Nth American Indians have been riding horses for over 500 years after Spaniard Hernan Cortes introduced the modern horse back onto the continental mainland in 1519. Columbus had bought them to the Caribbean/West Indies earlier in 1493.

Have you been to this 'festival'?

Has anyone?

Well it's a little bit more genuine than all the white pretend Aboriginal sports people in the NRL & AFL making out they have any idea of how to do it.

Traditionalism is based on pre-white in its purity
Otherwise a Holden without doors in the outback can be labelled traditional abo culture along with VB middens
