Aboriginal Rock Paintings Kakadu National Park, NT Australia

Kakadu is the world's third largest park. [Canada has the largest.] Kakadu represents Australia's only World Heritage site. The park earns this listing due to its unique flora, fauna and geology and because of the abundant Aboriginal cultural sites left by a civilization that flourished here for 50,000 years before the neighbourhood took a turn for the worse.

The age of rock art can only be estimated. The subject of the art gives the best clue to its age when it can be matched with known enviornmental or historical events. Look for the paintings of a long necked turtle and some fish. These and other freshwater animals became common in the area during the development of the floodplains about 2,000 years ago. So it is assumed that these paintings are less than 2,000 years old.
