The root of this word is ab origine, which means 'the beginning' (reside in one place since time immemorial), and came from Latin. The natives of Australia settled a continent at least 30,000 years. According to the opinions of scientists on the continent have settled in the time of the last ice age. Then the big islands of New Guinea and Borneo were higher than today, a strait between Australia and the much narrower.Perhaps the connection between Aboriginal and living in harmony with nature is easy to see through their instrument the didgeridoo.

Aborigines believe that the first time the world was unformed mass of nothing, waiting to be shaped into what we know today. Then the divine ancestors came down from heaven in many forms, but usually in the form of a big snake, and began to form a dark landscape. The ancestors began to travel around the world, shaping the landscape and creating a new life wherever he came from.
