‘Original archaeologists’: Arnhem Land traditional owners take charge of priceless rock art

Summary by Ground News
Bininj traditional owners from western Arnhem Land say they are the ‘original archaeologists’ of their country. The region’s Kombolgie sandstone has been carved by a cycle of wet and dry seasons over millennia and is one of the world's most remote and inaccessible regions. It is estimated there are three or four art sites for every 10 sq km of rocky terrain, potentially more than 40,000 sites.
