CIA got it wrong on blackfellas big time.

Censes since abt 1980 have shown an increasing trend by people to identify as Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. Census figure at 2001 was abt 1.5%; and that's only those who choose to put their hand up (natural suspicion of authority/ bureaucrats).

In reality the 2006 census got abt 480,00 or abt 2%. If the test of "identify and acknowledged by peers" were put to the test estimates run at abt 2.5% or 750K , but if disregarded than it'd be abt 6% or greater.

Local languages were abt 350 plus dialects then abt 1500. Currently spoken "in full" abt 100 plus kriols (crossover englishes and standard Aboriginal englishes).

lankarnikanu warra.

BTW the map is upside down otherwise we'd be falling off the planet.
