Yep ...we are all still patiently waiting for the day when the people from world's oldest continuing culture, holding the same legal rights as a rock on a track before 1967, the traditional owners of this land, are at least acknowledged in the Constitution of Australia as part of the development of a treaty and edge closer to true reconciliation.

Yep - we are all still waiting ....

Cave Art Site, Apple Tree Bay, Bobbin Head, Kuringai National Park

Detail of Kangaroo

Detail of Kangaroo, Shields, and boomerangs

Defaced section that once contained stencils
This cave art site is located exactly as William Dugald Campbell described it in 1899. At that time he recorded that people had defaced the paintings but that the charcoal drawings were in tact. In 2020 his description holds fast. Once again, if you didn't know what you are looking for i.e. the charcoal drawings ...you wouldn't find them. Absolutely beautiful and near Apple Tree Bay.
