GOOD MORNING 3K VENUS My NEWS TOPIC for this week is: Aboriginal people before Colonisation
HOW & WHERE DID THE ABORIGINALS LIVE? • Before colonisation, Aboriginal people built many different structures suited to their surroundings. • Some of the structures built by Aboriginal people used building materials such as branches for timber frames covered with bark and hides for cladding. • Stone structures such as caves and natural shelters were also used.
Example of traditional housing such as this mia-miain north-western NSW can still be found.
HOW DID THE ABORIGINALS FEEL WHEN THEY SAW THE FIRST FLEET? • At first the Aborigines regarded the strange white men in large ships as ghosts, possibly ghosts of their own ancestors. • They were prepared to deal with them peacefully. As long as the two groups of people stayed out of each other's way, there was no conflict. • The real problems started when cultural misunderstandings occurred. • In one example, Captain Arthur Phillip sought to meet with an aboriginal tribesman on the beach.
