Reply to comment by Drakotrite in Native title granted to South Australian Wirangu people recognises it 'always will be Aboriginal land' by DaRedGuy

It is 80,000 years ago

And no, they aren't a single nation, that's why each group has claim to their specific land, not any more nor less.

And, the Aboriginal Australian version of possession of land is different than the European version, the land is not "owned" but rather it is tied to a people through religion, culture, hunting, etc.

Please learn something about Australia before making ridiculous comments

Did you actually look at the source you listed? The very next article explains why 80,000 years is wrong.

>but rather it is tied to a people through religion, culture, hunting, etc.

That's quite literally how every nation works. It's not some unique thing. Every nation has religious, cultural and resource tied to its land. Trying to claim this is an aboriginal idea is both racist, see the noble savage trope, and ignorant of European history and development.
