The dude has an aboriginal agenda - pretty funny for a grubba

It is a common misconception that "hunter-gatherers" just live off the "natural" landscape, like other fauna. But they do not. They manage vast landscapes. All people, from the very beginning, have been ecological engineers. Indigenous people use fire ecology and replanting of favoured food plants to shape their entire landscape into massive gardens and food forests. This does not mean they were "agriculturalists", because agriculture is almost always associated with private land tenure and early city-states. There is a common notion, not just in Australia, but all over the Americas and Africa, that European style "farming" is better and more admirable than mere "hunting and gathering". But this is a false idea. And the finest soils are to be found in regions where the foraging people encourage a vast mosaic of varying stages of secondary growth. This is due to the many species of colonizing plants in such successions fix nitrogen through bacteria that live in their root nodules. Imposing European land use and crops on the landscape of Australia is detrimental to soils because it replaces these beneficial fire-stick practices with ploughing that exposes the soil to wind and water erosion. Imposing laws that prevent the hunter-gatherer "fire-stick farming" - which, by the way is common to hunter-gatherer and horticultural economies wherever they are still found, on every continent - are equally misguided, as these practices not only create these productive wild "food-scapes", they also prevent disastrous wildfires.

Modern agriculture feeds literally billions of people. Without it there would be a mass extinction as the majority would starve. Pre colonial Australia supported a population estimated at less than a million people. A people who lived a precarious existence on the edge of survival. They manipulated their environment through the use of fire but this was not particularly good for the land either. The remnants of native flora and fauna are the survivors. Only those species which were able to adapt to regular fire events survived the onslaught of aboriginal colonisation. The original rainforest that covered the continent and the mega fauna that lived here were wiped out driven to extinction by the first Australians. Modern Australian farming feeds a population of over 30 million. We are also one of the world major food exporters. Hunter gatherer populations are only able to maintain small populations. They remain at the mercy of nature. Agriculture is a stepping stone to other technologies. Once people become sedentary they are able to spend more time on other pursuits. The food security enables people to explore other industries. Metal work pottery art music architecture boat building and trade are able to flourish because people are no longer tied to the endless struggle to survive. The modern delusion that hunter gatherer societies live in some kind of utopian harmony with nature is simply not true. It is a hard and uncertain existence. Requires a relentless and constant search for food firewood and shelter. Provides a limited seasonal diet sometimes unpalatable. It is not a lifestyle that any sane person would choose over our comfortable agricultural based society.

Except that indigenous Australians didn't grow crops or spell paddocks.

Isaac Batey is not typically known as the first farmer in Australia, but he is recognized as an important early settler and farmer in the Australian colonies. His life and work contribute to the understanding of early agricultural practices in Australia. Early Life and Background Birth: Isaac Batey was born on February 5, 1836, in Lancashire, England. Migration to Australia: He emigrated to Australia with his family as a child, settling in the Port Phillip District, which later became part of Victoria. Contributions to Farming in Australia Early Settlements: Family Settlement: The Batey family settled in the Sunbury area, north-west of Melbourne. Isaac's father, John Batey, was among the early settlers who established farms in this region. Pioneering Efforts: Isaac Batey continued his family's pioneering efforts, contributing to the development of agricultural practices in the area. Farming Practices: Sheep Farming: Like many early settlers, the Bateys engaged in sheep farming, which was a significant industry in colonial Australia. Sheep farming played a crucial role in the economy, providing wool for export. Crop Cultivation: In addition to livestock, early farmers like Batey cultivated crops suited to the Australian climate, experimenting with various grains and vegetables. Community Contributions: Local Historian: Isaac Batey is remembered for his contributions as a local historian. He documented the experiences of early settlers and Indigenous Australians, providing valuable insights into the early colonial period. Written Works: His writings include detailed accounts of daily life, farming practices, and interactions with the Aboriginal people. These records are valuable historical sources. Context of Early Australian Agriculture First Farmers: The title of the "first farmer in Australia" is more accurately attributed to early European settlers who established agricultural practices in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Figures like James Ruse are often credited with being among the first successful farmers. Ruse, a former convict, was granted land at Rose Hill (near modern-day Parramatta) and proved that European-style farming could be successful in the Australian environment. Indigenous Farming: It's important to note that Indigenous Australians practiced sophisticated forms of land management and farming long before European settlement. These included techniques such as fire-stick farming, yam cultivation, and fish trapping, as observed by explorers like Sir Thomas Mitchell and George Grey. Legacy Historical Significance: Isaac Batey's contributions as a settler and historian provide a window into the early agricultural development of Victoria. His records help historians understand the challenges and successes of early farming communities. Recognition: While not the "first farmer," Batey’s work is part of the broader narrative of pioneering agricultural efforts that shaped the Australian landscape and economy. Conclusion Isaac Batey was a significant early settler and farmer in colonial Australia, contributing to the agricultural development of the Sunbury area in Victoria. His work as a local historian provides valuable insights into the lives and practices of early settlers and their interactions with Indigenous Australians. While he may not hold the title of the first farmer in Australia, his contributions are an important part of the country's agricultural history.

