Aboriginals are the native population group of Australia. The tradition says they have been there in 40.000 years, and in the following generations have they scattered to different places of Australia, and gradually built many communities.

Songs, music and ceremonies played a big role in the traditional tribe life, and still do. Before the big scene, they painted themselves on face and body. They lived like nomads in small family groups in harmony with the nature.
