Many people and even highly
sophisticated societies in ancient times had no written language. Does this
mean that they were not concerned about their history or had no way to remember
or save? Some of them were through songs, dances, poems and stories, and
through art. There are two types of history to remember the story of the tribe,
and family history of an individual.
In pre-European period in the individual Aboriginal
people of Australia recorded its history in an interesting and practical way.
They wore possum skins as clothes, obviously, they were hot and plentiful. The
first European settlers (or invaders in Aboriginal terminology) were very
impressed with these layers as they were covered in art. This art was so
beautiful that even the Europeans were impressed with him. Instead of being
merely decorative, as perhaps the Europeans thought, this art to another
purpose altogether. The human history has been recording on these jackets. This
art was a kind of language that people who were familiar culture could read.
This practice explains why some of these beautiful and interesting possum
cloaks survived. Aboriginal modern day have kept the side of this custom art
live. Tattoos have always been a story mode on both an individual and a family
was preserved. Polynesian tribes in Papua New Guinea have used this method.
Some older women are tattooed from head to toe. For those who can (or more
correctly could, as this knowledge has disappeared almost) read, he said that
the tribe, clan, etc. the woman and her husband belonged. He also talked about
hunting exploits her husband and detailed stories of his life and the important
achievements of the ancestors. As an art form, even a small revareva decree.
Some modern women Papua still has a few tattoos. Mother A friend had a
reasonable amount of revareva in your body. My friend had the revareva symbol
for the tribe of his mother registered in both their engagement rings and
wedding.
Australian aborigines painted their bodies for special occasions, especially for corroberies. These paintings have meaning and some relate to the story. These are learned by memory and pasted across generations. Some of these body paintings are now registered in acrylic painting on canvas by indigenous modern artists. symbols of art were also made in the sand and used to teach the younger members of the tribe of important memories and stories of ancient times who had to be registered. Cave Art, of course, has always played an important role in Aboriginal life. Cave paintings are almost a story in its own right. This type of art was never completely stopped, and a little history is recorded in this way, even in recent times.
In the 20th and 21st centuries Aboriginal art spoke of history, our people have never imagined. Modern scientific methods have shown how old some of the paintings reveal how long our people occupied Australia and we had our own culture, laws and civilization. This has helped to change the perception of history. The European settlement of Australia is now seen in a different light, and the school's history now includes an Aboriginal perspective. The popularity of Aboriginal art worldwide has helped to give all Australians, indigenous and non-indigenous pride in Aboriginal culture. Much of the modern Aboriginal art, records symbols in many of our old stories, helping to preserve them for future generations. Thus, the current in Australia, and probably in other parts of the world, the art still plays an important role in recording and even to the history of Aboriginal peoples.
