AIATSIS map Indigenous Australia

Mooi en informatief kaartje waarop de territoria van de oorspronkelijke Australische volkeren (aboriginals) worden weergegeven. | The AIATSIS map of Indigenous Australia is in a compact A3 size. The ancestral creative beings left languages on country, along with the first peoples and their cultures. More than 200 distinct languages, and countless dialects of them, were in use when European colonization began. While people in some communities continue to speak their own languages, many others are seeking to record and revive threatened ones. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples retain their connection to their traditional lands regardless of where they live. Using published resources available from 1988-1994,the map represents the remarkable diversity of language or nation groups of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples of Australia. The map was produced before native title legislation and is not suitable for use in native title or other land claims.
