Perhaps more compelling are the cave drawings of the Australian Aboriginies, since these can still be understood by contemporary Aboriginies we have direct evidence of their meaning. Some date back 30,000 years - making Aboriginal culture the longest running continuous culture known. And the oldest surviving vulture known.
how long the aboriginals have been on the scene for is speculation
however their beliefs are not, they are still understood by aboriginies today, they call it 'Dreamtime'. The South-Eastern tribes had a belief in one god, known as ‘father’ or ‘grandfather,’ who is supposed to have created man and the phenomena of nature. He has a son at his side who acts as mediator between him and man
also the Pygmy peoples, who are even older than the Australian Aborigines, recognize and worship a personal and moral Supreme Being
