Archaeology of the Dreamtime: The Story of Prehistoric Australia and her People
Josephine Flood
Josephine Flood draws a fascinating and absorbing picture of prehistoric Australia, of a dynamic and highly adaptable people whose art, religion and social organisation were complex, whose trading networks covered vast distances, and whose ingenuity and technological skills enabled them to survive in one of the most inhospitable continents in the world.
This text explores how the first inhabitants reached Australia over 50,000 years ago. Using archaelogical evidence and aboriginal oral traditions, the book tells the history of these people. It examines the ways in which the Aborigines adapted to and modified their environment, and how their art and culture developed.
