you are on indian land ,down under.

The European myth of Discovery has always made me suspicious of its purpose.  Australia was never Terra Nullis- a land not owned by anyone.   Even we Indians were there, having reached  4000 years before the White Man  made his 'discovery'.

The photographs are form a  project I am working on.  A Dreamtime Story which shows that Australia was the original Land Of Shiva. Australia and  India were then then part of the super continent called Gondwanaland.

Indian people may have arrived on Australian shores about 4000 years before Europeans colonised the continent, scientists report.

Modern humans are thought to have arrived down under about 40,000 years ago, having made their way out of Africa around the coast of the Arabian Peninsula and India to Australia.
Most scientists believed these ancestors of modern Aborigines remained isolated from other populations until Europeans appeared in the late 18th century.
But a genetic analysis of more than 300 Aborigines, Indians and people from Papua New Guinea and islands of south-east Asia has found a "significant gene flow" from India to Australia about 4230 years, or 141 generations, ago.




"[There was] a sudden change in plant processing and stone tool technologies, with microliths appearing for the first time, and the first appearance of the dingo in the fossil record," said Dr Pugach.

"Since we detect inflow of genes from India into Australia at around the same time, it is likely that these changes were related to this migration," she said.

The researchers said it was possible Indian ancestry came to Australia indirectly, through south-east Asian populations who had trade links with northern Australia and Indonesia.
But the analysis found no evidence of this scenario in the genes of the south-east Asian populations.
