    I studied the Bradshaws when at uni in the 90’s. They are completely distinct from all other forms of art in the land, so culturally different, it is clear to see these people are lost to time to perhaps an ancient natural disaster. Humans have come and gone from these lands forever, like every other across the planet, they come and they go forever.

    No incorrect. There are several stages which are all completely different in style. The reason they are different is because art changes in quick succession, compare Rembrandt to Picasso. Furthermore genetic science completely rules out a "mystery tribe" and so does all physical evidence.

    ⁠@@redsword1659 okay, what about the World’s Oldest Continuous Culture, then? I am not sure that you can compare conscious changes in Western art, which is generally ego driven, with folk-type ceremonial culture represented by the rock paintings. That does not change rapidly or on a whim, like your examples. Also, genetic studies would only show something if the populations interbred and we actually knew which sequences to look for. Don’t forget 20 years ago the received wisdom was that humans were completely descended from people who left Africa relatively late. Then we finally decoded H. neanderthalis. Then, lo and behold, everyone who is not a sub-Saharan, has some Neanderthal genetics, plus Denisovans and other unknown Homo species.

    The 'Welcome to Country' Ceremony was invented in 1976 by Ernie Dingo and Richard Walley to welcome Maori performers. There is no Aboriginal word for a 'Welcome To Country' like the Maori's Haka. How can it be an 'ancient Ceremony' if there is no word for it. How could someone say "Who's going to perform the Welcome to Country ceremony"? The 'Acknowledgement of Country' was invented in the 1990s. The 'Smoking' Ceremony is, also, a recent invention. There is NO film or video evidence of any of these ceremonies at important events such as royal tours, the 1956 Olympics, etc, prior to the 1970s and 1990s.

    The Bush Tucker Man, series 2 episode 3. Les Hiddins comes across some Bradshaw Rock Art in the Kimberly and arrives at the same conclusions as Grahame Walsh. He also states some locals disown the art and have been known to paint over them. Wouldn't be the first time people have tried to erase the past to ensure a current narrative is not challenged. Les also states that wherever you find this style of art Africa, Madagascar, India, you also find Boab trees and that the African and Aboriginal legend of the tree are the same, the tree got to big for its own good so the spirits pulled it out of the ground and planted it upside down. The Boab or Baobab has only existed in Australia for about 70,000 years, Hmmm.

    Of course he is right at least in the position there were people in Australia before the early ancestors of aborigines as we know them. It is ridiculous in every way to even suggest that a group of people arrived 60,000 years ago and that everyone thereafter up to the point of colonisation were direct descendants of that first group. Clearly the occupation of Australia occurred in waves, and frankly, probably several waves, with the aborigines as they were in 1788, being representative of the last wave, not the first. He is also right about the politics - it is inconvenient to say the least, for it to be accepted the aborigines were just one of the groups who settled this continent, not the first and only before colonisation.

    I agree....there could well have been several migrations of humans into Australia. Science has evidence that dingoes arrived app. 5000 ya and this suggests that humans brought them. This suggests that therefore there could have been several movements of people into Australia. I'd imagine that over time the people inhabiting SE Asia and New Guinea may have been aware of the existence of a large land mass to their south. However, to get there required water craft suitable for open waters. There appears to be no evidence, other than ancient rock art, of the existence of any such suitable water craft associated with aborginals since any form of reliable documentation has been available.

So if people living on Islands in the vastness of the Pacific can sail around the oceans,why couldn't they have arrived in Australia at one point? .And it's also believed that there were people already living in New Zealand before the arrival of those canoes.

    That is fascinating that you can trace your lineage back to the 15th century and your ancestors from Tahiti, I saw a speech being given from a Maori woman on television at one of the conferences that is held yearly? between Samoa Fiji and New Zealand, if I remember correctly, the lady was talking about the huge ships crewed by islanders bigger than the European ships sailing through the waters past them, that apparently were painted and recorded in journals by white European botanists on exploration vessels and that this has been hidden away in the archives of places such as the natural history museum in London. Evidently this was done to support the European narrative at the time that Aboriginal and islander peoples were technically unsophisticated savages, which seems ludicrous yet is till widely supported amongst people to this day. I would love to try and find some of the Botanists paintings that record this if it is indeed true.

    Contemporary anthropology is watching its guillty arse. A Royal Commission with wide terms of reference would result in hundreds of anthropologists having their degrees expunged and many doing serious prison time. This was established more than 30 years ago by European investigators on a three month expedition in Australia. The NLC's creation by the Rothschilds will explain its role over the years, especially its behaviour since 2020.

At the same time, the geography of the entire area was being formed, largely by earthquakes and volcanic action, as such it was then 28:29 possible to walk down through west Malaysia, into Borneo, down through Sumatra and then on to Java and east Indonesia. As tribes were formed, and settlements established, people travelled far and wide across land and sea, in many areas evidence of their travels as lost due to the rapid regrowth of the jungle, and the seasonal monsoon rains. It is therefore difficult to know when different land masses were occupied, and for how long.

In many of these people little has changed regarding their looks, and if one obtains head and shoulder photos of the different tribes now settled in the region of S.E. Asia one can see both close associations, and prominent features, of many of these tribes which have remained constant over the years. This together with their current location can go a long way to identifying where these peoples have lived and travelled, together with their different languages, and beliefs.

The current population is descended from the first inhabitants of Australia and not only that, at that time and for thousands of years after there were no other modern humans in Melanesia or anywhere in the region.

