summary | **Summary:**
The content discusses how Western society often lumps together Australian Indigenous cultures into a single, undifferentiated mass, disregarding the vast diversity of tribes (hundreds) and language groups (dozens), as well as the wide range of landscapes inhabited by these peoples, from deserts to tropical regions. This oversimplification also distorts the rich complexity of their mythology, reducing it to a general term ("the Dreaming") that merely signifies pre-European contact.
It then introduces Conomor the Cursed, a historical figure who lived in the first half of the 6th century during the Dark Ages in Brittany (France). At this time, much of Brittany was still covered by primeval forests and dotted with dolmens. The region was characterized by small warlord territories, often less than 40 miles across, and religious beliefs were a mix of paganism and Christianity among the local people. |