Though the process of adapting to farming takes many generations it eventually replaces hunter gatherer communities once they are exposed to and in competition with agricultural people. Being free from the endless struggle of nomadic movements and the unpredictable resources of nature allows men to put their effort into other pursuits. In agricultural societies we see an increase in the production of high quality craft and manufacture, buildings become more sophisticated, art and music flourish. In general the number and quality of available goods grows exponentially. It is the nature of people to want luxury and material goods (the morality of this is another question but one I will leave for the philosophical pundits to argue). Todays aboriginal people live on the fruit of agricultural success. Although they still indulge in some hunting, fishing or foraging it is no longer carried on in the pursuit of survival but rather as a representation of cultural identity and recreation. Generally carried out with the aid of modern vehicles and guns or boats and fishing lines. Relying entirely on modern western cultural traditions for food, shelter, transport and healthcare.

@@warwicklewis8735 I get where you're coming from, but I simply think you can't say with certainty that farming is a progression from hunter-gathering. It depends on various factors, including environmental factors. For example, in "Guns, Germs and Steel", Jared Diamond talks about how Indigenous Australians in the Torres Strait islands/North Queensland traded with communities in New Guinea who had established agricultural practices. When introduced to domestic pigs, Indigenous Australians did not adopt a sedentary lifestyle and begin farming, because there was simply no need for it; hunter-gathering as a way of life was most convenient and suited their environment, and despite being introduced to domestic pigs, they did not feel a need to part from their lifestyle. This also brings into question your point about how agriculture was "soon adopted by every other culture that had contact with the idea". But my primary point is that environment has a lot to do with it, and this is why farming began in the fertile crescent; conditions were perfect with easily domesticatable plants and animals, and a favourable climate. Not everywhere is suited to a sedentary lifestyle, like in Australia where there are few places with perfect soil, few animal species favourable for domestication, and the climate in some areas is not ideal which means there may be a worse quality of life, and the advancements you have talked about may be further out of reach. Another good example to illustrate this is in the book "Van Diemen's Land" when newly arrived Brits in Australia ended up adopting a semi-nomadic lifestyle over time, because that was better suited to the environment and presumably because it guaranteed a better quality of life. It should also be noted that there is no inherent value to a farming or hunter-gathering way of life; they are both complex and don't belong on some sort of evolutionary hierachy. There are advantages to adopting a sedentary lifestyle, but there are also disadvantages and limitations.

Thank you Bruce for all of your research and spreading the word of Australia's real history. I would recommend anyone watching this to check out some of Bruce's other videos. Incredible information.

