3. Different Aboriginal tribes speak different
languages. There are so many Aboriginal

world.
4. The Aboriginal people believed that dreamtime
stories were real they still could be real. The

made the land before they went to heaven.
5. Usually women stay at the camp and dig for
grubs and all sorts of bugs. The men go out
hunting for Kangaroos, wombats and many
more big mammals to eat. The women also
hunt lizards. The animals that the men bring
back are cooked by the men.
6. Aboriginals had a traditional diet, one of the
foods are wallabies. Also when they have
special celebrations they have some traditional
food such as berries. Aboriginal people had a
very strict diet ( bush tucker )
7. Aboriginal people used tools such as digging
sticks, spears and boomerangs. They used
these used these tools to hunt for food. They
also used Implements to dig up grubs and
insects. Aboriginal tools and implements were
very special to the Aboriginal people because
they were used every day.
8. Aboriginal people danced around a fire with
music this music was made by the Aboriginal
people. A Didgeridoos is always made out of
wood and it’s not just a musical instrument it is
also a piece of art because it has paint over it.
Didgeridoos make very beautiful noises, like
animal noises.
9. Aborigines have many sacred places such as
Uluru. Sometimes only Aboriginal
people are able to indentify the
sacred sites. There are many
natural sacred sites around Australia such as
waterfalls and rocks. It is very important that
everyone respects these sacred sites.
10. In 1770 Captain James Cook arrived, he raised the
British flag for the king of England. There were
many problems between the British people and
the Aboriginal people because the British
people didn’t ask the Aboriginal people to
claim the land. The British and Aboriginal
people didn’t understand each other so there
were many problems when the new settlement
came.
11. In now days Aboriginal people wear lots of
clothing and have proper houses. Aboriginal
people still have sacred sites and special
musical instrument such as Didgeridoos.
Aboriginal people also still dance around fires
for special celebrations, Aboriginal people are a
very important part of our world.
