| Summary |
With the colonial settlement of Australia came the need for people who were capable of working the land in many different ways. Aboriginal people were the perfect choice - they knew their land well and were hard workers. First Nations people took up roles as stockmen and worked in many different roles. From looking after sheep and cattle, to clearing land and putting up fences, these stockmen helped shape the Australian farmlands we know today. |