Mr Pascoe’s cites for information on the aboriginal grain agriculture, the researcher Harry Allen, who has three separate works cited in Dark Emu including, “The Bagundji of the Darling Basin: Cereal Gatherers in an Uncertain Environment” (1974). From the same, beloved explorers' accounts* that Mr Pascoe used for evidence in Dark Emu, as well as other historical records, Harry Allen was able to build up a model of Bagundji subsistence activities, but came to completely the opposite conclusion as Mr Pascoe with regard to the possible presence of pre-colonial aboriginal agriculture. Harry Allen summarises his peer-reviewed findings in the abstract summary as follows: “The Bagundji economy was primarily riverine in character based on the collection of aquatic foods and wild cereals. Seasonal variations in their subsistence activities can be related to seasonal variations in the productivity of their habitat. Despite a long period of association with wild cereals, the Bagundji remained hunters and gatherers and apparently made no attempt to cultivate these cereals. Possible reasons for this are examined. No simple explanation can be put forward to explain either the specific problem of the absence of agriculture from the Darling River Basin or the general problem of the absence of agriculture from Aboriginal Australia as a whole."

Bruce Pascoe makes some pretty wild claims, taken from original sources that are prone to bias. Indigenous Australians were not just farmers as they also hunted kangaroo and other animals. I believe they utilised the land around them in the best way possible to supply their food: harvesting, foraging, hunting, fishing, & burning.

@@warwicklewis8735 , your other response to my other post is your answer. Whilst Aboriginals made the most of their food resource, our food was vastly better - tastier, with more energy density, and many Aboriginal foods were poisonous if not prepared correctly. The reason humanity changed to rely on farming was for these reasons too. Native food gathering cannot support local consumption as well as excess for sale. Many Aboriginals in more remote areas of Australia do harvest native food to eat. It's a bit hard for Aboriginies in built up areas to do likewise, of course. I think Bruce Pascoes idea of endless native food resources is a fantasy, their population was not very large, and accounts I've read talk of some Indigenous starving in lean years.

Australia has a long written history (since 'colonisation') of drought ruining food supplies (with our more modern imported farming techniques) and serious starvation and depravation resulting from that. There are records showing how many 'settlers' were wiped out from famine. I think it is a pity so much knowledge has already been lost.

hilarious. the australian media outlets put this stuff by pascoe on youtube, but they turn the comments off so the public can't put facts in the story

When particular foodstuffs were in great abundance local tribes would sometimes invite neighbouring people to come and get some too. This meant very large, if not huge temporary gatherings. Bruce embroiders these events a bit to strengthen his arguments about agriculture and settled dwellings. It's not entirely accurate. One thing he gets completely wrong is when he claims the First Australians were the "most peaceful people on Earth". This is simply not true, so you might question where else is he departing from reality? Unfortunately, all cultures have blood on their hands. One tribe Bruce identifies with is the Bunurong. A neighbouring tribe, the Gurnai, tried to wipe out the entire Bunurong tribe in 1834. The main Bunurong camps were attacked at Brighton, Dromana and Koo Wee Rup. Half of all the Bunurong people were killed. It was genocide. The tribes saw each other as different humans, so it was also a race war. The two tribes had been at war for hundreds, possibly thousands of years. Previous to this the Gurnai tribe invaded the region of Wilsons Promontory and had wiped out the Bunurong 'Yowengerre' clan there. The Gurnai took ownership of this conquered territory. Conflicts like these appear nowhere in Bruce's narratives or 'truth-telling'.

Australian's are among world leaders when it comes down to each of your topics. They owe this to the European settlers who brought the skills, seeds, and animals here. Ideal climate with good soil and access to water. Yes, Henry, you are right. Our Indigenous tell good stories too.

Thanks Bruce. Great to see this researched information is being told. It's great to hear the real stories of Australian history being told. THANKS Bruce.

