Bill Gammage AM is an Australian academic historian. In this Lunchbox/Soapbox presentation, he discusses the mistaken belief that Aboriginal Australians were passive occupiers of the land before European settlement, noting their holistic sense of connection with their environment, and careful use of fire to rejuvenate landscapes and manipulate the movement of fauna.
Tip: In your comment, you can link to a particular point in the video like this: 0m30s for the 30th second, or 4m18s for 4 minutes and 18 seconds in.
I am guessing Gammage is the last of the 'Enlargeners', for sure.
