500 |a This book describes ancient journeys undertaken by Aboriginal people in Western Australia. The journeys were identified when findings from several research projects came together. Using these findings the authors developed a timeline of the information of Nyoongar and Kimberley land using traditional Dreaming stories, geology and climate history. Some of this work can be found in the book Nyoongar boodja - Koomba Bardip Kooratan (Nyoongar land - long story short (Robertson et. al 2016) and the film Walking together, belonging to country (Stasiuk et. al, 2016).
