Accepting History and Creating the Future. 330 $aDark Emu puts forward an argument for a reconsideration of the hunter-gatherer tag for precolonial Aboriginal Australians. The evidence insists that Aboriginal people right across the continent were using domesticated plants, sowing, harvesting, irrigating and storing - behaviours inconsistent with the hunter-gatherer tag. Gerritsen and Gammage in their latest books support this premise but Pascoe takes this further and challenges the hunter-gatherer tag as a convenient lie. Almost all the evidence comes from the records and diaries of the Australian explorers, impeccable sources. 606 $aAboriginal Australians$xAntiquities 606 $aAboriginal Australians$xSocial life and customs 606 $aAboriginal Australians$xAgriculture 606 $aLand use, Rural$zAustralia 606 $aHunting and gathering societies$zAustralia 615 0$aAboriginal Australians$xAntiquities. 615 0$aAboriginal Australians$xSocial life and customs. 615 0$aAboriginal Australians$xAgriculture. 615 0$aLand use, Rural 615 0$aHunting and gathering societies 676 $a305.89915 700 $aPascoe$b Bruce$f1947-$01043340 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792276603321 996 $aDark emu$93820588 997 $aUNINA
