Funny how people say how Indigenous Australian people where not advanced, they had a complete full circle way of life with no intention to build permanent structures as they had no need to as it would eventually lead to massive land clearing and damage to the land as you see today...why would you want to be pinned down to one place anyway when you have a whole beautiful healthy landscape they called home to travel. They left painting, fire pits, tools and shell middens at the last place they stayed so that when other families or tribes may pass through they knew they could find food and shelter ect. They survived for 40000-60000 years without damaging the land and life forms within it, they had a way of maintaining perfect balance with the land whether this be by doing burn offs so plants could grow back stronger and more replenished, they only hunted what they would eat so nothing was slaughtered to extinction for trophies, didn’t pollute oceans and land and was way of life to take care of the land. took settlers 200 years to do more damage then Indigenous Australians ever did. Must I add that a lot of diseases we’re brought over by sick convicts and explorers ect. There Language was very diverse and way of handing down information through painting, dance, verbally telling stories and hands on teaching was why there stories have lasted this long. Also we believed that we never owned the land we call Australia but we belong to the land itself, we are here to take care of the land and ocean to treat it with nurture, love and respect so the land can continue to supply us with food, life, air, beauty and everything else we have around us. Full Circle.

I once met an Aboriginal elder, the information he gave me, and what he described with his encounters was fascinating. Ive never met anyone like him, he had white hair, but very dark skin, at first he spoke with an accent, then his voice changed, and he was very articulate, and well spoken. He told me information about modern aircraft, and then started talking about technology we don't yet have.

That Grey Alien just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich.

[youngbuddha]

The actual footage at the beginning looks like it's edited on paint🤣🤣🤣

[shadowweaver]

Aboriginal people are to me the most amazing people on earth and deserve every bit of our love, awe, protection and respect. I wish my stupid ancestors never came here. It was the last natural haven on earth and we destroyed it. I'd LOVE to go back in time and just find out exactly all the amazing things the Aboriginal people witnessed

Wycliffe Well, in the Northern Territory is a hot spot for UFO sightings. My family from there (Traditional mob) have told many stories about aliens, describing them as tall people.

There is a primary school near where I grew up, which had a big Aboriginal mural of the side of one of the walls. The representation of this mural clearly involved alian like figures, as well as references to flying saucers. I don’t where the mural came from, and wish I had a photo, as its creepy af. Was home for Christmas and noticed they had gotten rid of it

[jasonmeaty]

Even the native American Indian knew of something extra special in the sky there depiction of what is known as sky gods are scattered around America from the grand canyon to Colorado there's no denying it

[posumagic]

[realbruhlizard]

I have crippling depression
Ancient Alien Astronaut Theorist says yes

[keralacitizen]

That rock art is similar to the One in edakkal caves, Kerala, India. Aboriginal, adivasi, forest dwelling ppl across continents have lots in common

[edinamasontipungwuti.]

I live there in the NT we surrounded by rock art painting everywhere all over Australia

[vk]

The wisdom keepers talk of sky people star people and water people. They painted them in their caves. They were entrusted with the knowledge forever protecting the stories. Passing them down the generations. I am honoured that I descend from this beautiful ancient culture. I asked my elders where we came from. They always tell me that we were always here.

[timothylynch]

The Mayans were the stewards of Time, the Australian Aborigines are the stewards of Wisdom.

[gabrielegaven]

The Aboriginals are the cradle of humanity. First human being as we know - giving birth - to mankind! I am honoured to live here at this time.

[artnerd]

As an Australian I can’t confirm or deny that we are aliens

I’ve actually got a piece of the oldest rock on earth. I was a diamond driller in the outback of Australia for 25 years and I drilled this chert that was the hardest rock I’ve ever come across. It was 1.6 kilometres deep and the geologist said it came back 4.6 billion years old. The oldest was in Canada until I drilled that hole. We normally get 50 metres in a 12 hour shift, it took 2 times 12 hours shifts to drill half a metre of this stuff. We would pull the rods and change the bit but the diamonds would polish up in 10 minutes so keep pulling 1.6 kilometres of steel rods out of the ground, continuously from that depth all day and night. Anyway the Geo gave me an 8 inch long by 2.5 inches in diameter. He said it was the oldest rock by 2 or 300 million years. Beautiful piece, like red glass, black glass and white glass, opaque in swirls beautiful this is why can’t be drilled properly as the rock is like glass with less grain than glass. You can’t get down that deep unless there was a viable mine, maybe but who knows. We worked for a Finish mining company. We were 250 kilometres inland from Port Hedland through Marble Bar. Utulumpu or similar name. This was a place called Sulphur Springs because there was a very mini Volcano that was only 10 foot high and yellow pungent smelling Sulphur continuously leaked from this rock. I got on top of it so I can add, climbing an active volcano on my resume haha

It has been a few years since I was able to catch full episodes of Ancient Aliens, so I am very pleased to see that finally, Australia and her original peoples and culture are getting a solid mention into these topics, while I am not saying it's all Aliens not of this earth, it is only through knowing and understanding what has been left for us to know that we can find the answers that elude us.
I have always known there would be knowledge of interest hidden in this vast land that is my home. I have grown tired of hearing about the Egyptians and Atlantis, not because it is not interesting but because it is told over and over and over again.
but cultures such as the Indigenous Australians have so much to share with the world, should they want to share it, and it is more ancient than the Sumerians.
so thank you for this.

[wadesharp]

I enjoyed this. Cheers mate fair dinkum

Not only did the original Australian people but Egyptians also used the Boomerang also at Moyjil a Victorian site at Port Ritchie, Warrnambool, provides a 120, 000-year rethink on Australian history.
