PAWS - Parks and Wildlife Supporter News
Aboriginal Cultural Heritage
 When you visit your favourite national park, you enjoy its breathtaking landscapes, the perfume of the native
plants and the sounds and glimpses of birds and other native animals.
But there is more to discover in your park than meets the eye.
Rock engravings or hand stencils are traces of an ancient, mystical culture, the oldest culture on Earth.
A river gorge is the track of the Rainbow Serpent that shaped the Earth during the Dreaming, and that little
bird on the track has seen the creation of the sun and the sea millennia of years ago.
Discover some of these ancient legends and the magic of the oldest continuous culture on Earth in this
issue of PAWS, the newsletter for Parks And Wildlife Supporters.
See your Australia with different eyes.
