seemed to live there as in the Stone Age. Life The Aborigines did not have agriculture and did not learn how to tame animals. They therefore had to live from what nature gave them. Hunting was therefore the only thing which they could do to get food. The men hunted animals such as kangaroos, snakes and emus. The women caught smaller animals and picked fruits, honey and seeds. They dug with graving tools for edible roots. The Aborigines had to walk around very much. Therefore they only carried the items they really needed with them: e. g. a spear, a boomerang, a wooden shild, a bag, wooden bowls, grindstones, graving tools and their cult objects (for example their famous paintings on barks). Social organisation Approximatly 500 various tribes existed. Each had their own territory, dialect or language. The leadership, if we can talk of a leadership, consisted of some of the oldest men of the tribe. When the Europeans came they could not find any uniform language, because after the immigration the Aborigines dispersed very much.
