Indigenous dances

Research the different types of Aboriginal dances.

Write about a different dance and why it is important in Aboriginal culture. Has the dance become less important or more important over time?

Culture and traditions

Start uploading information this week on Aboriginal culture. Here is some information to get you started.

Australia's Aboriginal culture probably represents the oldest surviving culture in the world, with the use of stone tool technology and painting with red ochre pigment dating back over 60,000 years. Australians never developed an "iron age", "bronze age", or pottery, and the terms "palaeolithic" (old stone age) and "neolithic" (new stone age) are not used in Australia, because stone technology did not progress in the same way as the rest of the world.
