Central Australian Aboriginal traditions were disintegrating rapidly when my father took photographs and cinefilm on a camel expedition from Hermannsburg Mission to Mount Liebig in 1933. This was at the end of the frontier period, when there were still isolated groups of Aborigines yet to experience non-Aboriginal contact. These people were of enormous interest as the remnants of a pre-settlement culture...
If I'm reading this correctly then these finds would be more clincher than discovery of the longevity of aboriginal culture. There could have been any number of threads on the topic.