" researched " hahahaha Real research like that in the archeological record or historians that have studied the eyewitness accounts of many thousands of reliable witnesses tell us that aboriginals never produced any agriculture. Bruce actually admits that he had all ready reached his conclusions before he began the research, this is unacceptable in scientific disciplines because it leads to bias in favour of preconceived ideas. This is clearly why he has ignored the great many accurate contempory descriptions available and focused on the journal of just one, Major Thomas Mithchell, a man who's self serving and unreliable nature was recognized in his own time by those who actually knew him. I will ask you the questions I have not yet found an answer for Where are these crops ??...the modern diet consists of produce from every culture that farmed but not one single Australian native species. Why have no farming tools ever been found here ??...to farm requires specific tools none have been found here. Why were aboriginal population density so low??....farming allows more people to live in a smaller area and provides stable food source that result in larger groups of more densely populated areas. Why aren't they growing these crops now??....with the world facing climate disaster wouldn't native crops that are adapted for our harsh environment be a naturally better alternative than the water hungry species presently being grown. There are massive financial incentives for aboriginal business start ups and calls for remote communities to become more self sustainable you would think these alternate grains would be served on every table.

This dude is an aboriginal activist. He is out to shame the 'white' man. The funny thing is that he is clearly one of those!. Not a lot of aboriginal blood in him.

Not being curious or astonished that the ancestors of Aboriginal Australians were the earliest pioneers of our migrational human ancestors to get to this continent before our other ancestors reach many parts of Asia, Europe or the Americas from our collective place of origin in Africa is very sad. We all form an amazingly diverse tapestry originating from the same human gene pool that has found creative ways to live in all corners of the planet and found amazingly creative ways to manage the landscape to prosper and survive. Our human ancestors that were skillful enough to reach this continent at least 600000 years ago is the most overlooked achievement of our species and the amount of destruction and disrespect for the incredible civilization that the diverse cultures of Aboriginal Australia were able to achieve by being the most sustainable custodians of a continent should make all Australians (and all humans) deeply respectful and proud as a nation and as human beings. They were forced ( in the most brutal way) in only 200 years to lose almost 90% of this culturally technological knowledge and deep understanding of the land to all of our detriment. The fact that some still survives within Aboriginal communities today is incredible and should be protected and understood to help redress the destructive non sustainable tendency of the dominant cultural practices we see causing havoc to human society everywhere today. We are all human with the same patterns of understanding and ancestral interconnection with each other. Now more than ever in our history we have the opportunity to use the collective knowledge we have acquired since the great ancient migrations to shed the negative and emphasise the amazing achievements such as those our Australian Aboriginal brothers and sisters have managed to retain despite the genocidal attempt to eradicate them and their culture (indirectly it is also all of us and our shared cultural history). Forget linear historical propaganda which when have been brainwashed to believe (to justify the greedy imperial and materialistic aspects of our cultural nature) let us focus on the achievements as an incredibly diverse global species. Nuclear fusion and space programs are not necessarily indicative of a wise culture as we have seen from the unimaginable destruction and political fuckery that they have wrought in the hands of cultures who claim to be the most civilized but will do anything to suppress and deny wisdom and basic humanity in their own and other cultures in the process. Let us use the example of our Australian Aboriginal family and what they have been through in the past 10's of thousands of years and in the past 200 (when other branches of the human family arrived on the continent and formed the thing we now know as Australia), of our common humanity and that great wisdom that can help the world needs to be recognised and celebrated and that any human civilization is just as fragile as the next in our ability to lose what we ignorantly believe gives us cultural superiority over others when we are all related through deep time on this earth

