The Early Ruse of the Aborigines BY: VERONICA FIGUEROA
Through the years as civilizations were brought up, the rise of new technologies and intellectual development arose slowly and surely. However, some cultures are forced to rise above the rest and therefore develop in a hurried manor. The Aborigines were an upcoming civilization that had many advances during their foundation to the early seventh century that comtributed to domesticated animals and innovations in hunting and the arts.
The domestication of the dingo in around 4000 B.C.E. was a major contributer in the development of the Aboriginal society. The main advantage of the dingoes was that it was a food suply. With such an abundant food suply the population began to grow and expand. It was largely abundant and was enough to feed all the people on the island of Australia. Also, with constant hunting, the society developed more skill and new technologies.
With the early invention of stone tools, their civilization was developing intellectually. The time that the Australian natives began to invent these small stone tools was around the same time the dingo becme domesticated. This could explain exactly what these tools were used for, capturing and hunting the dingo. With these tools, it aided in the development of their skills towards becoming a successful hunter gatherer society. The Aborigines were also very intelligent creating these hunting tools so quickly when the dingoes came into their land.
Advances in art were soon developed by the Aborigines. It all began a few thousand years after they had arrived, in about 10000 B.C.E., when the Aborigines began to create art. They began with humanlike figures used in Australian rock art. The drawings showed images of themselves hunting, and was used to teach their young to learn their hunting techniques. Later on skills in pottery were developed. This was important for them because it was a use of store when they began to hunt and gather. This once again added on to their efficiency with another skill to spread their culture.
As a rising civilization, the Aborigines settled into Australia and rapidly expanded in size and intellectually. Though they were the sole society on this island, they managed to still develop stone tools and various forms of culrutal art. In part, their hunting skills can be contributed to the domestication of the dingo, who aided in much of the expanision and new technologies of the Aborigines. The culture still continues to grow after this period at an excellent rate.
