Boomerangs (throwing weapons) made by Aborigines from eucalyptus wood, still today with the traditional depiction of turtles and kangaroos. The indigenous people consist of various peoples, tribes and clans, most of whom live in the outback. The original hunters and gatherers also preyed on turtles.
