Aboriginal culture

Aboriginal history extends over at least 50,000 years. Knowledge, art and rituals have been passed down through generations to create a rich tapestry of cultural heritage – diverse, complex and spiritual. The relationship to the land or country is central to Indigenous culture and to the issues that are important to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people today.
