With a history dating back over tens of thousands of years, the Indigenous
People of Australia have a culture that is tied closely to the land around them.
It is a landscape of considerable variation and beauty, from the harsh arid
conditions of Central Australia, the tropical rainforests of the far north,
through to the temperate coastal regions popular with most modern Australians.
Their affinity with the land has over the many thousands of years evolved a
close understanding of the flora and fauna. Although some of this knowledge may
have been lost, with the appearance of white people to this continent, much is
still known and today, an entire industry has sprung up around Australian Bush
Tucker, Bush Food and Bush Medicine.
