The word Aboriginal is an English word meaning the people living in a country from the earliest times. Non-Aboriginal people who arrived in Australia over 200 years ago, used this word to describe the original people they found living in Australia. It is believed that the first Aborigines travelled to Australia from SE Asia in canoes at least 40,000 years ago occupying all of Australia, adapting incredibly to the harshness of the desert surviving as hunters and observers, developing unique beliefs about creation.