Do you have any examples of this wisdom and knowledge you speak of ?? With all due respect I'm just curious what exactly it is that you think they knew All the evidence points to their arrival on this continent around 45 000 years ago Within 5-10 000 years they had caused the mass extinction of the mega fauna Destroyed the ancient rainforest environment and created a dry period that continues to this day The fire resistant drought hardy species that remain are the survivors of a rapid man made extinction event The 17th century was called the age of discovery Not just Europeans but all of mankind had reached a technological level of boat building and navigation that was expanding human horizons The existence of Australia was already known It was inevitable that someone was going to exploit the resources here In fact the English decided to establish a colony here as a strategic base specifically to keep other world powers from doing so We all live in the modern world today It doesn't matter iif you are African Indonesian Irish or aboriginal the calender still reads 2024 The ancient knowledge of how to track a goanna across the dessert or grind a stone axe head is no longer valid The skills needed to survive in todays global economy are not found in bark huts or shady billabong The modern farmer feeds 30 million Australians and is a major exporter of food to the world Ancient Australia barely supplied the food requirements of less than 1 million malnourished individuals Yes we invented bombs and poison But we also invented hospitals charity medicine human rights democracy and air conditioners Our achievements should be celebrated Do you dwell on your personal failures and mistakes ? Or do you prefer to focus on the things you have done well and your best moments Wallowing in the misery of your lowest points is mentally destructive This applies also on a national scale We are not the sum of our mistakes Australia is built on our best efforts and our noblest actions

Everyone knows the indigenous people had their own space program, NBN, nuclear power plants, aero space industry, cities with high rise buildings and satellite programs, prior to settlement.

Hi, Folks. Let me see ANY SCIENTIFIC proof of ANY of this MIS-information and I will apologize for this comment. I have wandered around Western Australia from South to North and I have seen some of the rock art in this country. I have also seen just how little the Aboriginal people changed the country and how little indication of their occupancy of said country they left behind. I have seen tidal fish traps constructed of rocks that let tidal water filter in through the rocks and fish swim over the top as the tide rose high enough, only to leave some of the fish stranded on the 'wrong' side of the rock wall as the tide receded. I have seen some of their midden heaps of shellfish shells that indicate a LONG history of collecting and eating these food sources I have seen the etched rock art that can be found in various places in the Pilbara in Western Australia and elsewhere, some of which had great significance for Aboriginal survival by indicating the direction and distance to water NOWHERE have I EVER seen ANY signs of any 'cities' of dwellings or of ANY 'cultivation' or 'farming' of the land beyond the burning off of areas of land before they moved on to follow seasonal changes in the availability of various food sources. What's more, I have NEVER heard any aboriginals even speak of any of the things that Pascoe claims were part of their history. Not ONCE. Not EVER. Just my 0.02. You all have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

Don't forget the Cannibalism of Far North Queensland tribes due to the fact that they were/are hunter-gatherers, who do not grow crops or domesticate livestock and thus were often starving and fighting other local tribes for their food and were certainly lacking in protein sources. Of course numerous types of cannibalism has been practiced in many parts of this country - including tribal rights for parents, who were allowed to eat the remains of their deceased children!

@@andrewholliday251 they don’t really disagree but they do point out that he exaggerates examples to make a point. For example he shares an account of a European claiming to have seen a village but leaves out the part where this village showed no signs of human activity and was clearly made as a resting place for migrating groups. He exaggerates in his book and he even exaggerates here, he claims there was such an abundance of food that all of Australia had a surplus, this isn’t true. There is no such evidence for such a thing and their population size completely contradicts this claim. If they had such an abundance of food they wouldn’t have reached a population cap from not having enough food. There population size fits perfectly with proto farmers as expected. He also seems to exaggerate the extent to which the was done and exactly how it was done. Fields where not sown and plants weren’t tended to in a traditional fashion. Instead seeds where scattered in areas and the plants where left open and unattended to away from human occupation. Entire fire seat and grass lands where burned extensively to provide nutrients to these wild plants and for hunting. He exaggerates his claims to such an extent that he makes it out as if the aborigines had a civilization and by all accounts and studies they had no such thing. You cannot find anything on this 70,000 year old village he mentions nor can you find anything on actual villages during the colonial era. He claims they made bread first just because they had grindstone something which isn’t certain nor does it make since because grindstone dateing around the exact same time have been found in Europe. These are the claims they disagree with not the conclusion of aborigines being proto farmers. They don’t disagree with him though on his conclusion just that he exaggerates to an extent and doesn’t source his material well. The aborigines where early farmers or proto farmers (well atleast some of them) much like the natufians in west Asia around 12,000 b.c. They weren’t simple hunter gatherers who built nothing and didn’t shape the land. Some groups where well on there way to traditional farming and then villages, towns, cities and empires.

