Banjo..Abl pple..dont have to list activity by activity to give an overveiw of their culture..that is laborious and unnecessary and if their experience can be related in essence to all Indigenous cultures the same would also be true of the european cultures ie..their 'mother statement' would be the same.

So I still say what is your point and I stll say I did it quite succinctly in under 50 words.

And so did I rachel...although Id like to know exactly what your on about..

Why do i bother?
For at least the 3rd time in this topic...

For the purpose of this piece, I consider the dictionary definition (below) completely appropriate.

cul·ture ( P ) Pronunciation Key (klchr)
n.
a. The totality of socially transmitted behavior patterns, arts, beliefs, institutions, and all other products of human work and thought.
b. These patterns, traits, and products considered as the expression of a particular period, class, community, or population: Edwardian culture; Japanese culture; the culture of poverty.
c. These patterns, traits, and products considered with respect to a particular category, such as a field, subject, or mode of expression: religious culture in the Middle Ages; musical culture; oral culture.
d. The predominating attitudes and behavior that characterize the functioning of a group or organization.

Australian culture then would be those aspects and characteristics that have developed on the Australian continent and those in a form readily distinguishable from other National cultures. It would also therefore be the dominant culture of Australia and also be recognised in various "Australian" stereotypes.

Now feel free to make your list of 50 words or less that cover all the aspects of culture mentioned in the definition. ROTFLMAO.

tauris29,
Have another look at your posts of a few days ago. You did propose a 50 or less word definition of our culture. You used the word "define".

Now you give us a definition,in 50 words, of Australian aboriginal culture using only the matters you put in your "motherhod" statement I mentioned before. Oh, and tell us if it relates to modern day people or those of a past era. If you can do that adequately, your a better man than me, Gun-ga-din.

T800.. that makes no sense and reads as a nonsense..

Now please try again..

At least my definition..in 50 words or less made sense..'mother statement' or not.

Get a better dictionary.

ROTFLMAO..ditto.

Well taurus, if you fail to accept dictionary definitions as being the real meaning of words what is the point of anyone trying to argue factually with you?

You cannot live in denial and reality at the same time.

I wait your attempt or anyone elses to actually give exmples of the Australian culture as per the definition. I however won't be limiting them to the ridiculous limit of 50 words or less. Something that the definition certainly shows is not a realistic possibility.
