So.. aussie was a part of China? Are you talking about Gondwana? If so that's like Africa too right? Interesting to note that the Koori word for the Rainbow Serpent is Gondwala... pretty close eh.
For the record, Maori people have no story of coming from China, our story is long and well documented and recited even today, we came from a place called Hawaiki. (not to be confused with Hawaii)

OK no problem.
I normally do give the right title to Koori, guess i got caught up in a senseless debate.
My apoligies.

Look, all the countries in the world were joined at one stange, australia was part of asia, millions of years ago. So who cares, what culture is older, just listen to the song, stop debating rubbish.

Do you mind not saying 'abo' it's Australian Aboriginie, or just aboriginal.
RE3V3R (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
if ur an aboriginal, then why are u defending the colonial oppressors? These songs have nothing to do with aboriginal culture.
Anyway... the way u talk is like ur on the ice mate, there's no reason to remain stoopid, u can google things u know...

You're 100% wrong about China. You are not only uneducated, also it seems ur resistant to learning. Maori were around longer than 2000 years ago. Abos have always been in Aussie, they never migrated there. That's why the oldest bones in the world are abo bones, found in aussie. It's not ur fault that u don't even know ur own cultures history, i know the white man came and conquered ur ppl and alot was lost. But plz don't try and tell me about MY OWN PPL without first knowing wtf ur talking about

AND IF YOU KNEW YOUR HISTORY YOU ALL CAME FROM MAINLAND CHINA PART OF THE ASIANIC TRIBES..... |
