No. Brits just included 'Politics' into the stew. Other Races and Cultures will offer their 'gifts'. Whites only know how to do Politics. Take the USA - a Virus hits and they still just do Politics because that all they do.

No offence, but the 'future' of Australia is NOT western Politics. It's ART. Wink

"Bitter harvest is a comprehensive appraisal of Bruce Pascoe's book Dark emu. Pascoe postulates that, rather than being a nomadic hunter-gatherer society, Australian Aborigines were actually sedentary agriculturalists with 'skills superior to those of the white colonisers who took their land and despoiled it'. Dark emu has enjoyed extraordinary public and critical acclaim, winning Premier's literary awards in New South Wales and Victoria. Professor Marcia Langton called it 'the most important book on Australia'. Its ideas have already been taken up in school texts.

But nothing in Dark emu justifies its success. Bitter harvest is a forensic but highly readable examination which reveals that Bruce Pascoe omits, distorts or mischaracterises important information to such an extent that, as purported history, Dark emu is worthless. Even worse, it promotes a divisive, victim-based agenda that pits one Australian against another. In short, it is a shameful, politically-biased work of fiction"

The true indigenous peoples of the British isles were basically hunted down and genocided. All males were killed by the incoming 'mainlanders' and only a few handfuls of females were kept as concubines.
Genetic mapping shows the indigenous population still exists but like 1% or less but not as a separate identity.
The Neanderthals 'before' the Indigenous Sapiens still existed - barely until no more and their genetic footprint is more extensive in today's population ironically.

Today though, Archeologists dig around to 'understand' the British past because it gives a sense of 'identity' and 'history' to what it means to be British.

After the 'indigies' were wiped out and diluted by the Britons - they too were compromised by the incoming Anglos and Saxons. But recent discoveries showed that the Briton - Anglo/Saxon interaction was a 'peaceful' one and no battles, killings, genocides occurred and they have THOUSANDS of examples to prove this. It was just a gradual incursion with the Britons basically receeding to the mostly North of England, Wales and the Lands End region of the South West of England.
Then the Romans came and that too was peaceful for about 500 years until the Romans decided to put the Britons, Anglos and Saxons to work for 'tax' and then things just got ugly and wars began.

So basically the Neanderthal faded away and the Indigenous Sapiens were wiped out by the Britons.

...but for some reason, the historical traces of these two are considered 'valuable' - even if they didn't live in cosmopolitan cities or build pyramids.

So called 'Civilisation' only really kicked away in the last 10,000 years at the very most. Really just the last 6000 years. Somehow, Aboriginals had Didgeridoos from 6000 years ago (very recent innovation) and as we are slowly discovering from the ashes of colonial destruction, that there is a lot more to 'our' Australian history.

Cities today though - are where the Primitive People live. Wink

Just look at Sydney and Melbourne. Tongue

There is no cause to fight.. therefore no cause to be lost... Cool

There are two bad reasons to go to war - over a woman or over a matter of principle... until the proof positive is in properly and fully, there is nothing to discuss about Pascoe's hypotheses... not least of which is assertion of Aboriginality based on discussion with an uncle long ago... maybe BPD runs in the family... maybe the uncle was wrong... maybe he was joking .. maybe he made it up....

Not enough to base a claim of heritage on.....

I identify as an Eskimo whale hunter environmental activist, and of course, as a woman.... does that make it so? My Chinese lady would be most disappointed... and she wants to live with me when her studies are finished.

Happens all the time - the Gaels invaded Ireland and 'assimilated' the originals, then a second wave of Gaels arrived and 'assimilated' the first lot - who became 'The Little People.

Very True.
But I'm just highlighting the value of being able to remember the past of a country (regardless of who peopled at various times) via archaeological evidence be it something grand like a ruin unearthed or just paintings on a cave wall.
It's all about us 'humans' as a whole - having existed.
And remembering where us Humans as a whole have come from so we may know where we are heading.
