AUSTRALIAN RECORDS AND FACTS

AUSTRALIAN STYLE INVENTIONS

INTERESTING AUSTRALIAN FACTS

It was illegal to swim on Australian beaches until 1902.
Secret Ballot
The secret ballot was introduced to the world by Henry Chapman of Melbourne in 1855.
Women's Right to Vote
Australia was the second country to give women the right to vote in 1902.
Illegal Opening of Sydney Harbour Bridge

Megafauna. Aboriginals came to Australia about 50 thousand years ago. Anthropologists call Aboriginals gracile. Megafauna like large wombats, rhino, flightless birds, lizards and meat eating kangaroos lived alongside Aboriginals before becoming extint 20-30 thousand years ago. A theory holds that Aboriginals killed off megafauna because megafauna and human bones were found together. Tasmanian Aboriginals had a different origin than mainland Aboriginals. They could not start fire but fought over access to it. Aboriginals 40,000 years ago lived alongside Marree Man, a man-like bearded creature that walked upight.

Australian culture is expressed via art galleries, Australian strine, museums and famous Australians.