    If you look at facial bone strructure types across Australia, definite patterns emerge. For example Anandilyagwa are unique, as are Tiwi. Yolngu have much in common with the tribes around Wadeye, while Maung and all clans in the centre of the Top End have a lot in common with Centre tribes. NSW types, too, are unique to that region. This suggests several waves of immigration, presumably during the latter Ice Age. Meanwhile, it is also known that a negrito pygmy people preceded Aborigines here, these being wiped out by the new arrivals. Remants were recorded in Tasmania and the Atherton Rainforest. American Anthropologists measured and photographed these in the 1880s. Australian anthropologists have gone to absurd lengths to hide these aspects of history and, in fact, the existence of the entire race. In 1992, a team of Austrian anthropologists (Europe) investigated local anthropologists and recommend that most have their degrees expunged and others face criminal prosecution for fraud. One thing is clear, on theft of funds, royalties and lands, there needs to be Royal Commission of Inquiry. This will inevitably reveal even greater crimes that place Australia's northern populations at serious security risk.

    Firstly, truth. Precious little of history is the truth, which is why I wrote a book about fifty years of Top End history (The Lost Track"). As a wise man once said: "Ignore history and be doomed forever to repeat it." Secondly, I oppose corruption. All major Aboriginal organisations in the NT are hopelessly corrupt, especially the NLC and Gumatj Corporation. A Royal Commission with broad terms of reference will expose this to all Australians, who can then decide how to replace these with organisations of integrity. In my opinion, if this does not happen within two years, the causes of Aboriginal premature death and cultural breakdown will be beyond remedy.

The same thing happened in New Zealand where it is claimed when the Maori arrived there a mere 800 years ago there was already a race of people there. They to were a pygmy people and the Maori's wiped them all out. I think there is definitely some missing info in both Oz and NZ, I remember the early Bush Tucker Man and Malcolm Douglas clips and in particular Malcolm Douglas, where he went out with the local aboriginals where the Bradshaws were on their land and those aboriginals called the Bradshaws "rubbish paintings, they have nothing to do with us"

The tail was in solid black with heavy line around the body with the interior of the body blank. It occurs to me that this blank interior was originally a coloured pigment that does not survive the way the typical Bradshaw black does.

    The Queensland Government rounded up the remnants in the Atherton Rainforest and ordered the Cape York Aborigines to "breed them out". I have seen photos taken next to measured Europeans of 1880 and it seems they were indeed pygmies. There is a definite conspiracy in anthropology and archaeology to keep the history suppressed. The same happened over three previous races in NZ.

    There are still wild Pygmies in & around the Paluma area in Nth. Queensland. A good few years ago an old lady went missing in the Paluma Ranges. A black Tracker was hired to find her When they got to her abandoned car the Blacktracker got out, had a look around the car then suddenly raced back to the police car, got in & locked the door. His face was white & he was shaking. All he could say was that the little people had taken her away. It was some time in the 80's@@adrienneclarke3953

I wondered at the time if this is where Aussie blackfella originally came from. If yes, perhaps these blackfellas, when they came to Australia, were the dominating culture over these Bradshaw painters and the Bradshaw painters died out or were wiped out.

PM John Howard and Ernie Dingo together developed the smoking ceremony, the welcome to country to be used at all future events, it was thought up and invented by Ernie Dingo, and it has NO historic symbolism, just that PM Howard said that the aboriginal culture was boring at best and be wanted something special to show the world.....

What about about the fact the Aboriginal artists of the Gwion Gwion paintings were displaced by this drought and after the land was habitable again the Wandjina artists moved in? I'm guessing the research paper released by the University of Wollongong would destroy the entire bs "aura" you've created and financially benefited from, wouldn't it? Unfortunately that truth doesn't make you money does it? Prefer to perpetuate the pygmy lie to keep the money rolling in while lying about my people and appropriating my culture to line your pockets.

But i can tell you that the Papuans and Australian Aborigines have a common ancestry as Austronesians on Sahul when Papua and Australia were one land mass up until 8,000 years ago.

    The recent (2022) genome work from Denmark, on a donated hair strand (collected in 1920 from the Kalgoorlie region), dates the arrival of the Aboriginal Australian at 60-70 thousand years before present. This however does not disprove Walsh's beliefs. As the Kimberley region hosts 99% of the Bradshaw paintings it could still be that a different race occupied that region for a certain period of Australian human history. My own interpretation is that the figures in the paintings look so similar to the figures of humans from the African continent. Is it possible that before the sea levels rose a wave of Africans found it easy to cross into Australia and established themselves in the Kimberley and co-existed with Australian Aboriginals. If you look at the curve of the legs and the ample bellies, the armbands, the grass skirts, all very African. Additionally you have the baobab tree in the Kimberley - could an African enclave in the Kimberley have transported and planted the seeds of this tree? What then causes them to disappear and why there is no archaeological evidence of their existence are more challenging questions to answer.

    Thats early African style art. If they found it in Africa, they would simply say, "Oh, cool find!" But because it was found in Australia, it's a problem. Modern Humans have been here 230,000 years. It is naive to think humans simply sat around throwing sticks and rocks at rabbits for all of it until about 12 thousand years ago. Humans are curious. The need to know what is beyond the next hill is still in us. Exploration and the need to worship is much older than scientists give credit. It has been in humans as far back as we can currently detect or interpret. Cave drawings in Europe with odd markings near each animal were found decades ago. No scientist could figure out what the dots and dashes were. Then someone realized the marks were gestation periods of the individual animal represented in the art. These people were not as simple as we believed. Politics always gets in the way of science research. Don't dwell on it. I'm sure the early explorers and the rock artists had the same problem.
