- Australian Aboriginal culture is one of the world's longest surviving cultures dating back at least 50,000 years. Aboriginal people lived semi-nomadic lifestyles in regional groups with their own languages and cultures. - Aboriginal art has a history of over 30,000 years and includes body painting, rock art, bark paintings, and more which were used to mark territory, record history, and tell stories from the Dreamtime. - Aboriginal culture and spirituality is closely tied to the land with Dreamtime stories explaining how the land and natural features were created by ancestral spirits. These stories continue to shape Aboriginal identity and culture.
