Living culture

Kakadu is a living cultural landscape.

Generations of Bininj/Mungguy have lived on and cared for this country for tens of thousands of years. Art, Language, ceremonies, kinship and caring for country are all aspects of cultural responsibility that have passed from one generation to the next, from the Creation time.

Bininj/Mungguy believe that during the Creation time important ancestral beings, known as the first people or Nayuhyunggi, journeyed across the landscape creating the features and landforms, plants, animals and the generations of Bininj/Mungguy we see today.
The land and its people have always been linked.
