On a photograph in a museum exhibition about Aboriginal art 'X is in this picture'; at the entrance to another such exhibition a text informing people of Aboriginal culture/inheritance that there are images of persons of that grouping since deceased. What is the belief system behind this? [[Special:Contributions/86.153.166.25|86.153.166.25]] ([[User talk:86.153.166.25|talk]]) 21:51, 27 March 2015 (UTC)

==Missing Elements==
I have posted this comment on several pages which describe Aboriginal culture, because my comment is relevant to each of these pages: As a hobby I read extensively on Indigenous cultures around the world - a fascinating subject. I have a large library as a result. This article has huge amounts missing in terms of description of Aboriginal life pre-colonisation, a subject which is of great interest to many people. Books on this from the 1800s to 1900s are abundant and easy to access (Tom Petrie, William Buckley, Douglas Lockwood etc.), and some tribes in Australia still practice culture (Martu people of WA, Yolngu of NT etc.). PDFs of Yolngu law as it has been practiced for 1000s of years has been written down by the elders for the broader public to understand, and is easy to access with a google search. Is there any particular reason for for leaving out large amounts of easy to find facts and information on this subject?[[User:Alabama81bornandbred|Alabama81bornandbred]] ([[User talk:Alabama81bornandbred|talk]]) 10:16, 11 December 2017 (UTC)
 
:I fear I have found this comment some 5+ years too late for you to see a response, but I think you or anyone else who has an extensive database on a topic would be doing a great service to people who are not as informed as you by adding information, yourself. It may be daunting at first, but you or anyone reading this comment who does not have the history of wikipedia-editing should read about how to (and generally what info to add), and add what you see fit. It can be fun and rewarding, and you can know that you are helping others find information. [[User:La rodman|La rodman]] ([[User talk:La rodman|talk]]) 02:40, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
 
I agree there are many aspects of aboriginal culture, pseudo religious practices that can be documented. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/104.238.51.89|104.238.51.89]] ([[User talk:104.238.51.89#top|talk]]) 10:59, 26 April 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
