The art, stories, songs and dances of the Australian Aboriginal culture became well known as part of the Dreamtime, but that is still little understood. The Dreamtime is part of the oral tradition and is only one aspect of the very complex spiritual belief system.
The Aboriginal Dreamtime stories are the verbal form of the spiritual Dreaming, which comprises:
- Art: the visual form,
- Customs: the practical form,
- Music: the acoustic form,
- Totems: the spiritual forms
- Lore: the cultural form,
- Lands: the physical forms.
