Quotes about tasmanians (3 Quotes)


    Tasmanians actually abandoned some technologies that they brought with them from Australia and that persisted on the Australian mainland.

    Tasmania lies 130 miles southeast of Australia. When it was first visited by Europeans in 1642, Tasmania was occupied by 4,000 hunter-gatherers related to mainland Australians, but with the simplest technology of any recent people on Earth. Unlike mainland Aboriginal Australians, Tasmanians couldn't start a fire.
