@redmooncrystal yeah..the trees that adapted learned to drop heeeeaps of seeds after a fire to ensure that they have survivors after the next fire.I cant believe that 60`000 years ago or whenever it was that they started using fire, that they thought of using it to make the land become more productive.The environment reacted to their actions and lucky for them it was beneficial for them.

@grigorione Aboriginals burnt the land to increase its productivity, for after a fire there was a much greater range of annual vegetation. In fact these ancient people's entire way of being revolved around keeping an equilibrium between themselves and their environment. Their Dreamtime beliefs ensured that people respected the Earth their mother, and they only took as much from her as they needed to survive. As an Australian, I would never use the term destructive to describe their way of life.

@cpiMan666 many academics believe that Australia may have been inhabited up to 120 000 years ago, but most say at least 60 000 years.

@lunafringe10 ,australia once was a rainforrest all over..untill the aboriginals burned it to get thier food..the trees here had to adapt because of it..they burned the land so much and so often that some of the trees here now have to be burned or they cant seed again properly.which is why tasmania is still a rainforrest all over,they didnt use fire to hunt there.all humans are destructive,just depends on the tech in hand

@Kingtunice well australia was inhabited by aboriginals ancestorys about 40 000- 50 000 years ago. no 1 no how old it really is but about 20 000-30 000 years old culture, how ever it is the oldest culture what have survived until the modern times, but sad is that more and more pll are forgetting it becose aborginals does not do the same daily work they have done thousands years now they work in factortys etc also their selery is half from others, isn't that sad ?

The 'music' is telling a story, The iconology or as Europeans call it 'Art' is also mostly telling of a time and place but there are many different types here, from different indigenous Australian cultures and also neoclassical more modern Australian Aboriginal genres. The circles are classical campfire symbols of a meeting maybe a hunt maybe to record an event. I shouldn't be telling this. The' young girl from Brisbane' should be telling me. |
