The aim of this unit is to explore the main elements of Indigenous cultures past and present. The main emphasis will be on cultural diversity and dynamic cultural change. In linking the past to the present, aspects of traditional culture expressed in modern cultural forms will be examined. Areas to be explored include kinship systems and social structures, traditional roles of men, women and children, religion and spirituality, the dreaming and the law, relationship with the sea and land, caring for the environment, economic life, and the inter-relation of the arts in everyday life.
