Aboriginal Australian Sacred Sites

This group gathers sacred sites of Aboriginal Australian traditions, places bound to the Dreaming, the ancestral order in which creator beings shaped the land and left their presence in its features. Such sites are living parts of ongoing tradition and law, and many are subject to cultural restrictions.

The browser will find the sites the atlas gathers. The entries describe each place's significance with respect for the traditions that hold it, noting that Aboriginal sacred knowledge is often restricted and that these are the sites of continuing, living cultures.