His argument is interesting, and merits independent study. Colin Seis argues that the original carbon content of Australian soils was high- they were fertil...They were degraded by European farmers and the plow.

There's reports from farmers in NSW in 1871 of something they'd never seen before - a dust storm. The local tribal groups had no history of such things either. Less than 30 years earlier the first European farmers settled in what they thought was very rich farmland. In less than a generation they'd destroyed it. Chase up The Biggest Estate on Earth by Bill Gammage, it will completely change your understanding of Australia, its landscape and its shaping and management by First Australians.

80,000 + years of continued sustainable, nurturant culture, during which at least 1 billion persons were born, lived, loved, lost and died.. good lives, biologically healthy lives, lives mostly egalitarian in dynamic. 250 language groups and little in the way of organised multi-generational war-fare. People acknowledged tensions and conflict resolution was the typical response. They survived two massive climate changesm without losing their genetic diversity... These people know how to live here, with all that is, and they know how to live lives full of love, abundance,m effort, laughter, poignancy... they know more about being truly biologically healthy as human species than the colonisers do.

I am not trying to call you a liar or diminish anything the aboriginals did but the whole 80,000 years ago thing makes no sense to me. I mean 80,000 years ago Neanderthals and denisovans were still living. That would make it the oldest civilization to ever exist wouldn’t it? I feel like in a location such as tropical Australia agricultural would of been practical and a probable way of life so I am not debating that it was practiced to some extent. But if you compare the aboriginal Australians to say native Americans in Mexico or Aryans in ancient India which are other cultures that developed independently they have evidence of large scale civilizations and functioning economies. I mean if you claim they are that old how in all of that time did they not build something of significance. I can’t personally think of an ancient people and culture living in rainforests not to build some type of stone buildings. I guess you could point out specific areas in South America and elsewhere but I am talking on large scale. I think Australian Aboriginals are very similar to native Americans that were found in the eastern US. Both practiced agriculture but native Americans there did not build massive cities or towns which could be very similar to the aboriginal in Australia.

It is a lie

Austalia Aboriginal People were a mix of hunter/ gatherer war-like tribes that lived fairly nomadic lifestyles based on seasonal food sources. It was a hard life being an attractive Aboriginal Female as they were highly valued and traded as commodities across tribes. Rather than being at one with the environment, there is some evidence to suggest Aboriginal fires ravaged the interior of Australia and turned what was once fertile land into the inhospitable desert it is today. Some suggest that Aboriginal people didn't even learn how to make fire but instead harnessed wildfire from lightning strikes etc. They didn't invent the wheel or even learn how to smelt the iron. Today there is a huge industry driven by the far left whose goal is to keep Aboriginal people in a perpetual state of victimhood. Money from the Govt which is supposed to filter down to Aboriginal people instead gets sponged up by corrupt Traditional Owners and various other "Stakeholders" which often comprise of low level white public servants in roles that are completely useless and serve no practical purpose. Aboriginal communities are hotspots for child abuse and domestic violence. At night in Darwin and Alice Springs gangs of Aboriginal youths roam the streets committing property crime, while hard working Territorians prop up the failing economy. There is zero evidence that Aboriginal people ever conducted Agriculture and Bruce Pasoce has been proven to be a complete fake and the contents of his book fictional. The fact that the ABC and other state funded organisations have given this fraudster a platform to spout his rubbish is indicative as to what is wrong with Australia.
