Summary/Abstract: The majority of Australian traditional societies have become extinct. The surviving ones have lost their territories and the traditional lifestyle. Evidence of their culture is generally found in research and popular science literature. It is important to acknowledge the features of Australian traditional culture as they have left an impact on theoretical discussions on the origin of culture, religion, and social institutions.
