Description

‘People would have known about Australia before they saw it. Smoke billowing above the sea spoke of a land that lay beyond the horizon. A dense cloud of migrating birds will have pointed the way in which. However the first Australians were voyaging into the unknown.’

Soon after Billy Griffiths joins his first archaeological dig as camp manager and cook, he’s hooked. Equipped with a historian’s inquiring mind, he embarks on a journey through time, searching for to remember the ordinary deep history of the Australian continent.

Deep Time Dreaming is the passionate product of that journey. It investigates a twin revolution: the reassertion of Aboriginal identity in the second one half of the 20th century, and the uncovering of the traces of ancient Australia. It explores what it means to live in a spot of great antiquity, with its complex questions of ownership
